Re: trying something new any suggesstions would be appreciated

You could start out with books because they walk you through everything
from what equipment you'll need, to the actual brewing process.
we got Homebrewing for Dummies and a few other good ones like Dave
Miller's Guide to Homebrewing( I think that's the title..it's close)
and another book called ' How to Brew' and we subscribe to a magazine
called Brew Your Own Magazine( they have a website). And you can search
the internet because there's a lot of pages about homebrewing...that's
how I found this site and it's really full of information as well.
Sometimes the homebrew supply shop will even give you a free video on
the basic steps of brewing.
If you're lucky, you have a homebrew supply shop nearby and you can
look it up in the phone book ( we found ours under Brewery Equipment
and Supply) and you could go there and start asking questions as
well...they are always happy to help and have many suggestions on how
to get started.
when we first started out we bought a basic beginner's kit with a
couple of buckets and some other items...basic stuff that's not too
expensive at all.
It's a fun hobby and very rewarding ;)

Hope this helped a little...have fun brewing!
