Hey there new to the forum, and to home brewing. So new in fact, I have yet to purchase any gear, brewpot, fermenting buckets, ect. I was wondering if any of you experinced folks have any preferred vendors (prefferably on the internet that will ship nationwide) you use, or any places to stay away from. I have already browsed the list of vendors in the forums here already, but I like to deal with merchants my peers have dealt positivly with. Is it a good idea in your opinion to buy a pre-packaged starter kit, and spend from what Ive seen 70 to 400 dollars, or buy higher quality more expensive equipment peace meal style, a little at a time till I have enough stuff to brew my first batch.???
Im open to spending some money,(Im not opposed to "investing" good money in something that I think Im gonna do for a while or something Im going to enjoy for some years) as Im pretty sure this will be a life long hobby, ive been making up my mind weather or not to do this for a couple years and have finally decided to give this a shot. I'm not the type of person whom "dabbles" either Im in and I do it well, and learn all I can about it, or Im out. Any input anyone can offer would be greatly appriciated.
