First brewday after a 6+ year gap was two weeks ago, with bottling happening today, and I'm looking forward to trying the result in a few more weeks. Starting from scratch equipment wise after a transatlantic move, and limited myself to ordering <£75 of stuff to begin with. Only ever brewed small batches in the kitchen when I was in the US, and sticking with that now. Gas hob in the house we just moved into has a big wok burner, though... which is handy.
Decided to get back into it with a ~10L BIaB SMaSH of Golden Promise and EKG. Pleasantly surprised with how smoothly things have gone so far. Ended up with less wort, and more trub, into the fermenter than I wanted but it seems to have turned into reasonable looking and hoppy beer. Managed to avoid making too much of a mess both days!
