Hi, My name is Chad Quantrell and I live in Washington State. I'm doing some research so hopefully I can get some decent equipment ordered and start Brewing, any advice on which equipment or kits I should get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chad

Welcome! Do a search for 'Starter Kit' on here and you should get lots of info.

If you can, get a starter kit from your LHBS (local home brew store) they can answer the numerous questions you are bound to have. The only thing I would add to a starter kit is an auto siphon (for transferring to secondary and bottling bucket).

Good Luck and we're here to answer your questions.

I'm not much for plastic fermenters, but that is a whole nother thread. I would recommend a glass carboy or two if you can afford it, a bottling bucket, an auto siphone, air lock, and bungs (HA-HA I said bung), 4' tube, a capper, a blow off tube, Bottle filler W/ a valve, and a good book for starters (The joy of home brewing by Charlie Papazian the first 50 pages should get you started)
That will get you started.....

Hey quantrellc,
I envy you for how close you are to Walking Man in Stevenson. Welcome to the forum. Your best bet for a LHBS is probably Vancouver or Portland I would Imagine? As Wolf said, go ahead and do a seach for starter kits and you should find the info you need. if you have any questions along the way, please feel free to ask. There are a lot of folks on this sight that can provide a wealth of knowledge.
