Home brewer from India!

Themysticmac · Oct 2, 2018

Hey guys,
Im a home brewer from India! Its a real struggle to homebrew in India because we dont have homebrew supply shops here and the equipment is very expensive but i try my best to homebrew in the given circumstances. Looking forward to the tips and tricks and all the knowledge i can acquire from this forum!

Cheers!

Where in India? my wife is from Chennai...a lot of the grains and stuff can be bought online... and dry yeast is probably your best bet there... S05 for ales and 34/70 for lagers if you can keep it cool there...

Hey! Im from Bangalore! Yeah grains are easy to find but the hops are not. Sadly, they are never in stock :/

Oh yes been there a couple times... pretty modern place.
No online options? if you order in bulk you can get some pretty good price breaks...

Hello & welcome!
I visited Bangalore a lot over the last couple of years. There's a really good craftbrew scene kicking off there.

I used to go to The Bier Club and District 6 a lot. Maybe those guys could help with getting supplies in - they might know where locally anyway?
