Hi,
Got my first ag bubbling away but I have a few questions that I need to ask,
1.The wort I ran off into my cube was significantly less than 23L (about 15L), beersmith tells me to start my boil at 27L but according to what I got I should start at 31L. Is this large loss of water common with crown urns, if not should I go with the boil size that beersmith throws out?
2. When I added the yeast, the wort might have been a little warmer then what it should have been ( about 30 degrees), with us-05 will this high pitch temp cause any bad flavours?
Edit: another question I forgot
3. When I was transferring from cube to fermenter I don't think it got sufficient aeration, will this effect the brew?
Thanks in advance.
