How Much Does It Cost to Start Brewing Beer at Home?

Today, the engineers of micet brewing will take you to see some common problems with brewing beer.
What kind of equipment are needed? How much does it cost to buy it all?
In fact, the simplest equipment does not need to be purchased additionally, and can be obtained . For example, for the crushing of malt, because the amount of malt required is small, a 5-gallon (18.9L large pure water bucket) bucket is used as the fermentation tank, the effective volume is up to 15L, and the proportion of 1/5 of the malt is only 3kg. If you don't want to spend money, pour it on a flat board and crush it with a wine bottle or rolling pin.Using a stainless steel soup pot as a mashing pot, the crushed malt is wrapped with pure cotton cloth. Use cotton thread to tie the pot and hang it in the pot without touching the bottom of the pot. Use a thermometer to measure the temperature while heating it on the gas stove. Stop the fire in time when the saccharification temperature is reached.
To cool down the boiled wort, you can put the pot in cold water to cool down, and when it drops to about 25 degrees, you can pour it into a bucket through a hose.
The malt in the bucket is lowered to about 20 degrees at room temperature by static, and the bucket is shaken to speed up the combination of malt and oxygen in the air. After that, you can pour in dry yeast, cover it with a stopper with a water-sealing valve (plastic), and ferment it at room temperature.
After 7-10 days of fermentation, the beer can be poured into a sterilized (sterilized) PE bottle, and sugar is added to seal it for secondary fermentation. This process produces carbon dioxide to make the beer have dense bubbles.

It is not difficult to see from the operation in the first part that a little friend with a little hands-on ability can brew. Remember that the two key points of temperature and hygiene will not fail, especially hygiene is the most important, no matter how well you do the front, if you do not do well in sanitation and disinfection, the result of contamination is doomed to failure!
It can be seen from the above four points that the simplest homebrewing tools are sourced , and only the raw materials and measuring tools are purchased.

To solve the problem that craft beer lovers have too many brewing containers and insufficient equipment, we designed a single tank that integrates saccharification and fermentation functions, which completely solves the problem of messy bottles and jars and equipment that dare not let people make wine. visit phenomenon.
