Yes I must admit, a little impatient in wanting to pitch the yeast. I'm confident however that I've got away with it thus far. Racking off and then time spent conditioning will tell I suppose. I'm meticulous come brew days and I even used bottled water, I do need to invest in a digital...

Hello all, this was the recipe that gave me the push to buy the required equipment and give home brewing a go! What a great recipe and I'm really pleased with my first ever attempt; so much so that I've almost finished drinking it all! I learned so much from the forum and the process of...
