If you enjoy beer on any level then homebrewing is something that you have to try. It is so simple and easy to do at the beginner level and the expenses to get going are minimal. Once you get involved and start creating your own recipes, the science seems to be so mind boggling with all of it's malting times and hopping equations but there are easy ways to make your own Bass Ale or Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or even a Sam Smith's Oatmeal Stout. I've been homebrewing for about 9 months now and I can't get enough of it. I now have seven types of beer sitting in my closet that are all bottled and ready to drink whenever I please. I think I'll have an English Brown Ale right now actually...Aaahhh, cool crisp and refreshing. If you have any insight on homebrewing that you think you could lend, please enlighten me. I've got a few tricks of my own too if you'd like to get started on your first 5 gallons of pure homemade brew. Cheers!!

I'm trying to learn, myself. I've got a test-bottle fermenting in my kitchen. How did you get started with it, and what equipment and recipes did you begin with?

Brewing - Home brewing techniques
Free bird, what an intoxicating discussion, thats too at the first time. I tried making Chaang (The tibetan drink), it is made by boiling the millets/rice and mix it with a piece of tibboo yeast, the longer it sleeps the more is the kick. Later mix the grain with hot water and sip. I will be grateful to you for your recipes. Thank you and cheers.
