I am a beginner and have my first brew fermenting now.
I used a John Bull American Beer to start. Just an all-in-one can, yeast even included.
Now I've been reading some and see that some of you experts do all your ingredients separately and some even go to more extremes with the whole mash thing and saving/washing your yeast (concepts i do not totally grasp at this point, but someday i will)
in the meantime, i plan on a few more brews using a kit. might try adding some jalepeno's or flavored extract to the secondary, etc..., but thats it for now.
however, looking at the AustinHomeBrew site i see they have their own extract kits for beers such as Shiner Bock, New Castle and Killians Irish Red.
what type kits are these? are they all inclusive? just boil and add to the primary? does the yeast come with it? or do you choose the yeast from their page on these kits?
here's an example:
