   When should I add extra ingredients to my home-brew beer?
   I want to experiment a little with regular homebrew beer kits by adding different ingredients, like coffee, fruits, chili and so on. At what point in the brewing process should I do this? During primary fermentation? At the priming stage? Help please.

   Non-aromatic additions can be made at flame-out or thereabouts.

   Aromatic additions or fruits are probably best added in secondary so the delicate volatiles are not carried away by the CO2 outgassing in primary.

   Also, not boiling fruit avoids pectin haze.

   It is cheaper to brew your own.

   Get yourself a homebrew kit for less than a tenner and you’ll make about 40 pints. 25p a pint.

   Buy it in the pub and you’ll pay about £2.50 a pint

   Why is it cheaper to buy beer than to make it yourself from a homebrew kit?
   There seems to be a market fallout here. Perhaps it has something to do with VAT being added! How can anyone believe that homebrew beer is a luxury item requiring VAT added! I remember the days when homebrew beer was the cheapest on the market. Not these days…..

   In Oz and James drink to britain, what did Oz put in his beer?
   They both mnade their own beers, Oz put malt extract, honey and some other things in his; I think it was fresh marjoram but I want to be sure before I add these ingredients to a homebrew kit beer.

    simple. get a
    6 gallon plastic bucket with lid,
    rubber stopper ,
    hose and a big cooking pot, I used my moms first time. . all of this can be purchase at a hard where store. for under 10USD

    get a recipe from the internet here is a start.

    I would imagine you could order all this online. But if not look through the ingredients and see what you can buy at the grocery store. The hops will be your biggest Challenge. once this is all collected boil it all up like the instructions say. take your boil and put it in the bucket and mix with enough water to make 5 gallon. cut a hole in the lid big enough to put your rubber stopper in take the hose and put it through the rubber stopper. run the hose to a smaller container of water. This will allow carbon to Escape with out letting oxygen in. it is a cheap version of a air lock. it is a must have! now wait two weeks open up your bucket. Bam flat beer! your almost done. now put all this in bottles and wait 2 to 3 weeks and you have about 48 to 50 12oz bottles. if you have to use recycled bottles you will need a bottle capper. brewing is alot of work and you will never pull it off with out someone finding out. but all you really need is what was listed above. remember be clean and sanitize everything.
