Hello everyone...Just getting into brewing here and will be starting my first batch when I receive my Co2 tanks and 10 gallon pot. Have a couple questions and any help would be greatly appreciated. First off, any suggestions on a fairly simple blonde or maybe amber recipe ale good for a first time brewer.
I would prefer to go lager but I think my house stays at too warm of a temperature to do so. My house usually sits right around or a little above 70 and I don't have a warm enough place to ferment outside this time of year. Comments on this?
Lastly, Would you guys recommend buying ingredients from a LHBS or online? I've heard to be wary of online buying because you can never be sure what you're getting. On the other hand I've heard a lot of good things about a few sites such as midwest.
Thanks in Advance!
