new to the hobby

Putting older posts here. Going to try to keep the novice forum pruned about 90 days work. The 'good' old stuff is going to be put into appropriate forums.

Sorry, buddy, no-one here is going to lead you step by step from your very first impulse to make hooch through to a finished product.

Spoonfeeding on the level you asking for just doesn't happen here.

I can, though, give you a small shove in the back and face you in the right direction to take your first steps.... :wink:

Visit this website, and read every word in every window at least once.
The bits you think you really need to comprehend, go back and read over until you do...

Then go to this website here and read all the threads in the various sections that are 'stickied'. Then have a bit of a go yourself to try a few things out like ferments and still building and cleaning, then when you think you've got it all sussed out and you reckon you're getting pretty good, come back and ask any questions you haven't figured out by reading all the various threads in here for a month or so.

Here is what a first post from a less lazy person looks like... reality
