Returning Home Brewer! UK

[Major_Incident]

Dabbled a bit a few years ago having a good Home Brew shop in my home town. I started with wine then moved to beer and lager. With the lockdown in place it's rekindled my desire to brew a bit of beer, so here I am looking for hints, tips and advice..

Welcome to the forum.
This might be of help as a refresher.
The basic principles are the same however you intend to brew your beer.

Seems like this lockdown is bringing a lot of newcomers to the brewing scene - myself included. Like you, I dabbled in home brewing (back in the 80's), mainly kits, and then progressed to AG brews. After nearly a 15 year break I made my first 'lock-down' brew at the end of March, so it's nearly ready to crack the first bottle! Whoo Hoo!
