me and my mate are students and have just started brewing our 1st 40 pints yestarday!
the brewing bucket we have says that the lid should be seald firmly and it has been designed to let gas out through the rim.
but this morning we found the lid blown off, so we made a (very) small hole in the lid to let out the gas!
will it be ok!
and also the brewing kit says to stir the contents in two days to make sure the yeast hasnt settled,and take a hydrometer reading, but a tip sheet that came with the brewing equip says to stir but not agravate the sediment.
errr so what do u guys think.
