Someone else on this forum used the same set up I did, they transcribed the directions, so for a mor edetailed explanation, here they are: STEP I: In a large enamel or stainless steel pot, place 3 quarts of bottled or filtered water. Place on stovetop and bring almost to a boil. Prepare the...

OK, Here goes: It is a kit. Comes with a soft plastic cube shaped container for the wort while it is fermenting. it has hops, yeast, dextrose, a clarifying agent, amber dry malt and light dry malt. I chose amber for my first batch. I cooked the wort in a stainless steel pot, poured it into...
