My messages to my 1995 brewing self:

  1. Almost every beginner wants to make a strawberry blonde ale. Almost all fail.
  2. Don't make starters for dry yeast.
  3. Do make starters for liquid yeast.
  4. Gelatin is a great clarifier.
  5. Stop brewing on the stovetop ASAP.
  6. Aeration is a good thing.
  7. Don't stop brewing for a decade. You'll miss it more than you know.
 
-Get into AG after your first few batches, it's not as hard as you build it up to be.
-Build a fermentation chamber sooner, it will make a difference.
-QUICK, TURN AROUND! YOUR ABOUT TO HAVE A BOIL OVER!!! (now never brew in the wife's kitchen again!)
