as far as first batches go, plan on two or even three, because you will have the capacity to roll them out in parallel. Beer is impossible to screw up as long as you sanitize.

This midwest kit looks really good.

Follow that up with a stout the following weekend.

i think iamwiz82 might of just brewed up one of their other stout kits.


edit they have what looks like a nice deal on their bottles, though there will be shipping too. $1 for a liter bottle though qualifies as hotdeal.

Sweet. Now all I have to do is maintain the willpower to not order and start brewing for another couple months while I finish losing the last 10-15lbs I want to lose, because beer seems to play hell with weight loss for me. After that, I'll start bulking, and some additional calories wont be such a problem 😀

BTW, what is the recipe you used to make your personal favorite batch of homebrew?

EDIT: regarding the timing... a little devil just perched on my shoulder and mentioned that the heavier stouts usually take several months to mature. :evil:

Well, I'm one step closer to my goal. I've got a rough concept of what my cover art will look like.
