Slightly cheaper at their website. Free shipping and handling, and no tax for me, and I live in CA.
Total came to $34.95
Massdrop is $35.38. I got taxed and have to pay shipping and handling on Massdrop.
Not a big difference, but just letting people know.
Does it come with a complete tutorial to brew beer? And is it really a complete Brewing Kit, with no additional purchase required for someone who has not freaking idea about brewing? also where and how to restock the perishable items of this kit?
thebanikYou can use the hardware to brew anything: beer, kombucha, natural soda etc. The kit comes with concentrates. Basically all the components you'd extract yourself through a lot of time and labor comes in a can that you add to boiling water. You let the wort cool, add the yeast and let it sit in a hygenic container until the sugars have been eaten by the yeast. Then you bottle it with a littke more sugar called priming. The survivng yeast eat the sugar under sealed pressure of the bottles and creates carbonation.
Later, when you feel more confident making your own, you can go through all the steps of getting ground barely and malting it yourself and adding hopps then straining and dealing with the waste etc. Think of Mr. Beer as the beginners brewing kit. It doesnt make a terrible brew at all but you can make a much better one with time and love of the craft.
