Simple Recipes - Need A Win!

I’m fairly new to brewing and I think I bit off way more than I can chew recently. I’ve been at this for a year now and it started off great but the last 2 batches have not gone my way.

1st bad brew was not a complete loss but the ABV came out significantly lower than I intended. I was aiming for 6.5% ABV but came out to 3% ABV. It totally drinkable, just not what I wanted.

Unfortunately the 2nd bad brew was lost due to contamination. Ive never dealt with this issue before but I’ve purchased new tubes since I noticed the other ones looked a bit cloudy and old. Hopefully this paired with some deep cleaning will fix that issue moving forward.

Both cases have been good learning experiences but I think I need to dial it back a bit.

Basically, I need a win! Any straight forward and fun recipes you recommend?

Cheers!
