Hi all,
this is my first post ever in this forum. Like other forums I belong to, I look forward in interacting with all of you, and helping others once I get my foot on the ground!
With that being said, I have absolutely zero experience in this hobby, but I love the thought of being a part of it. Would some of you kindly tell me what I will need to buy (and your favorite companies that supply them - if that's okay to post on this forum) in order to get started with all grain brewing? I am not interested in the kits at all. I want to be making it from scratch.
I thought I'd also mention, I am not afraid to purchase the right equipment. I don't have a ton of money to get started, but I could go up to probably $700-$1,000, which I know isn't a ton but if it could help me bypass starter equipment, I'd like to go that route. So please let me know your thoughts on the higher end equipment needed.
A friend of mine told me I should start with these items:
-All Grain Brewing System (stainless steel)
-Stainless Steel Immersion Wort Chiller
-Gravity Testing Kit
-21" Stainless Steel Spoon
I'm happy to add additional items to this. Again, I'd much prefer to buy the right equipment right off the bat. If you have specific companies/places to buy from, I'd be very happy to hear so I can be pointed to the right direction when I purchase - that is, if it's okay to post things like that in this forum.
I'm looking forward in being a part of this community! Thanks for having me.
