Greetings from the UK

Thu Aug 16, 2012 5:16 am

Just thought I would say hi, I have been brewing since March this year, started with kits but on Monday I did my 1st AG brew, took about 6 hours from start to finish and I had the BN on the laptop from start to finish :)

I generally listen to the podcasts due to the time difference, I have just finished my download mission, I have all of the Jamil Show, Brew Strong and CYBI, also grabbed a few of The Session.

Love the shows, I get to listen to them on headphones for most of the day in my office which is great and listen to the stream when ever I can.

:jnj
Cheers,
Colin

6 hrs is pretty good brotha!...I have mine down to 5 flame on to cleaned up...its not a fast process and hurrying only makes it worse...good luck and most important, (as Tasty says) brew strong and often

Cheers!

Thanks for the welcomes :)

I dont get much chance to get on here, spend far too much time on a UK based forum but wil try and be more regular on here too (I have to work occasionally and it always gets in the way of my forum usage :P )

Not had chance to have a good look around yet, are there many UK based brewers on here?
Cheers,
Colin
