I've only checked OG twice, Its not as important FG when brewing w/ extract because all of your sugars should be there, you just need to know when its done.
Definitely. The yeast preparation is about 3.5 hours. The total fermentation time will be somewhere around a week. I'm headded to the Reno Home Brewing Company today to pick up some more malt hops and yeast. Give me a call. I would like to see/help/ you with the making of the wort. Like I said before though, I am not yet an experienced brewer. I am going to start another batch tomorrow.
