Hey, sorry I'm just now seeing this, I am using Brewski Me because I made it :) What is your user name on there? Mine's "Adam".

SOLD! Thanks riles for the gear!

What kind of keg is that? Ball lock or pin? I'm local, I'll pick it up!

My next beer is going to be the NB Chocolate Stout. It comes with a lb of speciality grains for steeping. I'll probably do 1.5-2 gallons of preboil steeping, then fill up to 6 in my kettle for the boil.

Well guys, 2 weeks in the primary and now it is over in the secondary. Tested and got it to 1.012. I also had to sample it and DAMN! it is tasty!

I'm in Winter Haven, right between Orlando and Tampa. Everything seems to be going alright 48 hours in, lots of activity in the air lock. I brewed the NB Extra Pale Ale extract kit. I haven't been to the homebrew shop in Orlando, but I've ordered a couple of things from them.

Hey fellow Floridian! I'm in Winter Haven.

Hey everyone, I'm Adam and have been reading these forums constantly since I got a NB Deluxe kit for xmas. Brewed my first batch on monday 1/2 and ready to brew some more!

Awesome! great job!

Hello everyone! I just want to say a general thanks to everyone on the forums. I did a ton of reading on here before getting started with my first brew day and it answered the tons of questions I had. I got a Northern Brewers deluxe kit with glass carboys for xmas and ordered the Extra...
