All it takes is to FOLLOW the RECIPE on page one, Let it ferment out, let it sit a few days to a week , then run it.
It really is that easy.
i have nothing against experimentation with washes or discussing different methods, but why make something so simple sound so hard in a tried a proven thread.

Out of curiosity I checked the sample with the Hydrometer and it showed just under 10%. I suppose I cant complain about that for a first attempt, so I'm about to start a 25 or 27 litre TPW and hit the ground running from here on out. I cant wait to run it, but I will leave it another week or so to clear a bit.
