Hello!

[NorthernBrewer]

Hi everyone,

I've just bought myself a starter set and am going to attempt my first brew in a week or so! I've joined to get some tips before brewday to hopefully avoid any rookie errors

Looking forward to getting involved on the forums,

NB

Hi welcome to the forum , you can improve your kit by first disregarding your instructions on what temp to ferment at and time to leave it alone .
You need to brew your beer at 18/20c and the more constant the better.
You also need to leave the brew at 18/20c for around 10 to 14 days before bottling or kegging .
Have a good read on the how to guide some very useful tips , good luck with it . :thumb:

Thanks for the welcome chaps! I had a read of the guides and found them really useful :thumb: My FV is now bubbling away merrily; it's going to have to stay in there for 3wks before bottling unfortunately as I'm away, but a bit of googling reassured me that it should be ok!
