Just a quick 'Hello' from Canada.
Started doing homebrew a couple of months back with marginal success. Any success I did have I am pretty sure came from reading and re-reading posts on this site. It is a surprisingly tricky hobby with some pretty high stresses.
Currently brewing extract with specialty grains, hope to move to all grain soon along with kegging.
Thanks for all the info you guys put out there for all us noobs.
Currently have made:
brewers best red ale; bottled
brewers best robust porter (added vanilla beans fermented in spiced rum prior to racking to secondary) bottled
sam adams summer clone; modified recipe from this site. bottled but suspect
sam adams summer clone; recipe from this site; in primary
I ended up doing a second batch of the sam adams because the first was awful....but that will be a topic for another thread.
Thanks again and sorry for the long first post!
