Does anyone know of a vendor that sells good, close to the original 3 Floyds clone extract kits? I am new to home brewing so I would like to make a 5 gallon batch from an extract kit if possible. Alpha King, Gumball Head and Zombie Dust are the three that I am most interested in.

Looking for a recipe for Atwater Blueberry Cobbler Ale. Awesome beer, loaded with blueberry flavor. For some reason, it is no longer listed on Atwaters website but I still find it available locally. I'd like to try to clone it if possible, has anyone brewed anything similar? Here is a link to...

Different 6 pack every week kind of guy myself, I like variety. Yes, the NB 1 gallon kits are all extract and some have specialty grains that you steep at the start of the batch. For $7 I guess I can't go wrong with the Walmart kettle as long as it doesnt scortch or burn my wort.

By the way, not sure if it makes a difference or not but I am using a gas flame stove top to brew. I was concerned that the cheap, thin Walmart pot would burn the wort. Any advice on that front as well?

Thank you for all of the replies everyone, I really appreciate it. I wanted to start small to try different styles and kind of get the hang of brewing because making larger batches but maybe I will start on 5 gallon batches. I am a huge fan of 3 Floyds beer and it is not readily available where...

I don't think it is that I am worried about messing up, I just think I'd rather have 25 beers of 1 style and 25 of another rather than 50 of just 1. I drink a lot of craft beer and switch styles regularly. Making smaller batches would allow me to have more than 1 style of beer fermenting or in...

beertroll, With all of the recipes floating around the internet, couldn't I just scale whatever 5 gallon batch recipe down to 3 gallons and take a ingredients list to my LHBS? If hop addition times are the same no matter the batch size, that simplifies things a bit.

Completely new to home brewing and would like to start small, I have a few questions before I purchase equipment that I am hoping to get advice/answers to. I would like to start small, considering either 1 gallon or 3 gallon batches. 1 gallon seems easy enough as online retailers such as...

What size brew kettle do you guys prefer for one gallon batches? Northern Brewer had a small two gallon kettle that they recommended for one gallon batches but the kettle is no longer in stock and they do not know when more will be available. Midwest Supplies has a two gallon kettle for $14.99...
