This will be my first RIS so I have some questions about aging and such. I only keg at this point so would any of these scenarios work? 1) 30 days primary follow by 6-8 months in a secondary and then keg 2) 30 days primary then keg an let it condition. 3) 30 days primary and then screw it...buy...

Spot on about the IPA, Porter and Golden Ale.

Then you are even closer to Cape Cod Beer...Yarmouth is the next town over from Hyannis. Also...on Rt. 28 in Hyannis is Moonshine Liquors. They have a decent assortment of craft beers. http://www.moonshineliquorscapecod.com/

Most any package store on the Cape will have growlers of Cape Cod Beer (Hyannis) and sixes of Mayflower Beer (Plymouth). They are the 2 larger local breweries. I'm not as familiar with Falmouth as I'd like to be so I don't have any package store recommendations from that area. I live only 20...

Last name is Fenton. I've played guitar most of my life so in school I was nicknamed "Fender". Since Fender is taken on just about every board i have joined I came up with Fenduh which is the way most people pronounce it. Being in MA I should have gone with "Fendah"

Looking forward to this. Will definitely make it.

I use Domino Dots to carb and bottle right from the fermenting bucket. I've done my last dozen batches this way and they work great.

Eh...you've seen one, you've seen four.

Wiring was straight forward. I have a 30A GFCI breaker and the 2 hot leads are attached to the input and then then out to the socket... For ventilation I'm using the stainless steal mixing bowl design with great success. I've changed the flexible "foil" duct out for straight pipe and...

This is true. I typically only do 3 gallon batches. My neighbor, who's an electrician and helped me wire my electric brewery in my basement, wanted the smoked porter and he has a kegerator so I figured a 5 gallon batch. I was mentioning what a pain it would be (I originally was going to do...

If you stick to 5 gallon batches and sub 1.070 beers you should be fine with a 5 gallon mash tun. I've used a 5 gallon mash tun for the past year up until my neighbor wanted an Imperial Smoked Porter that needed 17lbs of grain. He bought me the 10 gallon beverage cooler from HD so I could pull...
