"This is the best kit for beginners."

The New York Times' Wirecutter

It includes more of the most important tools than other kits, and MoreBeer provides very good support... this kit gives you a great chance at success.

1995

We've been doing this longer than most homebrewing brands have existed.

MoreBeer! started in a Bay Area garage and has been helping people make great beer at home ever since. Our kits are updated every year. We're not a dropshipper — we brew, we test, and we know what works for a first batch and what works for batch number five hundred.

How Flash Brewing works

The fastest path from zero to your own beer.

Mixing ingredients into fermenter
01

Mix (10 minutes)

Add the pre-hopped malt extract and Flash Yeast™ to water in the fermenter. No boiling, no waiting. You just combine what's in the box.

10 minutes, start to finish
Fermenter with airlock bubbling
02

Ferment (1–2 weeks)

Seal the fermenter and let Flash Yeast™ do its thing. You'll see bubbles within hours. Come back in two weeks.

Mostly hands-off
Pouring finished homebrewed beer
03

Bottle & drink

Transfer to bottles, add carbonation, wait a week. Then open one. You made that — from scratch, in an afternoon. It will be better than you expect.

1 week conditioning
Watch it happen

See a real brew day in 90 seconds.

One person, one kit, start to finish. It's faster than you think.

What first-time brewers say

They were skeptical too.

★★★★★

"I have kids and a full-time job so the taps run dry too often now... Simple, easy, almost deceptively so. I was skeptical at first but pleasantly surprised by the results. It will certainly be my go-to for quick and easy beer."

Michael A.
Busy parent · Flash Brewing Kit
★★★★★

"Wow! Just wow! I’ve been an all grain home brewer for 13 years... And all it took was 10 minutes to put it into a sanitized fermenter. Hop aroma and mouthfeel is absolutely on point! Must get other flash brewing kits now."

Vinnie K.
13-year homebrewer · Flash Brewing Kit
★★★★★

"First experience with FlashBrew... Packaging and presentation are solid and the instructions are clear and concise. Had everything buttoned up and in the fermenter in under 10 minutes. Very impressed with initial presentation and looking forward to kegging soon!"

Before You Buy

30 years of the same questions. Here are the short answers.

Call us at 1-800-600-0033 if you want the long ones.

Does Flash Brewing make real beer?
Yes — fully fermented, alcohol-containing beer. The malt and hops are pre-processed so you skip the boil, but fermentation happens exactly the same way. The result is indistinguishable from extract-brewed beer.
Do I need any special equipment?
No. The Flash kit includes everything you need. No kettle, no propane, no stove required. Just a clean space to ferment and a little patience.
How long until I can drink it?
Brew day is 10 minutes. Fermentation takes 1–2 weeks. Add another week for bottle conditioning. You're looking at roughly 3 weeks start to first sip — mostly waiting.
What if my first batch turns out bad?
Rarely happens when you follow the instructions. If it does, call us — we've heard every scenario and can usually diagnose it fast. We've been doing this since 1995.
How much beer does one batch make?
The 2-gallon Flash kit makes about 20 twelve-ounce bottles. The 5-gallon kit — and all traditional kits — make roughly 48–50 bottles, about two cases.
