Greetings -
I am currently in the process of acquiring all necessary equipment to start homebrewing! I found someone in my community who is selling a lot of his old equipment, so I see it as a good way to get started inexpensively. Here is the equipment I bought:
2 6 gallon Better bottles
1 7.5 gallon fermentation bucket
1 7.5 gallon bottling bucket
2 1 gallon glass jugs
1/2 inch Kettle screen with 3/8 thread(Bazooka Screen)
2 bottle cappers
2000ML Glass Flask for making starters
10-15 gallons worth of empty 12oz bottles(some are label free most need to be cleaned)
Auto siphon, racking cane, wine thief, bottle capper, sanitizer/test strips and other small items
I need to get a kettle. Any suggestions? Would I be better suited getting a 10 gal or 15 gal?
Any other suggestions, concerning either equipment or techniques, for a homebrewing beginner? Any advice would be helpful!
Many thanks, and cheers!
Collin
