I won't claim to be an expert but with many kits costing as low as $20 to $25 I am not sure how you can save 50% or more buying in bulk...what kind of quantites are you purchasing that you are realizing these savings? Mike

I have always purchased my kits from Norther Brewer but I am now looking for something different. Where do you purchase your kits? Mike

There was another one at the store. It didn't have the Guinness top but otherwise was the same. If you are interested I can pick it up next time I am in town and ship it to you.

Just picked the is up at a restaurant supply place for $20, will it work for a stout handle for my kegerator? It looks different than the ones I have seen for sale. What adjustments can I make to it? Mike

Cool, If it were just about loosing fizz I could probably rack into two kegs, with 2.5 gallons in each one and switch accordingly. Mike

Two questions: 1. What makes this a wine and not a cider? My guess would be because a wine yeast is used. Is this correct? 2. Is anyone using Beersmith and adding EdWorts Apfelwein? I like to track all of my brews in Beersmith and also use it to print labels and keep notes so it would...

Rod, Since you hav made a few batches of this I was wondering if the recipie from the orginal post is the one that you have settled on? Do a lot of people like this or just one? I am looking for something other than beer to have around for non beer drinkers. Mike
