Awesome. Thank you to all that replied. I am a go for a full boil! Haha, yea I see this definitely happening. It seems that there is always something on sale or a 'good deal' that you just cant pass up. With my construction background I know that having the right tool will make your job...

I have my inaugural brew set for this Thursday night! I can't wait (however SWMBO may be able to wait.) I have been planning this pretty carefully as to what equipment I need and what not but I am unclear about 1 thing. I planned on doing a full-boil of a northern brewer extract kit...

Going off this thread as it sort of pertains to a question I have. I have been amassing equipment before my first brew and I believe it is finally going to happen this Thursday night! :ban: But in regards to aerating the wort before yeast pitch, I ordered this guy from AHS and I was wondering...

Couch to 5K has been great for me. It is has been quite a literal translation. I'm gearing up for this guy at the end of January... http://warriordash.com/ Anyone else here ever done this race? I have a feeling that this might be popular with this forum... :mug:

This is pretty cool to hear. Yuengling is definitely one of my 'go-to' brews. I have always referred to them as 'Jang-langs'. It is a great light beer. And good for them sticking to their guns! It makes me appreciate them that much more.

I have access to RO water and I have been wondering about this myself. I was planning on using all RO water. Do you have an idea about how much of what minerals you would need to add to the RO water for the beer to turn out alright? I'm hoping to start my first brew this weekend. Thanks!

Pirates vs. Ninjas... although it has seemed that pirates might have taken this one due to all the wenches and booze they get...

Yea I pulled the trigger on the $40 Bass Pro Shops special. I'm still currently purchasing all my equipment for my first brew and this seemed like a steal to me because pots alone that size are pretty expensive. I'll let you all know how it works when it gets in!

Hell yea! That is awesome man. :rockin:

What up everyone!! I'm a brand new homebrewer in the Jupiter, FL area and I am stoked to start my first batch! Technically it will be my second batch, I was a Molecular and Microbiology major in college and in my Cell Phys class my professor had us brew beer for our lab final!! Best prof...
