Hello, I have been surfing these forums for about a year now, and have some specific questions that may have been answered but, I cant find them. Right now I am in the Marines and currently deployed. When I get back to the states I plan on getting a kit and starting to brew. From recommendations here I have been looking at Midwest and debating which kit to buy. I am cheap but, I also only believe in buying something only once. My question to you all is, is the intermediate kit too much to start with? How much of this kits will be upgraded soon enough not to get it first? I see that chillers arent necessary but a lot of posters here recommend them, should I start with one or grow into one? I am also limited by space in the house and an electric stove. Can I get 5 gallons boiling in a 7.5 on an electric stove? I want to do full boils if possible. In the future I want to brew and keg lagers, but currently I dont have the space for SWBMO to let me get another fridge. Any help in getting me started would be nice. Also, anyone in the Jacksonville area mind if come watch one of their brew days?
Matt
