thanks for all your help guys

thanks for the quick reply i am going to start brewing soon and have made all th adjustments now i understand the differences between LME and DME as far as ease of use and shelf life but, my next question would be why use both in a recipe if they end up with the same results?

I was going to start a couple of batches i got from a local brew shop and was going over the recipe and found somethings missing. I have a Labatt Blue clone and a Trout river Rainbow Red clone. These were both copied out of Brew Your Own magazine. I had called ahead and had them setup these kits...

so once a keg is tapped and ready it will last about 6 months as long as it is chilled?

well i have an extra small fridge just sitting in my basement and doesnt do a thing, now i'v botteled my 3rd batch of beer and the bottleing process isnt too exciting (that i can remember:drunk: ) so my question is if i make a kegerator setup how long will the beer last in it before going bad?
