Searching For Beer Making Supplies

By Karen Wood


A large number of people decide to brew their own beer at home as a hobby or pass time. Various types of brew can be created with a little know how and it can be a very affordable way of enjoying a bottle of ale. When brewing in your home you will need to find beer making supplies and there are a couple of options open to you when searching.

The first place to look for these supplies is the brew shops that are operating in many towns and cities. These shops will stock everything you need from brewers just starting out to the semi professional beer makers. One advantage of visiting one of these stores is that the staff will be on hand to help you select the correct equipment and offer any advice you may need.

The second place to look for supplies in on the web and there are many retailers who sell their products online. These internet companies will have pages of stock for you to browse through and make your selections. When buying items online it should be noted that any shipping costs will need to be added on to the value of your order.

The amount of kit you need to buy will depend on a few things such as what type of beer you are making and in what quantities. All of the popular styles of beers can be made including lagers, heavy beers and fruity cider. Many people when brewing for the first time will use starter kits and these are fairly easy ways of getting a batch on the go and only water and sugar will need to be added.

Many home brewers with a little more experience may decide to experiment and try to create a beer from scratch using their own recipe. Items needed for this include malts, hops and specialist yeasts and these can all be found at suppliers. Other additives that can enhance a brew such as chocolate flavorings and special brewing sugars are also offered for sale. Books with classic recipes are available for the adventurous home brew enthusiasts.

The other equipment needed will include a barrel or vat to brew the beer, bottles and sterilizing equipment. It is essential to use the correct cleaning products to avoid a brew becoming contaminated. Fluids, brushes and filters can be found which will make the cleaning of your equipment easier.

Other items offered for sale include accessories to enhance your brew and help improve your skills and knowledge. DVD's, recipe books and monthly publications on brewing are all useful purchases. For the brewers who want to create their own ales the recipe publications are a particularly useful thing to get hold of.

Amateur brewing clubs are another place where you may find equipment offered for sale. These clubs are well worth joining as they buy their stock in bulk and in some cases will offer their members discounts on their purchases. Another benefit of being a member is that you will meet other brewers and this allows you to swap recipes and trade hints and tips with each other.
