- I can't remember what got me into it. I think I came across an ad for Midwest in a magazine. (my first kit came from Midwest). I brewed my first beer in '95. I finally made the move to AG in the last few years. My favorite style of beer is English pale ales. I haven't gotten a tried and true recipe yet. Will I ever? seems I always think "I can do X to make it even better!" Have made meads and ciders too, but with not much success (JOAM was the best result).
- Bitter, Irish Blonde Ale, Bohemian Pils
- American Amber w/ ECY10 and WY1275
- Sweet Stout, Vienna

You won't be able to tell immediately. If something got in it, it would take time for it to
propegate and produce any tell tale signs of infection. There are loads of reference material
for infections...Posted in thread: Why not rack the trub out? on 05-01-2013 at 12:28 AM
