Gents, I'm going to have a bash at Clibit's simple AG on Friday (our lass is at work on Friday evening, so got the place to myself). I called in after work last night and got myself a kilo of Maris Otter, a packet of Goldings and a sachet of Gervins Ale Yeast. Before I jump in, I've just got a couple of questions...
OK, that was 3 questions, not a couple.... sue me.!! :grin:
I should add; I've already got a kit in an FV and this is solely to play about. If it goes **** up, I'm not too worried... nothing ventured and all that.
- I've got a 5l stock pot which is fine for the mash and the sparge, but the boil will be about 6l of wort. Can the boil be split over 2 pans if I use the same size ring under both pans?
- As I'll only be using part of the packet of hops, cn the others be kept if I wrap them up again and store them in a tight tupperware box on their own?
- I'll also only be using 3g of an 11g sachet of yeast. My scales don't measure fractions of a gram, so how crucial is it that I only use 3g? If I'm over, does it matter and how far over could you go before it becomes a problem?
