Okay, got my kit and I'm ready to brew my first batch this weekend. A couple questions for you guys that know this stuff.
- I will be using the glass carboy for the fermenting stage. Correct? - Then I will siphon it into the plastic bucket for the bottling process after the fermentation period (1 week? Or was that 2 weeks? - need to go back to John Palmer's site for reference). Do I have this right? The reason I ask is that the plastic bucket also has a hole in the top for the airlock. My understanding is that I should ferment in the carboy and transfer to bucket after this stage in order to get rid of some of the sediment prior to bottling. - Its okay to pour hot boiled water into the glass carboy?
