Hi all. Newby here.
Considering making some beer. Any advice would be appreciated. At this point in time I am becoming confused by such items as kits that let you merely boil some wort, pour it in a plastic keg, let it set for about aweek, bottle it, put it in the fridge and your drink.
I cook as a hobby. I am of the opinion that if I go this route I will be limited to beers offered the manufacturer. I like to experiment.
Then I research kits that I would call more traditional. The carboy, specific gravity, etc. I believe these kits would give me more flexibility.
Then again, I don't know how involved I will care to get, Would a plastic keg kit be a smart move to see if I really am interested, or will my results not be a true representation of a good home brew and turn me off?
Best regards...
