Karp's is a great place... I just really, really hate Larkfield road. I can feel myself tensing up just thinking about driving to Karp's.

Hey sch21c, check out kedco in farmingdale if you havent already. That may be closer to you, and they have a very decent selection. Plus the guy Dave is the man.

East Meadow brewer here. I go into brewing in November and have done 2 extract (with grains), 3 partial mash and 13 all grain BIAB. I'm addicted to this hobby and can't get enough.
My go-to brew store is Kedco in farmingdale, Dave is awesome and definitely knows his stuff. I also stop by Karps if I'm in the area for work.
I'm from East Meadow too
Now living in Merrick
Aside from me of course..
I figured it might be good to know a few brewers on the island so I started this thread. I'm in western suffolk, brew IPAs almost exclusively and have only been brewing about a year, but have about a 15 batches under my belt. Recently went all grain and have been having a blast. I usually hit Karps although my one time at Arbor was great and the woman there was very helpful.

Hey ilikeguns...
just noticed your sig on the first post you were getting ready to brew a Doublejack clone. Has become one of my favorite beers over last year and I'd love to hear how yours turned out...and see the recipe.
Thanks!

I've looked at this recipe before. I have trouble with these big beers lately. I need a container for 1 gallon starters (I usually do 1.5 L in a growler, better than not doing starter but not enough yeast I guess) and oxygen. Then I'll try it.
