I did pick up a stainless steel brew kettle as well as a thermometer. And other miscellaneous items as I've progressed. Just do your research before you brew your first batch, and be patient. I really had no patience with my first batch and I wish I had. Obviously this is a great resource and I have found that YouTube has worked really well for me as well. I learned a lot of little things that my LHBS didn't tell me about just by doing some research. And home brewing is heavily addictive.. Best of luck.
My first step was to purchase and read - cover to cover - How To Brew by John J Palmer.

unionrdr said:Not really,21-23 days is about right for an average gravity ale to go through brew day & primary. In other words,with an OG of 1.04X. Good temps & healthy yeast pitch will give that time frame.
This could be a problem. I work off shore. So I'm home for 7 days then I leave for 21 days then back home for 7 days and on and on.
