Any home brewers out there?

[Mongo]

Does anyone in the SO brew their own beer with a home brewery kit? If so, whats the best thing to look for in a kit?

[Mjcpr]

I'd say make sure it's a good one.

my father in law gets all his stuff from beernut.com, and he has a mail order catalog from "midwest homebrewing and winemaking supplies"

trouble


but if you do want to get into it:
1) look at some websites
2) find a local brew shop

No joke. I spent time at JK's suggested website and it looks like brain surgery. Natty Lite it is:D

Mongo, you should probably stick to microscopes and rocks. Barley and hops will just confuse you.

I agree with you 100%. You should stick to gay pr0n as an investment, since you know the market demands

[1stTimeCaller]

laugh now but those two storage units that I have full of the gay pron that I don't look at anymore will be worth millions one of these days.

beating to a gold mine?

its expensive too...alot more than i imagined it would be

[Mongo]

It looks complex as hell, but it still would be cool to get twisted on your own make. I seriously read that site, and I am no smarter than when I started.

[jk the sooner fan]

my fil has a folder full of notes on each brew, it is very complicated and time consuming

[Mongo]

maybe I should invest in moonshine or hydroponics. Where is Vet when you need him?

[jk the sooner fan]

yeah, growing dope doesnt seem to be too difficult

no, but a guy at my office has a winery...sells his stuff for $5/bottle and it's pretty darned good!

A friend of mine, his parents made pear wine. They gave us bottles of it all the time, it was pretty dang good, but they let it ferment wayyy too long

[jk the sooner fan]

Actually, I didn't think the instructions look all THAT complicated. northern brewer also sells some shortcut ingredients that will let you skip a few of the messier steps if you want. Most of the expense is in the initial setup and equipment. I think it becomes a lot more affordable if you brew frequently.

Yep. I haven't brewed in a while since I'm rarely at home any more. Any of the kits are fine, but make sure you get a big stainless steel brew pot, a glass carboy, & copper wort chiller. I made my wort chiller from 3/8" copper tubing from Lowe's.

Call me tomorrow & I'll tell you more.
