Halifax Newb

Post by spickup » Wed Nov 27, 2013 10:17 pm

Hi folks,

I am fairly new to brewing beer. Jayme is a friend from university, and it was his delicious home brew that gave me the motivation to start brewing.

I am doing my first specialty grain brew this month, hoping to eventually do an all-grain brew.

I've been checking the forum every day and am really enjoying learning about the process. I'm watching the classifieds section pretty closely, as I'm hoping to start kegging before the holidays. If anybody is looking to get rid of some gear, let me know!

cheers,
Scott.

Hello, Way to pick inspiring people. :rockin:

Does that make sense? :( Keith is probably scratching his head again.

:welcome:

We're pretty new, too. We've done Festa Brews so far, have an extract on deck, and we just got our all-grain gear from Dave at Everwood. We were lucky enough to get some great deals on keg systems and fridges on Kijiji in the last few weeks. They seem to come up fairly often, so I'm sure you'll have some luck. You just have to be fast! :)
