I recently got caught the "Brew Bug." I came across John Palmer's webpage www.howtobrew.com, and subsequently picked up a copy of his book, which is a the standard for learning to brew your own beer. I read it cover to cover and was amazed by the science behind something I appreciate so much, beer!
Every resource I have come across highly recommends keeping extensive notes on how you brew your beer, so you can recreate a beer. So, the purpose of this blog is to share what I learn, and to archive my notes for mine and anyone else who is interested.
Currently I have my first batch in the fermenter. It is an extract brew of an American Amber Ale. When I bottle that batch I will do my first All-Grain batch.
My Equipment:
20 qt stock pot
