Hi folks
If anyone is wondering where the Avon Valley is, it is the small valley that starts by Windsor and covers Falmouth and Martock out through rt14.
I just got back into brewing beer after a friend showed me Noble Grape. I brewed about 300 liters since Feb this year.
I haven't actually drank that much yet.
I spent a winter in the 80s brewing beer every week with friends while on unemloyment and then got away from it.
I started up again with Fiesta brews and it wasn't long before I bought a good pot and and started doing the brews from scratch.
I just ordered a regulator and CO2 tanks and have one brew in a keg just waiting.
Now I want to brew larger batches. My friend has a old keg with the top cut off so we want to try a 20 gal batch. It is quite addicting the more you get into it.
Anyways I am looking forward for to the help and advice that can be found on here.

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.
