Hello from Finland!
I started homebrewing in 2017 after taking a full day course, so I jumped straight into all grain BIAB. Been reading this forum the whole time now and then since there's usually topics to be found here on any question that might arise. I'm still by no means an expert in anything but with 100+ batches done and huge improvements in my own beers over the years I figured I might as well start posting now and then since I could actually contribute with something, because I've found so much help and good information here myself.
I've been into craft beer for 10+ years and have always been quite picky with the quality. If I don't like something I pour it out. This led me to just give away lots of beer in the beginning of my brewing, because I didn't like it enough to drink it myself. It's easy to get rid of beer when you hand it out for free though lol. Apart from a couple batches none have been complete disasters though.
I tend to brew quite simple styles now just to improve technique. I brew on a Grainfather G30 (10-19 L batches), my "main" fermenters is a Fermzilla Allrounder and a SS Brew Bucket. I keg and brew with RO water. Next big thing on the "to-do" list is a dedicated Keezer, which hopefully happens later this summer.
Right now I have a NEIPA on tap, a Kölsch that has conditioned for one week and just kegged a Belgan Pale ale. Next brew will probably be a west coast(ish) IPA.
Here's my NEIPA, which I'm drinking right now. Cheers!
