I recently decided I wanted to start brewing my own beer with ambitions of one day selling it but that should very far and probably not reality but I am looking for info on how to start from equipment to recipes to bottling it I'm completely new to his ad have zero knowledge please help
 
Go to Northern Brewer and look at their knowledge tab. Google homebrewing. A good foundation in business management wouldn't hurt either.
 
Maybe you want to start off small w/out buying much. Watch this video for a 2 gallon bucket Brew In A Bag (BIAB) method. YOu might have most of the stuff already. Take any recipe from our recipe section and divide by 5 then multiply by 2. Sorry I'm not good at math so that's my method. LOL

Here is a good starting book as well. Some slightly outdated information, but for the most part is pretty solid to get you started. How to Brew

Midwest and other supply stores will have Groupons from time to time. I started with a Midwest kit and built up from there. Just look around for the best deals and you don't need too much to get started.
 
I have to thank Shred for inspiring me to start my own blog about my new hobby!

As for the topic at hand, I will agree with the poster who reccomended Northern Brewer's Knowledge page. I certainly learned alot that helped get me started there, as well as just browsing topics on this forum.
 
I really need to get back on there and post some updates. It's been months and I have a bunch of good recipes to share.
