    Hi from San Diego, CA

    Hi, I'm probably the typical newbie - my wife got me a 1 gallon starter brew kit. I found my way here from a cigar forum I frequent. I hope to glean as much knowledge from you as possible before I attempt my first brew. I'll take a look around before asking questions. I was also referred to...
