Frequently Asked Questions
*How long before my beer will be ready?*
To brew your own fantastic beer takes 2-3 weeks, varying slightly on which kit you choose. It takes around 5 days for the initial brewing process in the fermenting container and then around 2 weeks in the barrel to allow the brew to clear and to develop into a smooth, clean tasting beer.
*Will I need to buy anything else?*
The Micro Brewery Kit contains all the equipment required. There are lots of other accessories available should you wish to get into home brewing in a big way, but to start with our kit provides all the gear that you need to get started. The equipment included with the Micro Brewery will last for many years, all that is required to continue brewing is additional beer kits.
*Are all the beer kits the same and can they be brewed with this equipment?*
Essentially all the beer kits are quite similar, the difference is in the balance and style of ingredients which produces varying beer types. All the 3kg kits contain everything that you need. Kits weighing less than 3kg will need 1kg of sugar adding. Any beer kit can be brewed with this equipment.
*Will the Micro Brewery Kit be packed in one box?*
Yes, the kit is packed into an attractive presentation box. Please note: This is how it is delivered, if you require your kit to be disguised, please send a message to let us know.
*How long does the beer last?*
After your beer has finished brewing it`s best to drink it within a month. We provide a pressure barrel with our kit rather than bottles as they can be used for all styles of beer. Barrels are the best way to store Real Ales as they are at their best when lightly carbonated. If the beer is intended to be kept for a long time (up to a year) then bottles can be used, all bottles sold by us are designed to take the pressure of secondary fermentation. We find that customers often like to syphon half the beer into the barrel for drinking straight away and buy a pack of bottles to store the other half to drink in future.
*Will brewing my own beer save me money?*
One of the best advantages of brewing your own beer is the amount of money it will save you. Generally a 40 pint beer kit will cost around £20, so after purchasing the Complete Starter Kit you`ll be brewing top notch beer for 50p a pint!
*Can anybody make home brew beer?*
Absolutely! Instructions are included and it`s very straight forward. It is important to clean the equipment (with the included steriliser) and keep it at the suggested temperature but nothing difficult needs to be done - other than waiting!
