New brewer from ohio.

[MiamiValleyBrewer]

New brewer from ohio's miami valley. I been putting together an all grain setup for the past couple months. Built a keggerator and mash tun and stainless pots with valves. I am just waiting to find a deal on a grain mill and go to the brew store and get a bunch of ingredients. Cant wait to get some of the pictures of the stuff i built on here.

Oh hey, just since no one else has said so, Hello and welcome from another new brewer in the lower Miami vallley.

For a new brewer you are really taking the plunge going straigt for all grain I hope to be there in a month or 6 (gardening season, summer fun, etc)

This place seems friendly enough.

Looking forward to seeing some of the pics from your projects. Sounds like you will be spending plenty of time and money and Brewtensils!

Thank for the replies. I was starting to think this wasnt such a friendly place and almost gave up on this forum right away. I decided to go right into all grain so i can do things the right way the first time and not buy a bunch of stuff i wouldnt use after i wanted to upgrade after a couple batches. I am hoping to be brewing my first batch within a month. I have yet to even visit brewtensils homebrew store. been ordering stuff online considering its around the same price as brewtensils and i dont have to burn any of that liquid gold to get what i need. I will be buying all my grain from them though in bulk. Thanks for the replies.

I just dont think there are that many people on here from the Miami Valley area, every time i have needed any help everyone has been great.

Luckily i live pretty close to Brewtensils so i can pick things up pretty easily when i need them, and since im a newb its been pretty often. But you are right the prices online are usually better. But you cant go next door to Belmont Part Supply and grab a sixer or two of some really nice beer when you are picking up your brew supplies.

Brewtensils is my LHBS and I try to support them as much as possible...online doesn't help on brewday when you realize that you are missing an ounce of hops of forgot to order 1/2# of some specialty grain. I like knowing that they are 15 minutes down the road and want to help keep them there.

by the way...welcome to the forum.
