I'd like to start brewing, and I'm kinda overwhelmed with all the equipment needed. Can anyone recommend a decent starter's kit? I want something that I won't need to upgrade too soon, something that won't limit my brewing options, and something so that I can have two batches brewing at once. I'm a complete beginner, so this is all gibberish to me right now. Should I get a two-stage setup, or one?
Here's a kit offered by my local shop for $52.50
Primary fermenter (6.5 gal., food grade plastic pail w/ lid & spigot)
Four feet 3/8" siphon hose
Thermometer, stick on
Fermenter lock
Wing type capper
Bottle Caps: 1/2lb
Brewing Made Easy book
Bottle brush
Sanitizer, lodophor
Bottle filler
So what do you guys think? I can upgrade individual pieces. Anything else I need? I just don't want to find six months from now that I should have bigger/better stuff.
