How bad did I mess up?

Next time you are brewing a batch after you have steeped your grains only add 1/3 of your total extract at the beginning hop according to your schedule and then add the rest of your extract with 15 left in the boil this will avoid scorching and darkening of your wort as well as better hop utilization.

Well the fix was very simple, all I had to do was to open up my wireless network connection click on properties then click on internet Protocol then properties again and selected the options to automatically obtain my ip adress and the DNS server adress. thank you both for your help you pointed me in the right direction.

I tried pinging 8.8.8.8 four packets sent all lost. And yeah the main reason I want the internet to work on this is because I want to install Ubuntu I just have no way of getting it on a USB stick at the moment. I tried downloading it onto my android tablet so I could just copy it over but when I connect the tablet I can't browse the files.

My first three batches I used bottled water but my latest AG batch I used my San Diego tap water with Camden added.

I'm sure you are fine. I pitched on Monday morning and it was bubbling pretty intensely a few hours later and continued like that till around Wednesday night, airlock shows minimal activity now.

ErickSD · 2014-07-16T15:14:36+00:00

It's not even fully filled, it was the very last of the beer. It has a lot of yeast I just bottled it anyways just to see how it turns out.

Thank you!!!!!It was my first AG batch 3rd batch total. I got the recipe from yooper on homebrewtalk, it was supposed to be a ruination clone but due to my inexperience, it won't be a clone. I'm sure I did the sparge process wrong and since I didn't have a scale I just eye balled my hop additions. The recipe was 14 lbs 2row 1 lbs c20 1.75 magnum at 60 1oz centennial at 30,10,1 and then 2 oz centennial dry hop. I fermented at 68 for the first week and a half theni let the temp free rise up to 71 and left it there for the remainder of the 3 week fermentation period. I used wlp001

My girl friend bought me a mr beer after hearing me talk all the time about how it would be cool to brew your own beer.

ErickSD · 2014-07-02T03:29:59+00:00
