Hydrometer you'll get one eventually.cheers for the replies everyone..
this one made me smile..from Pawlo7671
yeah I always do things back to front.. I'm a bit special (plus I still can't do that right either )
so I have read everything, and looked at the link from chippy_tea which was awesome, just to make sure I've understood correctly (as stated above I'm a bit special :) )...
- I don't need an airlock
- I don't need a hydrometer
- I shouldn't use normal sugar
SO
- Do I close the lid and make sure its tight shut so nothing can get in or out or place it on the top so it can breath and not explode if I'm not using an airlock?
- I guess I don't need an hydrometer but you all recommend I get one anyway? (to be honest there is no point me asking that, I'm gonna just get one, there are cheap enough)
- So I can nip in wilko (I might as well go there I walk past it everyday on my way to work.. I'm miles away from an home brew shop) and buy some brewing sugar?
I've seen people also add brew enhancer... is this something I should buy too or don't I really need it just yet.
Brewing enhancer not necessary, just brew your kit as is.
After you pitch your yeast snap the lid until it starts which could be anything up to 48hrs but keep checking and you'll know when it does.
You could also keep it loosely fitted an mighty wrap some clingfilm around to seal and this will give you an indication of CO2 activity.
