I am sure more experienced brewers make less mistakes and can trouble shoot better. But that's why we have this forum I think. In the end it's "just" brewing beer. And like so many things it appears to me its easy to learn and hard to master. After all if those uneducated folks in the middle...

I am also switching to AG after my first batch. While I like the process of an extract brew, I didn't care for the lack of control over the final product. And all the extra stuff I bought I can re-utilize should I for some strange reason not want to brew anymore.

So I just started brewing, but long-time beer drinker since I was 12. After reading the Jester keezer thread over the duration of three days, I decided that I really want one. My plan is to have something that looks good enough to put in the house, due to local home regulations enforced by...

I'm new and in! :)

I have been reading the forums for a few weeks now, after my friends in NV and WA got me interested in brewing. I also figured the membership is already worth it, just because the entertainment I got from the non-pay forums is already 50+ hours, and am looking forward to what I can discover in...
