Hello all! I have wanted to make my own beer for a long time now and just started researching how to do it. I bought a cheap kit a while back but either I didn't follow the instructions exactly or they were no good...because it all basically blew up all over my house!
Anyway, I see better-looking kits on ebay and I was wondering if you guys think they're worth the $$. For around $100 I can get a kit with two buckets, a 5-gallon glass carboy, siphon, capper, other odds and ends, and the thing that goes on top of the fermenter to let the gas out (don't remember what it's called!). Is that a worthwhile investment or can I get this stuff cheaper somewhere else??
Thanks in advance for any advice and help!
