Complete Novice from Leicester

[uncleinan]

Hi there,

I am a complete novice. Just bought a beginner's starter kit from the Home Brew Shop and a Simply Pale Ale Beer Kit.

Going to start my first attempt at the weekend. Any do's and don'ts would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Ian

Do's & Don't

Do...read any paperwork that comes with the kits, and trawl the post on here. Take your time, make sure everything you use is clean.

Don't ....Rush any of the brew. as Charlie said "patience is a Virtue"
All the best for your brew. :thumb:

Thanks everyone.

I live near the Glenfield Hospital Cyclops. How about yourself?

About ready to go for my first attempt tomorrow. Just need to get a trial jar next week.
