So, I've been putting some equipment together and really eager to get going, My only brewing experience is a Weissbier i helped my brother with and some elderflower wine..
I've got a 35l boiling pot, with bag for BIAB
An outdoor gas burner
a few 5 gal fermenting buckets
some tubes, siphons, funnels and a spoon
a hydrometer..
some bottles/caps
So what can i make with what I've got so far? I'd like to make an IPA or even a NEIPA but the recipes look complicated to me, is there a good style for beginners to try first?
What should i think about getting next, I'm looking around for a 2nd hand fridge to build a fermentation chamber... not had much luck so far, might possibly buy new. Also thinking about kegs...
Also, what do people do with water, my bro used bottled water for the Weissbier, but can i use tap water, i found a report that says my water is moderately hard, see pic below. Could i use this with campden tablets to remove chlorine or better to stick to bottled?
