Hey Everyone!
I am still fairly new to the whole beer making scene. My first few 1 gallon batches turned out very well and now I feel as if I am ready to move to the 5 gallon batches. One of the main reasons is because I will get more bang for my buck and I have found a few recipes that I love and want to do larger batches of.
Here is my dilemma. I have no idea how to move forward with this. I have been making my beer on an electric range in a 5 gallon (i think) pot. My brother who brews cider said I will likely need to move to a gas burner to get this really moving along. I don't really know anything in regards to what type of hardware I need to get this going. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what I need to buy/should buy/etc. I would like to try to stay under $300 ish if at all possible. Saving up for a wedding!
