Been doing some reading and you-tubing the past few days.... And U'm thinking of taking the plunge and trying an all grain, or maybe a kit. So far I've only done Festa Brew kits for beer. I've done a mead from scratch last year. Just looking for some guidance, suggestions, tips, and where, if anywhere, I can get grains, and hops around Pic Co.

Re: All Grain Virgin
I can probably help with that in a few weeks.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter.

This http://cruisenews.net/brewing/infusion/page1.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; site really helped me do my first all grain. The pictures made it almost fool proof.

Re: All Grain Virgin
If u have a chance to brew with others that do all grain it really helps too. I've picked up a lot of little tips n tricks from other people that you don't normally read in text books or often see on you tube.
It's great because everyone has their own style based on their setup.

Re: All Grain Virgin
Yep, it it always best to have a hands on approach if you can. Watching and helping others brew is your best bet to see how it is done to avoid some pitfalls associated with a first all grain brew, although I went with that site I posted and never looked back.sleepyjamie wrote:If u have a chance to brew with others that do all grain it really helps too.
