Thanks for the tips.

Here is my plan to breaking into brewing.

My first beer will be an Ale. I plan on using hop flavored malt extract, and ale yeast.

My second brew will be a malt grains/extract brew.

I will use plain malt extract, and specialty malts, probably roasted barley for this one, some boiling hops, and finishing hops, and some beer yeast.

Seems like a good way to start, its what is recommended in the book. My third may be the same as second, but try with a different malt grain, probably a crystal malt.

Have you already bought your ingredients? If not, I'd strongly recommend buying an extract kit from NB, AHS, or MoreBeer. It'll likely involve steeping grains and adding hops at various intervals. I've just heard few good things about hopped extract...
