Can't wait to get started

This came in today and can't wait to start experimenting

 

[LesTom]

Finally made my mind up on what beers I want to brew first and have bought the required grains, hops and yeasts for the following:-

Everyday IPA
Edelweiss
Belgian Tripel

Now is there is such a thing as a three headed coin that I could flip which could help decide which of these 3 to brew first? :-?

I'd probably go for the IPA first. There's more scope for things to go wrong with a Tripel, and IPAs can be more forgiving.

Yep, I'll take your advice and go with the IPA first. Helps of course that I'm very partial to IPA's :thumb:

Plus it's a nice summer pint

Does the book have info on the best yeast to use for each recipe?

Probably a bit to late now but i would be inclined to go with the one that would need the longest conditioning time ( usually the highest ABV ).

 

[chub1]

Yup, i would kick off with an IPA,they do seem to be somewhat more forgiving than even bitter:thumb:

Yep, the book lists the ideal yeast for each recipe and an alternative if you can't get the ideal one.

Well yes... if the coin comes to rest upright on its edge, make the Belgian. Incredibly unlikely I know, but that's a good thing cos Belgian beers are horrible.

Just a bit of friendly advice. Honestly, some folk go out of their way to make life complicated and difficult for themselves.

I am extremely interested in the substance for this assertion.

Would you care to inform us all further?
