What do you need to brew beer? Precious little, of course. I mean, if people were doing it 4,000+ years ago without hydrometers, thermostats, and programmable controllers, you should be able to do it in your kitchen.
It all depends on how “deep” you want to get into the process. Fermentarium has an article up describing the various bits you need for the various ways you can go, including:
- Bottle Brew
- No Boil Beer Kits
- Extract Brew
- All-Grain Brew
Fermentarium: What do you really need to start brewing beer?
I’m still doing extract brewing (when I can). How about you? If you haven’t started brewing your own beer (yet) do some of these simpler options tempt you?
