Re: Homebrew Thread

teach me o wise one... everything!!!!! where would you recommend i start? |
Re: Homebrew Thread
the bucket is about $12 at a local homebrew store & the carboy should be around $35...
you'll need an airlock & bung (lol i love that word): http://www.brewgadgets.com/images/Pr...medium/261.jpg http://www.brewgadgets.com/images/Pr...medium/265.jpg ---------- Quote:
next: buy an 'all-extract' kit. makes life easy & produces beer for about 60 cents a bottle... the good thing about these kits is that the hops are already boiled into the malt extract, and under that cap is a packet of yeast. http://www.eckraus.com/media/catalog.../m/mm110lg.jpg |
Re: Homebrew Thread
go on, we're listening!!!!!:)

Re: Homebrew Thread
awesome awesome.... do you get your extract kits from local store or from online?

Re: Homebrew Thread
you'll also need about 5 gallon jugs of spring water from the store, and enough 'pop-top' bottles for a 5 gallon batch (usually about 50-55 12 ounce bottles)
and you'll need caps & a capper http://mountainhomebrew.com/ProductI...ipment/512.jpg ---------- Quote:
wherever is cheaper haha ---------- Quote:
also, a few more basics... a siphon & some tubing http://brooklynbrewshop.com/media/ca...phon-300_5.jpg http://aardvarkbrewing.com/test/wp-c...6/DSC01710.jpg ---------- AAAANNNNDDDD this: it's a bottle filler - very handy http://www.southhillsbrewing.com/ima...-1-700x700.jpg |
