What do i need. Any perfect starting recipes, books that i need to get? please help me out, i dont know too much about this, but very interested!! thanks ..... Rico

Hey Rico. I'm still pretty new to this whole thing but I think I can help a little. I really like the book The New Complete Joy of Home Brewing by Charlie Papazian. It's easy to follw and it offers a lot of room to grow(it has intermidiate and advanced too). It has an outline of all the things that you'll need to get started. Next you need to find your local home brew store. There you'll find all the things that you will need.
If you really want to get cooking once you get all your tools( really large pot, carboy, strainers, plastic closed fermenter, air lock, hose, bottles and caps), you can just buy a kit. It will have all you need in it and have a recipe with directions.
Trust me you'll love it and find yourself like me daydreaming on the next batch. Good Luck.
