Choosing Where To Purchase Home Brewing Supplies

By Jason Scott


Many beer and wine drinkers decide that they would like to make their favorite tipple at home either as a hobby or to save money. After purchasing an ale or wine making kit or ingredients a few other things will be required before beginning. There are a couple of places where home brewing supplies can be found and purchased.

Most home brewers will be able to find a store or specialist near to their homes that will sell everything they need. Stores such as this are a good place to start especially for the beginner as everything can be found under one roof. Another advantage of buying from retailers such as this is that the store assistants are available with advice and guidance.

Another place to buy from is an internet based company and there are more of these starting up each week. Everything from basic materials to brewing vats, bottles and accessories can be ordered and shipped to the home. Many of these web sites also have instructional DVD's and text documents for download to advise customers and offer hints and tips to get you started.

Whether you decide to have a go at lager, ales or wine this hobby does not have to cost the earth. A small beer starter kit which will contain kettle, basic kit and accessories can be found for approximately fifty dollars. For the budding wine makers, a start up package can cost as little as thirty dollars and this will produce half a dozen bottles of your chosen wine.

For the more advanced makers there are thousands of products available to give a more professional result. Bottles, cappers and labels can be found so that your unique brew can be personalized and is a great idea if giving it away as a gift. For advanced wine makers oak barrels are offered for sale to mature your wines in thirty or fifty gallon sizes.

For the more adventurous makers who have decided to progress from ready to go kits and brew cans, specialist ingredients are also offered for sale. Hundreds of different malts and hop mixtures as well as spices and additives can be sourced. Many online retailers will also have newsletters and advice columns and even chat rooms to allow like minded brewers to discuss techniques and recipes.

In recent years the micro brewing industry has grown significantly and continues to thrive. After being a small scale hobby some makers decide to take it to the next level and make much larger quantities to sell to the general public. This is a much more complicated process as items such as stainless steel professional equipment, sterilizing machines and climate control devices will need to be purchased.

Many brewers on a smaller budget and when starting out may decide to purchase used equipment and accessories. This can be a fairly cheap way of producing wines and beers but it is essential that all items are inspected and made good before use. Reputable shops and web based companies who offer these pre-used items will usually have made these checks before offering the items for sale.
