Thanks for all the good advise, I am reading Palmers book now and will probably move to the other suggested reading material next. I am planning a trip to my local home brewing store to look at supplies for my first extract brew.
As far as a specific type of beer I like the most it all depends on the time of year and the mood I'm in. Sometimes I want a wheat beer and then other times I am in the mood for a deep dark stout. Here lately I have been craving a good ESB. I got hooked on them while working in Northern Europe.
I am new to home brewing, I have never brewed any beer. I have been making all types of breads and pizza for many years so I am no newbie to time and temperature management. I just don't know where to start. I want to get a good grasp of the basic skills and builds from there. I am open to all...
I have never brewed beer, I have enjoyed many types of beer from all over for some time and a coworker who brews suggested that I get started. I spent the last few years working on perfecting wood fired pizza so seeing as how well beer and pizza go so well together I was up for the challenge.
