Hey folks,
First, I want to say "Cheers!" to everyone on these boards. I've been reading for several months now, and the thoughts and experiences shared have been very valuable.
By reading the beginner forum for a while, I got the encouragement to try an extract kit (Northern Brown Ale, came out pretty good). I did a total of three kits last year, and with more help from these boards I converted a 10 gal cooler mash/lauter tun. I've made two all-grain 5-gal batches since Jan 1, and planning another batch soon.
The science aspect of the hobby fascinates me, and of course the drinking part is fantastic too. :cross: I've read a bit of literature (Papazian, Palmer, Daniels, Miller, etc.), and these boards really help it sink in and connect the dots. So, cheers to you, and thanks for helping this homebrewer get started!
