John from charlotte NC, brewed a couple of gifted Mr. Beer kits years ago and then stopped. (Results weren't too bad). Recently a neighbor gave me a bunch of equipment he no longer uses, 2- 6 gallon carboys, 5 gallon carboy and other odds and ends. So I went to the only brew store I know, ALTERNATIVE BEVERAGE. And spoke to the guy there, got me set up with a dunkel lager extract and partial grain kit and some missing items and away I went.
So last week I started, cleaned and sanitized everything, my fermenter was active all week, yesterday I put it in the secondary (when I opened the primary, I noticed little to no foam, and the sides were not dirty as high up as I thought it would be) again cleaned and sanitized everything....except for the dry hop bag. That gonna come back to haunt me? Also the bag and hops pretty much come all the way to the bottom of the airlock bung, should I do something about this?
I've been reading as much as I could... Already see things I think I did wrong during the cook I'll change on the next. Any tips anyone wants to throw my way.... I'll take. Thanks all!
