Finally Back To Homebrewing

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME TIME COMING!

I began home brewing at age 21 using the good ol' Brewers Best eguipment kit. This of course was only the beginning. After a large number of batches, brewed in rapid succession (mmm beer), I decided to expand to better and much bigger equipment.
blah...blah...blah...blah.....
Anyway...I became the assistant brewer and pilot brewer for a local micro. After a year I was offered a brewers position for another micro(mo$ much better beer!!!). Hell yeah I took it... But I soon became a father ...and brewers hours are not conducive to parenting when one parent works a different shift...blah...blah...went back to school for computers ...blah...blah... stopped brewing ...blah...blah... after 7 years I'm back :rockin: and looking to learn and relearn all I can...and of course make and drink Great Beer

Cheers

WE GOT A BORN-AGAIN-BREWER HERE!!!

Welcome back...maybe you can contribute some info on the ups and downs of a professional brewer? I know I'd be interested.

Humm, this story sounds a little familiar. Maybe I read it on this board or it was a drunken flashback from another life. Either way, welcome back to the jungle. May your re-entry be joyful and painless. As for a bigger system, well, blah, blah, blah.

Welcome friend!

Welcome back and welcome to HBT.
Sounds like we will be asking you for advice...

THANKS FOR THE WELCOME...I WILL BE GLAD TO CONTRIBUTE AND ANSWER QUESTIONS WHEN I CAN... BUT I THINK THAT MUCH OF MY CONTRIBUTION WILL BE IN THE QUESTIONS/DILEMMAS THAT I HAVE... STARTING WITH THE BUILDING OF A STREAMLINED 1/2 BBL BREWERY...HEADIN' TO THE EQUIPMENT SECTION.
