New to brew from Bakersfield CA!

[Burno]

Researched for a couple months then jumped right in to AG. Scary, but extremely fun. Does anyone have suggestions on a good AG to brew? First batch was Nut Brown Ale, it is bottled right now. Just brewed an American Wheat last Sunday.

Welcome to the forums. Born and raised in Shafter. I still have family in Bakersfield. Good luck controlling your fermentation temps. If you brew darker beers it is easy to hide some imperfections in your brewing. Try a stout or a porter and before you know it it will be cool enough to drink a nice heavy beer.

welcome, what style of beer do you like. You have a brown and wheat, it is certainly hot down there right now. What about a Pale Ale?

Welcome to HBT, I spent a few years in Bakersfield....I'm sorry.

Yes, it's very hot here! Thinking about a red ale next Humann. Then maybe go to something a little darker.
Hey 1234 my parents live right outside Shafter, go there all the time I got a pretty good handle on fermentation temps I think. I bought an old standup freezer and got a Johnson Control hooked up to it. Works really great.

Welcome to the forum. Glad to see one more form bako. Went AG right away? nice way to do it.

I did a red ale last month but added wyeast roeselare blend. Brewed a cream ale last weekend and a golden strong is on deck when the cream ale is done in the chamber.

I think we are doing a red next then a hef. That's funny you mentioned a cream ale. I was just talking about that with my brew partner. We may try one soon in the future.
