I've got the bug!

Wed Feb 06, 2008 9:04 pm

Hey guys it's Jimbimbo! I'm new to brewing, but I've been interested since fall of last year. I'll give you a little about me, and get it out of the way.

I love beer!
I love to fix things and tinker!
I love my soldering iron!
I play guitar!
I'm a college student: Electrical Engineering Tech major B.S.
oh and did I say I love beer!

Don't have a lot, but I've been listening to the BN in my car five days a week for two hours each day while I drive to school and back. I love the show and have found it very inspiring. All I've been doing is talking about beer all the time and I drive everyone crazy. I love the BN podcasts because the driving really drains me, but listen really helps. It's almost like I don't even know I'm in the car. I really enjoy how the show has a real personal feel that I believe is unlike anything I've heard. It's really funny because I'll start laughing in my car and the people in the car next to me think I'm crazy :D!

By the way I posted in the Extract section and I would really like some tips if anybody does have some for a first time brewer.
