Step 1 Complete - Onward to Fermentation
So I’ve moved on to step two of my home brewing experiment - fermentation. After the wort is created, it is put inside a keg with yeast to ferment for a few weeks. I’m so excited to see how this is going to turn out. I’ll make another post for the next step!

Right on!
I brewed for 12 years and it was awesome.
One thing we always did was to top up the carboy with water to reduce the amount of oxygen during the first part of the process. Yeast does need some oxygen but the less there is, the lower chance of airborne bacteria to get involved. Plus, makes for a couple more pints in the batch!
Good luck and looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Thanks for the tips!! That makes sense I did add a few gallons of water to the wort but next time I’ll try filling it up even higher.
