First timer in North Hampshire

[Ian1970]

Hi.
Completely new to brewing. Looking to try brewing my own cider.
Would love to hear from others who are willing to answer my miriade of questions.
If you are in the Surrey / Hampshire areas and would be willing to share your experience, even better.
Thanks all (I was about to put "thanks guys" but realised at the last minute how sexist that sounds)

I've only ever done kit brewing and wouldn't consider myself a cider aficionado but the Bulldog Premium Apple Cider kit is straightforward to do makes a very pleasant drink, imo.

Hi Itry - not sure what turbo brewing is but to start with I'm using a kit so I imagine that this qualifies. I am however hoping to move on to using apples - I think I know where I can get a reasonably good quantity.
