your brew system is awesome... I wish I had something like that setup, but I'm relatively new to homebrewing... so give me some time.. hehehe... what part of Virginia are you in...??
We do make it to the beach now and then but haven't used homebrewusa much. I order all my grain directly from a malting company and the rest of my needs generally come from northerbrewer. Nothing against homebrewusa, just a convenience factor I guess.
We need to get a summer area brewers party going... there are quite a few brewers in the area. I think Dude did one last year.
