Hi everyone,
Well I really love the taste of home-made beer and have lived in pubs most of my life with my family. My parents ran a Jennings pub in the Lake District, and my dad was always an expert in the cellar, tapping all the new beers and getting the temperature and gas just right. I always helped him clean the lines each week, etc so its been in my blood from an early age.
I am now living in a place called Batam, an island just off Singapore, and I want to take up a new hobby. This is ideal for me. I will probably have to take the 1 hour boat ride to Singapore to get supplies but I really want to have a go at this, I'm sure its the kind of hobby that can become quite addictive and exciting.
If anyone has any tips on where to start, they'd be gladly appreciated. I don't really want to start with the 'cant go wrong all in one kits' I want to get the pan out and start brewing proper.
Thanks! :
