New guy starting...built fermentation chamber

[dleader1]

Hi all...the name is Dustin. Just starting out with kits but excited to learn all about the brewing. Started first kit at room temp and realized for best beer, temperature control is necessary, so I built a chamber out of an old mini fridge in the garage. West coast IPA 5 gallon in my ferminator pictured.

Welcome!

A fermentation chamber was also my first project after getting a few beers under my belt.

Welcome to the gang!

We all start out with our first baby steps and hopefully continue to learn with each batch. Kits are a great way to get started and learn the steps needed. I know lots of folks who still brew with kits and are perfectly happy.

You are off to a good start!

Welcome!

It's good to be proactive, and dive into a ferm chamber project. Good temp control is one of the biggest factors in improving brewing.
