Hello all.
I am new to homebrewing - just got a starter kit today
I want to brew Belgian Trappist beers, without becoming a monk. Could you please advise on the equipment I will need and the processes involved.
I have a * 25 Litre brewing bin
* paddle
* Syphon
* Steriliser
* Hydrometer
* 24 1ltr PET bottles
do i need anything else equipment wise?
I have read that Belgian beers are secondary fermented and bottle conditioned. Does the secondary fermentation occur in the bottles or do I need to do that in a carboy? My question being, to brew Trappist beers should I have a carboy as well as the listed equipment?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
