Coopers Beer
Every Man’s Dream: Brewing Beer at Home You will find the official Coopers beer page Here
Home brewing is something that every beer lover thinks about at one time or another. Those that actually try their hand at it, however, are far fewer in number.
You also get 30 bottles, a tap, a bottler, a brewers log, and an Australian Lager Package to start your brewing off. The fermenter has a six gallon capacity, much larger than most home kits. In addition to an instruction manual, a DVD-ROM is included to help you understand the process from start to finish.
The best thing about the Coopers Beer kit is the ease with which a beginner can learn to make beer. The DVD is extremely helpful, allowing you to see what you need to do visually instead of just reading it in print. The carbonation pills that come with it are also very convenient.
The clear bucket that comes with the Coopers Beer kit lets you see what’s going on inside while the beer ferments, which can be half the fun of brewing. The price is right for the beginner, so that if you decide that home brewing might not be the best thing for you, you’re not out much money. Also, there are plenty of beer kits available in plenty of styles so you can try out whatever beer recipes look interesting.
There are a few minor problems with the kit, as all good things must have a flaw or two. Cleaning it can be quite a chore and is best done with a hose in the backyard rather than in the kitchen.
The biggest problem is that it takes so much time to brew, so you may need two Coopers Beer kits if you want to always have a batch on the go.
The Cooper DIY Beer Kit is tailor-made for beginners who want to learn how brewing is done. It also makes the perfect gift for beer enthusiasts. If they decide that home brewing is not for them, then it can always come back to your house.
