It's extract. I'm pretty comfortable with that process now, so I'm interesting in mashing and lagering in the future.
Any specialty grains at all?
I'm a proponent of the low and slow method of carbonating. The beer will probably improve from some time conditioning in the keg anyways.
6 gallon boil, 5 gallon batches. Perfect combo for a 10ga capacity brew kettle.
What happens to the gallon you lose between the boil and the final batch?
Hmm, I guess I've never experienced that since I use a lid.
Sipping my first kegged beer now. I'm sold. I'll still bottle occasionally as gifts or to see how well it ages, but I'm kegging all the way.
How easy are they to cork? I also have some Cabernet grapes that I'm growing, and the bottle corkers that I've looked into were ridiculously expensive.
