My name is Aaron, and I brew with my friends Brandon and Heath. Bwa-Hah! is an anagram of our initials, and is unfortunately an overused internet affectation of sinister laughter right now. Bad timing.
I got started with Mr. Beer, but now we brew 5 gallon extract batches, and we like to tinker. We use an ale pail for the primary and an unported better bottle for our secondary. Heath built our double-coil wort chiller with pump from $20 worth of parts at the hardware store. If you're thinking of paying $100 for one, let me know and we'll make you one a lot cheaper!
The fermentation and bottling happen in Brandon's basement, and he's planning on converting his fridge down there into a lagering "cave" with an externally controlled thermostat. Until then, we're all ales.
We keep thinking about mini-mash or full-mash brews, but it's pretty difficult finding time just to do it the easy way, so we'll see.
