Anybody make there own Homebrew?

Which sites would you recommend to buy a Starter Kit.

Will be looking to buy Red Wine kit to start with.

Thanks.

Are you just wanting to make wine or beer aswell?

Wilkinsons is as good and as cheap as anywhere to start. Have a look online and I think they have 30% off at the moment.

Theres cheaper ways to make wines than the kits. The cheapest kit will work out about £1 a bottle, but you can make some decent stuff from just using supermarket juice and can make it for about 40p a bottle. Us home brewers like to save every little penny we can.

Youtube is great, some excellent videos on there to show you how to do stuff. And different recipes etc are all online, just google :-)

Thanks Buddy.
What do you make?

beers - mainly all grain but the occasionall kit beer as some of them are very nice and very easy to do
wines - have made about 10 wines, mainly from supermarket juice. made a great batch of rhubarb wine in the summer. the rhubarb was from my mam's allotment and it cost about 20p a bottle and was very nice, but very dry.
cider - really simple, normal apple juice from concentrate from the supermarket, yeast, and you will have cider at around 5% which is drinkable after a month, and nice after about 2 months.

its addictive!!

was looking at this over holidays, some nicer starter kits on ebay, with kegs and all the stuff needed. Bitter and cider ones i am going for.

Unless you have an expensive keg id advise bottling for beers. The cheap kegs can let pressure out so the beer is flat. Also bottles are easier to fit in a fridge, unless you have a seperate frodge just for them
