Welcome Drew! I agree with Hammy, that's not a bad kit for the price. I actually bought a smaller kit from Monsterbrew.com and then I got a turkey fryer from home depot for the boil. Of course I keep adding cool new stuff as I learn. Use that Kit and make a few batches, and soon you will be...

I want!!!!

Hey, welcome! I'm in San Diego

sorry, OG = 1.06 - yeah that temp had me worried, I was suprised it went that high, anyway maybe I will just ride it out and see what happens. Maybe it will turn out awesome!! Thanks for the quick replies!!

Ok so I'm a noob, on my 3rd batch and I felt like my process went really well, no issues finished it up around 8:00 pm, the next morning it had a pretty nice fermentation going, bubbling pretty heavily. But... By 5:00 PM nothing!! It had Krausen but not what I was used to seeing, so I decided to...

Hung out at Stone Brewery tonight, so lucky to have world class beer so close!!

Brewed some Honey Blonde Ale, in honor of my daughters B-day (like I need a reason to brew!!) I didn't use my new keggle for this beer, next one for sure!!

Buying a Keggle today - Yay!

Every question I ever typed in to Google about home brewing was already answered on these forums - and I asked a lot!!

Welcome! Brewing does rock! I'm part awesome on my fathers side too, how weird is that?

On my first batch, I "loosely" followed a recipe and I actually just decided to add 1 pound of honey after the boil (just to see what would happen) and it ended up at 8% ABV. I knew from the furious fermentation the ABV was going to be elevated. Anyway... The beer came out great! I just bottled...

Welcome! I'm new here too also in SD, just bottled my second batch on Saturday. These forums are awesome! Any QUAFF members here??

This is a great "hobby" "addiction" "passion", what ever you call it just go for it you won't regret it! I'm bottling my second batch tomorrow, the first one came out great. This will also teach you patience, since the time between making your brew to drinking your brew is a couple of months...

Hey Rob, welcome! I used to live in Bremerton, I miss it!

Hey Tim, you're right down the street from me
