If you've ever thought about brewing your own beer, you're not alone. Every year, thousands of people join the flock of home brewers that love to make their own suds right in their own home. You're probably very excited about your new hobby and ready to get into it right away, but there are a few things that you need before you can begin. You're going to have to begin to plan your brew before you can actually go through the process of brewing beer in your home.
Things that you're going to need to consider are: what are the pieces of equipment that are required and how do you source them, either locally or ordered from another source? How much time is going to be dedicated to the entire process, and how long are each individual steps going to take when I'm actually beginning th process of brewing the beer? What are the ingredients that I need in order to make a good beer, where can I find them for purchase and how much am going to need to spend in order to make sure that I end up with a quality brew? After the beer's brewed, what's the next step?
Take the time to read over that short list and answer each one of those questions, and you'll be able to start seeing what it takes to brew your own beer. I'm going to give you a little more information about getting the equipment together and what to look for, for your first brew.
You're going to need to proper equipment to make this whole thing work. The stuff you're going to want to get as a beginner is going to be the basic stuff & doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg. In fact, I advise that you keep things as cheap as possible at first so you can see what it takes to make your own brew. Some people love it, but some people really don't get into the whole process. You don't want to spend an arm and a leg on equipment that is going to be used once and then have little to no resell value.
It's a great idea for you to get involved with someone else who already does their own brewing at home. This will give you the chance to see what goes into the entire brewing process, and ensure that your first brew will go as well as you'd hope it will, and whether you really want to spend your time brewing your own beer. Some people don't have access to other brewers in their area, so this may not be an option for you, but if it is then it's something that you should definitely consider.
There are some Brew on Premises establishments that will allow you to use their equipment to help you get through your first brew. This is a great option for those who are first timers. This way, you don't have to buy all the equipment to find out that you don't really like brewing your own beer. This is also a great option if you don't know other people who brew their own beer at home. You will be charged, but it will be less that it would cost you if you were to buy all the equipment yourself.
You'll need to take your time when you go through your first brew and make sure that you're checking all the boxes that you'll be learning about brewing your own beer at home. I'll be writing a series of guides on here to help you through the process, but I wanted to introduce you to the basic things that you need to take into consideration as well as some of the options you have when planning your first brew. Good luck & happy brewing!
