Hi all.
Just last weekend a buddy and I were sitting in my living-room drinking beer, when it suddenly struck me that it would be alot of fun to brew some beer of my own. I've been a beer coniseur(beer-snob,lol) for years now, so it just seems like the right thing to do to try my hand at brewing.
The next day, I went to my local brew supply store and got a kit with a 6.5g primary, secondary with bottling spiget, hydrometer, siphon, etc, a 3.3lb can of muntons amber malt extract, and a can of muntons "Yorkshire Bitter"hopped malt, yeast and priming sugar. Got that batch fermenting now.
Then I got to reading about AG. Went out and got all the grain, hops, yeast and priming sugar for a batch of Heffe Weizen
Converted a cooler for sparging, got 2 5.5g pots, candy thermometers, etc. Paid like $190 all said and done , but I think I have everything I need now.
I've found a TON of useful info on this board. I'd apreciate any advise you all can give.
