Another Hello From Tampa!

PassionForThePint · Mar 23, 2011

I'm new here and pretty new to brewing - two batches in. One was an IPA, the other a coffee stout.

Right now, I'm absorbing as much info as I can from books and web and really wishing I discovered home brewing sooner.

Welcome to forum. It's a fun hobby. I'm sure you'll find plenty of information here to absorb. If you have any questions just throw em on out there. Most folks here are more than happy to help. Don't know if you've found it yet, but I highly reccommend "How to Brew" by John Palmer. It's a book. It's how I learned to brew. And it's a great resource. There is a free online version. Here's the site:

Good Luck with Your Brew.....Cheers

Thank you very much for the welcome the good luck wishes! There is a whole lot to absorb and learn, but I can't think of anything that I would want to study more!

I actually have that book sitting on my night stand and have started reading it.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forums from your neighbor. It's about time we got some more Tampa (area) people in here.

Yes, welcome from another in the Tampa area.

Welcome! I am further north up towards Gainesville. Lots of Florida folk on here!

Thanks for all the welcomes. It's great to see other Tampa and Florida people here, now I know where to go when I start to get worried about the increase temperatures outside this summer and how it's affecting my beer.
