Hello All,
I have completed a dozen extract brews. All have turned out drinkable. Some better than others. I am happy with my progress but cant help wondering if my brews might be better going AG. I'm not afraid to spend some cash on my new favorite hobby, but I'm not sure where to throw my money at. Ill be honest I don't know squat about the AG method. Well, maybe a bit more than squat but not much more. So, its prob smarter to do research than just throw money around randomly.
Ive seen the awesome 3 keg set ups in the DIY forum. Don't fully understand all the lingo (herms, rims, etc) but it seems to be the "ultimate" in the home brew set up. At least to my untrained eyes, they sure look cool.
Ill list my equipment in case this helps.
8G SS brew pot
2 kegs - soon to be converted
Chiller- coiled copper immersion
60K BTU turkey fryer
2 mini fridges that fit one carboy each, with controllers for both
Various carboys, hop spider, stir plate, etc...
I dont mind doing my own research, actually I'm enjoying the learning process, reminds me of college. I am unsure of where to go from here. If anybody could point me in the right direction Id be grateful.
I dont mind taking my time in the transition, Im fairly happy with the extract.
Any thoughts, comments, or advice will be greatly appreciated.
