Just wondering if we have any beer brewing members? I'm starting to get into it and just wanted to know if I posted questions here if anyone would be able to help.
That sounds great. I'm really a noob at this. Could you please please explain all that about aerating and hydrating before pitching the yeast. I know what aerating is but I have no idea how to do it to wort or how to hydrate.I made a cream ale when I was new to brewing that was nice and light, reminiscent of a lager, though an ale. Scaled down, it'd be:
1 lb Light Pilsen DME
1.37 AAU Willamette @ 45
1.37 AAU Willamette @ 5
1/2 pack of US-05
Make sure to aerated REALLY well before pitching the yeast, and rehydrate. Should end up dry and mildly hoppy.
