I've been lurking around the forum for a few months now, and figured I'd introduce myself. I started brewing Festa Brew kits a couple of years ago. This summer, a buddy of mine invited me out for a brew day -- to show me the ropes -- of all grain brewing (dry stout). Well... I'm hooked!
I'm only 3 solo all grain batches in (two more currently fermenting), but I am pretty happy with how they have come out so far.
I'm quickly finding out that it is so easy to to spend money with this hobby. Two keg system on its way from OBK.
"You are only 3 batches in, and you are kegging already?" -- Storage space in the house is being taken over by beer bottles and brewing equipment. Getting rid of 3/4 of the bottles, and replacing them with a couple corny kegs was a good compromise with my wife! And it should complement the bar in my man cave quite well!

Anyway... love the forum. Lots of great info here! Looking forward learning from all of ya!
Cheers!
