Hi Brewers, joined Brewers Friend about six months ago, Previously, I used Promash but it's so far out of date I needed to find a better solution so ended up here.
My experience in brewing is as follows: Started reading about all grain brewing in late 1999 through the Usenet groups. By 2001 I was asking questions and by 2002 I went on the hunt for all-grain ingredients here in Adelaide, Australia. Very sparse in those days but managed to get some stuff and made my first all-grain beer. Pretty awfull but still better than extract. Skip forward and I have been continuously brewing since then. I mainly concentrate on Lagers and can pretty much brew them with my eyes shut but still branch out into modern styles like NEIPA's, American style IPA's along with more traditional styles like ESB's and the forever holy grail...Czech lagers.
I now class myself as an experienced homebrewer. This has come through years of experience, never stopping learning stuff, listening to people and being as engaging as I possibly can. Steve Wilkins, Adelaide, Ausralia.
