these are great.
I was given a mostly intact homebrew kit from a mate who moved away.
I had no clue about homebrew. Went and got one of these. and another. and another. and another.
perfect for understanding the basics, getting the home setup right, getting different ways to achieve the results like cleaning, preparing ,yeasts, various bottle sizes and types, refining the technique, and all along the way having this trusted baseline.
at every step I was asking the questions and getting the help and products I need to do it best for me.
Very much far most importantly at the end of the day(or start)- got to be drinking a tasty beer at a bottle shop can never beat price!!!
also it reminds me of the red cans which are a quality and reliable product.
