SUR X3 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I don't mind. First of all it's super hard to continually get ahold of 54 bottles that are pop top. Then you have to remember to have a huge supply of caps. Usually we kept somewhere around 150 bottles. 25 of those being pints or larger if we could find them. The cork tops are good too. It's seriously a lot of work. You have to keep the brew in a dark spot, you have to clean the carboys obviously, and they're an odd shape which makes it hard. Mashing sucks... It just goes on, but it's fun to have a brew party with a bunch of friends, it makes it tons easier, 5 gallons of boiling water is hard to deal with.

SUR X3 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Kits are not where it's at. Cheaper and more fun to just buy the ingredients. Also you don't need to buy bottles separately. Just continually drink pop off tops till you have enough to brew. Saves money and you get to feel like you're accomplishing something buy drinking 6 packs every night. Don't forget to clean the shit out of those bottles and get a bottle drier too. Cracking open a bottle of beer you brewed yourself and getting a mouth full of mold isn't the best experience. It's almost bound to happen at least once before you really get the point. IPAs are fun and easy to make, and you can never add too many hops, it's awesome. Anyway, my two cents... Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas. the kits are just buckets, hoses, etc. the stuff you do need. the mixes are hops, yeast, sugar. i got enough to get started. once i get the hang of it, i'll brew my own blend. probably a porter or lager. thanks for the info. symbols: thanks for the link. does he brew his own?
