Haha exactly! Which is why I say "not much of a guarantee." Not saying I don't like them, or even passing "review" on them.

And now I find out I can't see a phone number for Brooklyn Brew Shop, AND they aren't answering emails. Not saying they have jumped ship (obviously they haven't -- they seem more or less good) but they aren't prompt about emailing a quick reply! Also I perused their shipping info on their...

Well I'm still waiting on my brew kit from Brooklyn Brew Shop. There was a delay that was their fault (took 3-4 days for them to ship the pkg) but yesterday UPS must have just thrown the package (with glass carboy) on my doorstep. We weren't there, BUT he must have heard it break, and he just...

Wow very helpful information, everyone. Seems like best would be as stated above to just throw a NG burner into the Bayou I just purchased (ie, replace the whole burner). Then (separate step of course) prepare the house so I can use the natural gas line that appears to be present off my back...

Is there a way to use the natural gas from my house (just bought/moved in, so not sure of the plumbing for it) for my turkey fryer (brewer)? I know the Bayou Classic 32Q I have is for propane and I know they aren't directly interchangeable (if at all). I know there are natural gas fryers...

I did get one of these: thermometers. Just shipped yesterday.

Thanks japhroaig! I am not sure yet when I'll be brewing... probably on some Saturday (to give myself plenty of time for the first time). The reality of having 5 whole gallons of beer has kind of just hit me! Ha! Obviously I know what to do with it, but I'm not sure where it'll be put in the...

That is the plan. $160 isn't SO Bad I guess. I have a HB buddy here who _might_ use one, and I might borrow it for first run. Just to see... Got plenty of other stuff to buy.

Nearest turkey fryer to me on craigslist is 226 miles away. O_O (but I had already looked ;) )

Agree on all points above. :D I know all-grain isn't typically "beginner" but I'm stubborn (stupid) in that way. I plan to either buy a fryer or borrow one (surprisingly living in the deep south I don't know of anyone who has one ;) )

Not sure what you mean by "wrong type of ingredients"... Can you explain a little more? Not sure this is the ingredients list, but here is the instruction: http://brooklynbrewshop.com/directions/Brooklyn%20Brew%20Shop%20-%20Well%20Made%20Tripel%20Instructions%205%20Gal.pdf

Thanks....

I'm getting nervous that I have gotten into a very expensive (on the front end) hobby.. And that the jury-rigged setup I'll have won't get the job done (according to the nice setups on youtube etc).

what does this mean "in the process of carbing". What is carbing? Thanks!!!

Thanks for the quick reply! 1) bottles, I can get. :D Is there a good reason not to get the hinge style bottles? Or will they work just fine? 2&3) I am thinking I can borrow a turkey fryer (friend homebrewer might use this). If not I might buy this one: Bayou Classic 9195 32 Quart...

I am a complete newbie, and jumping in to all grain brewing. I got a kit from Brooklyn Brew Shop https://brooklynbrewshop.com/ (Specifically A Well Made Tripel and the Bel-Gin Strong), so I have whatever comes with that kit (which is as follows: 5 Gallon Glass Carboy, 6.5 Gallon Bucket w/...
