Hello all! I am interested in trying my hand at brewing beer at home, and so found this app to help me reach into the ether for information, advice, and general comments about the process and required resources for making said beer.
I just recently moved to NYC and was wondering what hardware I would need and where to get it. I'm looking to make small batches (Like 3-5 gallons; I assume that's small) and would like to know what you guys consider to be the best book on the subject.
Beer types I'm most interested in crafting: IPA, Porter, Stout, Double Bock, Barleywine, Old Ale, and ESB. I'm interested in trying anything though. As you may have guessed, high ABV beers are what I love, so "Imperial" recipes would be great!
Also, the simplest method of bottling would be cool. I like the idea of growlers or something larger than 12 ouncers, though, if that is easier, I'll definitely just fill a bunch of smaller beers.
I'd also really like to increase my beer knowledge, home-brewing aside, like food parings, specific types, and history.
Thanks a bunch,
-Lester
