Hi everyone,
New here & thought I'd share my notes. I bought a beginner kit from Northern Brewer, and they were great with pre-sales questions and replacing the airlock, which I didn't replace during brewing.
That said, as noted in my other thread, I tried joining their forum to ask some questions, but I couldn't because of some kind of email glitch, which I never heard back about.
Anyway, any thoughts/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
