Looking to start brewing my first batch, have all necessary equipment.
Weather doesn't look too good for me to brew outside with my propane burner......as it is I am planning on just using at most 3 gallons in a 5gallon pot to brew. Once I get it cooled down close to 100*F, I was going to add additional COLD water to bring it down to pitching temp.
Question is- can I just simply do that on my natural gas stove top? Brew my 3 gallon wort on the kitchen stove and then adding the cold water to total volume of 5 gallons as called by receipt. Stove is capable of bring a big pot of soup to rolling boil when i've boiled pasta and soups in the past.
I will be brewing Irish Red Ale.
