I'm going to be returning to the university of Rochester this September and I'm hoping to brew in my suite. I figured I'd put all 4ish topics into one big thread
1: does anyone have some gently used equipment they'd like to unload. I'd love free P), but if you'd like beer or a reasonable amount of money, that could be arranged. I'd need basically everything as the equipment I'm using at home belongs to a friend.
2: any highly recommended LHBS in the area? (Testimony is appreciated)
3: I'm going to be brewing in a super small space. I'll have two electric burners, a sink and about a 5x5 kitchen area. So any suggestions/tips on how to simplify my brewing process to fit into a dorm? I'm doing extract brewing for convenience and I'm used to the luxury of a full kitchen so I'm a bit spread out right now. Also right now, my bottling is a bit...well wet. Beer and water and liquid everywhere. So suggestions there'd be good. Maybe a big plastic bin to contain the mess...
4: any brew suggestions that utilize the local specialties? I'm thinking something with apple as Rochester is apple country and I could pick some up at the local farmer's market
Thanks guys
