A quiet place for Home Brewers to share information, recipes, stories, techniques and more. So stop in, pull up a seat, crack open a longneck and stay for a while. We can talk about anything you like but please keep it civil...were all friends.

Home brewing is a very satisfying hobby (lifestyle), how you should start depends on the space you have to brew in and how much you have to invest at first. I started with a Mr. Beer kit and worked up from there, you would be surprised at the variet…

I am expanding my horizons

I am starting a project to turn my storage building into a work area for brewing as I am running out of space in my house for all the stuff I have collected. I started brewing with a Mr. Beer kit and haven't stopped. I soon expanded into 5gal buckets and 10 gal. brewpot and steeping specialty grains. I am currently shopping for all grain equipment and and old upright freezer to set up a minibrew conical fermentor in (with temp controler).

Thanks, Mark. Without your quote, my favorite quote probably would have been the same as yours from Ben Franklin. While I've been home brewing a long time, I'm still a relative novice because there have been long gaps. I did it in my 20s before kids, then when the kids were young, then when they each hit 21 and wanted to do it, and now again that they are starting BeerMenus.com and brewing again as part of that. It's great to see the interest in home brewing really growing across the country. Seems like a typically American thing to do also.

Welcome to the site Mark! It is always great to have some homebrewers join up. Looking forward to chatting brew with you. I'm hoping one of our homebrewers will start a group and people can start chatting recipes and help troubleshoot etc. Anyway, if you have any ques. feel free to drop me a line - Cheers!
