Hello everyone from Home Brew Talk!
I've been browsing the forums, reading posts and trying to learn everything I can as a new brewer. I decided it was about time to register and start posting for my self. I am from Milton, Delaware which some of you may know is where the Dogfish head brewery is located.
I started brewing from a Mr. Beer kit that my sister bought me as a present. My beer generally turned out ok, but not great so I decided to expand my production and quality a slight bit. Feeling like the "Mr. Beer" kit is the easy-bake oven of brewing I bought some equipment and am not set up for 5 gallon batches!
I recently completed my first extract kit (from Brewers Best, a Weizenbier) and it is currently conditioning in the bottles. I cracked one open at 6 days and wow what a difference! This encouraged me to brew my second kit, the Red Ale.
Since my current set up is "meh" at best, my next step is I'm looking to buy a propane burner and purchase a used keg that I can convert into a keggle. Where I work is able to do stainless steel welding so I can get a free welding job!
A lot of you guys are very knowledgeable and I hope to learn tons from your experiences!
