New novice brewer introduction

[BrianS]

Good day,

My name is Brian S. I live in Edmonton, Alberta Canada. I am new to home brewing, having almost completed my first brew. I bottled the product a few days ago, and now just have to wait to sample. I am brewing with a complete Grainfather system incl. Grainfather Chiller & Grainfather Conical Fermenter.

Thank you in advance for any help and tips I may receive.

Brian

Hi Brian, and welcome. What style was your first batch, and what are you looking to do next?

 

[BrianS]

Hello Pappers and thank you. My first batch is a Northern American Lights Ale. I will attempt an Amber style brew starting tomorrow

Cool. We're drinking a hoppy version of an American Amber now, we experimented with a new-to-us hop called Julius, paired with Cascade, and it is really orange-y.

Next weekend we will be tasting the first brew. Needless to say that I can hardly wait to see how it turns out. I bottled it into 22 750 ml bottles a few days ago. It is now moved into my kitchen pantry to finish up at appx 20 C.
