Hey All, I brewed NB's Irish Red extract kit as my first batch. (2 weeks primary, 2 weeks secondary, 3 weeks in the bottle). I threw a bottle in this morning and finally tasted it (9 hours in the fridge). I'm happy to report my first batch was a success except for maybe the color being a bit...

I bought something like this on craigslist and let me suggest... Making your own kegerator route if at all possible. Why? Bc the brewer in you will soon want not one but two taps for your homebrew and will find yourself paying upwards of hundreds of dollars replacing the tower anyway... Sent...

Awesome, nice to meet all of you. Thanks for the warm welcome! :)

Hello all, I'm new to the forum from sunny San Diego. I realize home brewing tends to be male-dominated. Just wondering if there are any other lady home brewers out there! :ban:

Grew up in Biloxi but I'm in San Diego now. The brew scene is much different to say the least...
