whats up everyone, glad i found this forum because i have now- and will have many Q's down the road. im on my 3rd home brew, first 2 came out great aside from lack luster carbonation.. but i really enjoy brewing! been a huge beer head for about 7 years now- and always looking for new stuff. i actually work for Western NY's largest Beer distributor too, go figure.

anyways cheers!

Greetings and welcome to the obsession. How long did you leave those first 2 alone to carbonate? What were they?

My club is actually having the monthly social in Hamburg tomorrow (mammoser's)

Hey, I live in Lake View!
Buffalobrewer, what club? Mammosers is a great place, great beer selection and awesome wings.

I'm in the Elmwood Village.... How does one get an invite to this brew gathering?

 

[buffalobrewer]

Sultans of Swig is the club, consider yourselves invited. Most people show up between 7-7:30. This is the monthly social so we don't bring samples of our beer. The regular meeting are at Gene McCarthy's where we do bring samples of our beer for tasting/analysis. I probably won't get home before the get together tonight so I'll probably have on a short sleeve red checkered shirt, big guy with glasses.

Buffalobrewer- the first was a cream ale, i used a kit from Niagara trad. brewing, and i'm thinking I didnt use enough priming sugar per bottle. the flavor was great though. the second is a pils/lager also from NTB.. this came out better but still slightly short on the carbonation.
i live in hamburg right down the street from mammys- ill have to make it out sometime to a club meet. thanks for the welcomes guys!
