Hi All.
Looks like a top forum so thought i'd join.
Brand new to all this. At 22 i've taken a massive interest in all types of Ale. I really enjoy the vast difference in taste and characteristics of them.
I'm really keen to start brewing my own and take the process very seriously, ultimately to create a brew i would be happy to use as a product and sell. My aim is to eventually come up with something easy to drink, which will appeal to a wide amount of people and to drag people (mostly my mates down the pub) away from god awful fizzy pop like fosters etc! I think this is a perfect time to get the ball rolling as more and more younger people seem to be jumping on the Ale drinking bandwagon...and why not!
So i send out a cry of help to anyone who can give me and tips on how to get started. I see a lot of you have been doing this for some time, so your experience would be very valuable to me.
In terms of equipment, i would like to have stuff that will see me through the long term. What i mean by this is not beginner kits that i am only going to have to change a few months down the line. What are the best ingredients you have used to start with. I understand that it is the change of hops, that and the most character and that is down the personal preference.
Thanks for your time. Nice to meet you all!
