Hello everyone,
I've been really gaining an interest in brewing some of my own beer.
I've been doing some reading on various sites, and getting a lot of information on it.
I like the idea of the kits, like this one.
https://www.homebrewsupply.com/advanced-homebrew-beer-kit.html
but I'm wondering is the equipment in these kits what I really need, or is it better to buy items separately and get better quality?
For example, I notice in all these kits the pot is a 5 gallon. But many of the sites say to go with bigger kettles especially to reduce the risk of a boil over.
So is better to buy a kit without the kettle, and buy a bigger kettle? Or buy everything separately?
Thanks in advance any advice, suggestions you have on this.
My dream someday if I get good at this, is attempt a DFH 90 or 120 clone.
