Hey folks,
It's my time to take the big step into brewing with grains, not tin cans. So I'm after a bit of advice about what stuff to try first or do before I go and spend too much money. Although I haven't been too adventurous in the past, I have been doing a fair bit of reading and I do have a pretty good idea of the processes and different systems.
So should I be trying a partial? If yes, how would I go about it exactly... Can of goo and some grain? or Grain and bag of brew booster?
Maybe I should skip that stage and go for all grain straight away. I really liked the simplicity and mega-cheapness of the Babbs ghetto setup which I saw on utube.
Now since I've been thinking ahead, I have a couple of mates who are interested in home-brewing beer, I think it would be fab if we could get together and have a boys day doing beers, like many of you already do! :icon_chickcheers: This way we could keep costs down a bit in terms of equipment and have an excuse to hang-out. So I'm thinking now, 3 guys, 3 kegs = 60L. How should I/we go about doing large brews in a cheapo way?
