Hello guys, I'm from Portugal and I got into brewing last year since I had nothing better to do during quarentine. It started before when I tried craft beer for the 1st time and it was simply the best beer I had tried till that moment (in fact that brew pub is still my favourite) and it completely changed my percetion of what's a beer. I always thought "super bock" (which is a typical commercial lager from Portugal) was like the best and you only had lagers, and some stouts that I used to call "black beer" but I luckily I've found this world, and decided to join it. I started with some simple brew kits but quickly I realized that I wanted to have much more control and decided to buy an all in one 35L eletric kettle, which was one of my best purchases ever. I did some beers with my friends in this kettle and suddenly corona virus peaked in Portugal and we were unable to do beer for several months (we're still in quarentine atm). From the beers I did during this time, I can say we did several mistakes. We didn't care for fermentation temps, and here in portugal we hit 12 celsius during the winter, so one of the main reasons why the beers didnt end up being great, and also beer pH, I guess. Still the beers were drinkable and I enjoyed them. Right now, I'm trying to fix this problems by building a fermentation chamber, buying a pH meter and reading several books like How to brew, and also planning reading more after it. I expect to learn a lot from you, and I would appreciate any recommendation, like what should I really try to improve in brewing, the most important equipments to buy, and the best books to learn from. Thanks for having me, hope we have a good time.
