Suppose you’ve read up on how to make beer at home, and you’ve taken a particular interest in learning this new and exciting hobby. You’ve known about the steps to brew, you’ve considered how much time you need to invest, and now you’re looking at brewing equipment (like the brewing kettle)! A brewing kettle is a piece of homebrew equipment that is used to boil and combine your wort with hops, sugars, and other flavors for a period of 1 to 1.5 hours. Brew kettles (or boiling kettles) are essential to the entire brewing process and can be purchased or made at home.The rest of this...…Suppose you’ve read up on how to make beer at home, and you’ve taken a particular interest in learning this new and exciting hobby.

Instead of spending vast amounts of money on store-bought beer, making your own may be more fulfilling. You can learn how to make beer at home, but it might take some time to get used to the technical details, like pH balancing. So what should the pH of homemade beer be?The pH of beer made at home should be 4.1-4.5. Most homebrewers aim for a pH of 5.2-5.6 at the beginning because this produces a clearer, more flavorful beer. The fermentation process reduces the pH until it settles at 4.1-4.5, with some beers being even lower on the scale.The pH scale ranges from 0-14, with levels 0-7...…Instead of spending vast amounts of money on store-bought beer, making your own may be more fulfilling.

Brewing your own beer can be an incredibly rewarding experience. But before you begin crafting your own brew, there’s one essential piece of equipment you’ll need: a fermentation vessel.Fermentation vessels are temperature-controlled containers where your wort ferments into a delicious drink. You can purchase commercial fermentation vessels or repurpose mason jars and wooden barrels. For precise temperature control, it’s best to keep jars and barrels in a fermentation chamber.There are all sorts of containers you can use as fermentation vessels, and you can either purchase brand-new or use...…Brewing your own beer can be an incredibly rewarding experience.
