Same ingredients as bread - devastatingly better results.

I'm thinking about going BIAB with an electrical set up of some sort, so I can do it in my kitchen. Ol Man Dick over here doesn't feel like sweating it out outside. Fortunately a lot of my 20 year old equipment is still functional and applicable (mainly my kegging gear).

Gear. Recipes. Technique. Whatcha got?

Edited to add: from here out Hexbear Homebrewers will be known as The HBHBs.

    I've been brewing for around 15 years now, and I used to work at a homebrew store. Sometime in the next few weeks we'll hopefully have a homebrewing segment on Fuck It We'll Do It Live with some advice on starting out for cheap.

    I tell everyone to start with hard apple cider, then try an extract-based wine or beer kit, and move up to all-grain brewing and kegging if you really like beer and want to make more complex recipes.
