    Hi,
    Just after doing my 3rd beer kit brew the 2 previously were coopers and didn't have any hops with the kits.
    I bought a Craft Range golden range kit and brewed it up on Saturday. The mistake I made is that i added the yeast and hops into the fermenting bucket at the same time, stirred them up and put the lid on. I've now read over the instructions and realized it told me to add the hops on day 8 of the fermentation. Will my brew now be ok or is it doomed?

    Thanks for any advise.

    It will be absolutely fine, you’ll lose a little of the hops aroma that’s all.

    Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear its still ok even if it will lose a bit of aroma. I was fearing it would be ruined.
