Five Benefits For Attempting Home Brewing

Let me tell you- home brewing is great fun. Hands up - who tried home brewing as a teenager, stashing brews all over the place? Personally, I don't think you have lived if you haven't had a dodgy home brew explode. Thankfully, as adults we now have some of the best home brewing equipment available. Equipment that is much safer too. In recent years, with the recession, we have found that breweries have more tendency to offer their ales for production at home. Home brew kits on sale today are easy to use as well as offering excellent safety and hygeine. There are a number of home brew forums and websites dedicated to helping beginner and advanced home brewers.

Home brewing is also very cheap. The last batch of home brew I made cost around 20 pence a pint. If the credit crunch is hitting your pocket, and you like the old tipple (or eight), then home brewing actually has the potential to save you a packet load. For example my friends, will spend over 50 pounds on alcohol in one evening! While I cannot see that home brewing is for them, it does work for me. Two bottles of wine, or 8 bottles of wine a month, at an average of 5 pounds per bottle is 40 pounds. If you saved half by home brewing you save 20 pounds a month. Not a fortune, but then there is the fun and control you have over have what you brew.

Designing your own brew has to be the most enjoyable part of brewing at home. With the more advanced kits and ingredients you can totally design your own drink. If you ever wondered what adding chocolate to a beer would do, you can probably try it. With so much choice you'll have great fun thinking up your own brew. Amaze your friends with your own unique home brew.

One big advantage of home brewing has to be impressing friends. Imagine entertaining a girl and then asking her what she would like to drink. Nine times out of ten you'd get her some wine, perhaps. Imagine if you could bring out some elderflower champagne from under the stairs. Here's one I made earlier! You can also impress friends and family by offering them your own brew. If you are thinking of giving your Nan a bottle of home brew for Christmas though, make sure you keep an eye on the strength.

Being able to keep massive quantities of brew is one final advantage. I have stored so much booze under my stairs, I could hold parties for weeks! Most batches of home brew will let you store anywhere from 15 to 30 pints in one go. Thus, why not have 2 or 3 on the go, and you are sorted for booze for months! Imagine, you'd never have to visit the off license or pub again.
