Choosing the Right Beer Kit

01/01/2010

The MoreBeer!™ mission is to provide reliable equipment and quality ingredients to make the brewing experience successfuland satisfying. We’ll get you the tools to start brewing the way we wish we had started. We offer five levels of Personal Brewery Beer Kits™ ranging from $69 to $450. Beer Kits™ #1 and #2 are partial systems, based on the assumption that you already have part of the equipment needed to brew. These two systems allow you to gain brewing experience for a very low initial cost, then upgrade as you go along. Systems #3, 4 & 5 are complete and readyto-go PersonalBreweries™ Systems #4 or #5 use the full-boil method of brewing. Full-boil allows you to brew faster and more easily, resulting in better beers.


As you browse through our catalog and website, you’ll discover we offer the expert knowledge base and excellent customer service neededto help you from your first batch all the way into commercial brewing. Our experience has shown that if your first beer does not turn out great you won’t keep brewing. So, if you ever have a problem we’ll help solve it as quickly and accurately as possible. We want you to be a satisfied brewer and a satisfied customer.

 

Personal Home Brewery Beer Kit 1 - "Standard"

A very affordable beginning Personal Brewery™ built around an inexpensive plastic fermenter. Perfect for budget-minded Beginning Brewers. Our "Standard" Starter Beer Kit gets you started in homebrewing at a very affordable price. It is also the simplest system to use. Anyone can follow the step-by-step directions and produce really great beer with the first batch.

This upgradable system is designed around,two, food-grade plastic buckets that come with spigots mounted at their bottoms for quick, easy liquid transfers. You first ferment the beer in one bucket for two weeks, then transfer it into the second bucket at bottling time. An extra benefit of this System is that your buckets can stack one within another, saving you valuable space. This makes it a good choice for those who must brew in tight places. We do caution against storing heavy or sharp edgedequipment inside these buckets as that can lead to tiny scratches in the plastic where harmfulbacteria can thrive.

This low-cost Personal Brewery Beer Kit 1 includes all the basic stuff you’ll need for successful brewing, EXCEPT for 1) a 5 gallon BrewingKettle (which you may already have or can borrow 2) two cases of 22 oz Recappable Glass Beer Bottles and 3) a Beer Ingredient Kit for each batch you brew .

Features a long-lasting, clear carboy perfect for watching the fermentation process. Breweries #3, 4, & 5 are built upon this core system. MoreBeer!’s™ "Deluxe" Beer Kit  is identical to our Standard System, except that it replaces one of the plastic buckets with a superiorcarboy and a siphon set-up for only $30 more.

While plastic buckets are an economical way to make beer, the carboys are easier to santize, allow visibility, and provide better a better oxygen barrier to reduce oxidation.

Personal Home Brewery Beer Kit 5 - "Kegging Super-Deluxe"

Dispense your personal brews professionally with this complete, high-quality Beer Kegging System. Beyond mere convenience, it’s a brewer’s ultimate showpiece. You’ll never get over the pride and joy of dispensing your beer from your keg right at home (or cabin/office/campsite/ball game!). Our "Kegging Super Deluxe" Beer Kit 5 comes with everything in our Bottling Super Deluxe Kit and our Homebrew Draft System (KEG400), providing everything you need to fill, carbonate and dispense fresh, cold beer on tap.

Of course, you will need to store your keg in a cool environment — ideally a used or new refrigerator. By law, the included CO2 tank has to ship empty, so you will need to have it filled locally (see Yellow Pages under Gas – Industrial, Medical, Welding Supplies). “Does life get any better than having your own homebrew on draft? No, it really doesn’t.” Certainly, kegging is much easier than bottling. But the deep, authentic satisfaction of owning a Kegging System arises when you ‘pull off’ a pint of your own creation and enjoy that “Damn, am I good!!” feeling. Self-esteem, pride of-accomplishment, happiness ... People search a lifetime for these intangibles, now, you can purchase them for a little over $400!
