Excellent tips Matt, having friends that brew to learn from is an awesome thing, at the very least the community online is a great resource to tap into!
Great tips Matt, I agree with all of these, but yeast health is probably one of the most critical aspects, especially considering so many new homebrewers want to jump straight to high gravity beers!
I like that steel table. I currently have those shelves from Lowe’s and it dips in the middle. And it says 1000lbs for each shelf but I swear 5 filled carboys would collapse it.
So true that better equipment doesn't make better beer. Just like in rocky 4 when Dolph Lundgren had all that cool shit, and all rock had was a log cabin. So much of my life is exactly like Rocky 4.
Good tips! Biggest hurdle for me was figuring out how to adapt other's recipe to my own system. I saw that Beersmith 3 tried to adjust recipes to my own system efficiencies, and I kind of made my first few batch far underperforming.
Yea until you get it tuned in on Beersmith3 it may be off. Things to check is your kettle loss and your boil off rate for your system. I know I had to tune that myself in Beersmith3 to get more accurate numbers.

If you check out the "building a brewery" playlist on my channel I think I do link to it. It was not too expensive.
@@TroubleBrewing Thx fam
I got a used minifridge and stick a small heater and fan in it....hooked up to an inkbird
That's the best way to do it if you got access to a fridge. That way you got heating and cooling locked down.
@@TroubleBrewing yup
