Home mini-breweries

I faced a terrible problem for myself - my husband whines, wants a mini-brewery for his birthday, tried to sit on specialized sites, but there people communicate who understand, I read and did not understand a thing - there was a feeling that I was a schoolboy who had come to a meeting of academicians. And the selection of breweries is huge. I would like to know which models are better and why, as well as how to brew and diversify beer recipes. The problem is that I don't like beer. Please help me, who knows. Time suffers - my birthday is in November.

Ilves we already have such a topic, go here https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=6097.0

tanya1962 Thanks for the link, I read it, BUT - I don't have a question to buy or not buy a brewery (which is discussed in the topic under your link). My question is which brewery is better to buy, how to choose a brewery .... Maybe someone will share their experience, tell about the strengths and weaknesses of this or that model.

Ilves, personally, I would advise you not to look at the Burmachi (you mean them, since you write "this or that model"), but at the TeddyBeer products ( 🔗), especially since you are in Moscow. The output quality is at least the same (the technology is the same), and the price tag is an order of magnitude lower. And in fact, for all this, you can do without equipment at all - to ferment in a bottle with a glove.But keep in mind that homemade beer and beer in the store (even "live" and "unfiltered") are two completely different drinks. If you have already tried homemade beer, then there is no problem, and if not, then it is better to try it somewhere first (in the same TeddyBeer office sometimes there is beer to sample or from friends).

Something is preventing me from editing my message, there is no suitable button ...
In the previous post, it is better to go first here at this link:

I know that I was a year and a half late with the advice, but all the same, what if someone else has an urgent need for this thing. We have already had this thing for 2 years


I also gave it to my husband for his birthday. A cool thing, I can tell you, both as a source of sooooo delicious homemade beer, and as a toy for my older child (read - husband)
One problem is that the ingredients are not cheap, although if you compare the cost of the final product with the price of purchased live beer, it turns out to be quite a bit more expensive. But believe me it's worth it

as the first I can recommend a modest and inexpensive (about $ 150 in 2013 cost a full set of everything) brewery from teddy beer
look on the Internet - they are sitting in the ridge area
This is a sealed plastic bucket that can brew 25-30 liters of great beer in a month


highly recommend

My husband also started with this. Now the bucket is used only as a fermentation plant, and the husband has completely switched from concentrates to whole grain brewing. And cheaper, and the result is more pleasing!

I also bought it, while we try canned food, and then we'll see. Un-hopped extract and dextrose instead of sugar.

Narkom, it is the most!
on my own I will add - chlorine tablets, as it turned out, are superfluous. you can just wash the container thoroughly

Purity, the key to health (yeast)
ps eh, the administration of the site needs to include in the technique and brewery.

Hello everyone! Today my husband said "I want a home brewery"! I, as the most exemplary and loving wife, immediately agreed. Now I decided to choose something, but there is so little information on my favorite site.Maybe someone has been doing this for a long time and will suggest something else?

To begin with, to get a feel for the process, buy something from the above, ferment and then come in handy. And only then he switches to grain brewing.
Yes, and still not 9 liters, do not consider, as practice has shown, friends will immediately help you get rid of beer)))
