Sweet! Check out youtube for some videos of extract brewing, There are a bunch of videos showing you the steps so you have a good idea of the process. Also let me know if you want some recipe's, I have a bunch, from blond ales to double IPA's, belgians, stouts and everything inbetween. But I would start with a pale ale type beer like a Sierra Nevada clone as your first as they have a little more wiggle room flavor wise and are pretty easy until you get your system dialed in. Have Fun!!

Get him "Brewing Classic Styles" by Jamil Zainasheff for a stocking stuffer. Every recipe is a championship winner and has recipes for extract and all grain brewing. I've made hundreds of batches of beer and his recipes are winners. Also, I have gotten away from glass carboys and only use Better Bottles. If you ever break a glass carboy you will understand why. Hope he enjoys it.

Will do!!!
