  • I am new to home brewing, i am on my 12th brew which is a IPA.

    I originally got into homebrewing for a cheaper way to get drunk, but that changed when i say how much fun it was and found out how much money this hobby is.

    After i went to the store and got the old apple juice, buckets and bakers yeast and puked after 3 weeks of fermentation and bottling, then i went to The Brewers Appearance in Freehold N.J. and spent well over 200 dollars for my first real brew and good equipment i knew it wasn't gonna be cheap and easy, but i knew it was gonna be fun just like cooking.
  • next up for brew is a Amber Ale that i want to experiment with and then after that i will be doing an Oak Imperial Stout.

    Right now i am using extracts. I plain to move up to to all grains soon.

    Set them somewhere at 70 degrees and let them rest for 2 more weeks and then cool them down and

    mileage in the kitchen or for the next batch.You could also forgo all the spices separately and
    get "pumpkin...
