I hope I didn't miss an already existing forum that addresses this. I've been steadily brewing since Nov. 07, started with a Mr. B33R and after one batch, knew I wanted something bigger, better and with more bells and whistles. Skip ahead a few months and I've got 4 five gallon brewing buckets, all the plastic tubing for racking, hydrometer, thermometer, capper, nice strainer, the basics for brewing. I use a huge 10 gal. canning pot for boiling the wort (too big, really) and cool with an ice bath. I'm ready to move ahead alittle and buy something that will improve my beer making. Where should I go from here? I'm still an extract brewing, using specialty grains when called for and only have 6 brews under my belt, so I'm not ready to go all-grain. With all that in mind, if I have a little cash to spend, what should I buy next to get a better brewing experience?
p.s. I'm a woman and have not yet run into any other women brewers and would love to see a forum related to women and brewing. Oh, I mispoke, the brewmeister for Mr. Beer is a woman and I know that because say what you will about their little beer kit, but they are really helpful when you run into a prob. She gave some nice advice on brewing a double cherry porter when I had no business brewing something so much more advanced than my noob skills allowed.
