New guy here from Milford, transplant from California -- starting to take my brewing more seriously
cpapallo said:Just brewed first batch last night in Danbury. Looking forward to my new addictive hobby.
Matt checking in from Windsor. I'm still fairly new to this but have been brewing every few weeks for a couple years now, adding a bit of equipment and such here and there as I go. Switched to All Grain in the fall and already have 5 or 6 batches that have come out pretty good. Made my first yeast starter last night, i've always just pitched direct with no issues but figured i'd try this out. It's going into a chocolate porter i'm brewing with some friends and family on Saturday. Since you're from CT if you're reading this, you'll probably appreciate this...we're using top quality cocoa straight from Munsons! One of the guys joining us has been a candy maker there for 30 years. Best chocolate ever.
Good times!
That's awesome. I think Hooker does a beer with Munsons chocolate in it.
Good luck with the brewday!

Hartford CT here. I haven't brewed in a few years, but a good friend of mine is getting married in may. Thinking I'm going to bottle a bunch of brewskis for the occasion.

My apologies on the really (and I mean really) late reply. First batch was Maltose Express Heady Topper clone. Came out pretty good. I have since brewed about 10 or 11 batches since then. I am not equipped for all grain brewing and have really been learning as much as I can about brewing. Just bottled a single hopped all grain citra pale ale on Sunday and I have a double IPA using Vermont Ale Yeast in it's primary fermentor now.What did you brew?
