Equipment question

Fri Nov 13, 2009 5:38 pm

I have brewed around seven to 10 batches of beer and ale with my father a couple of years ago, I kind of know the basics.
I will be starting from scratch I have no equipment. What is a basic run down of the equipment I need?

Thanks

I'd start HERE! They have several kits that will get you up and running in no time flat. Note, the first couple kits do not have a kettle so you'll need a kettle in addition to the kit.

Also, if you can swing it financially, get the kegging system. I'm dying here bottling!!!

A cheap Ghast or any other Vacuum pump and some tubing and an extra cuople of posts and you should be able to build that yourself.
I'd like to see the thing set up.
It looks interesting.
HEY~!! It's a hobby~!! It's NOT supposed to make sense~!!
