How To Make Your Own Beer At Home

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) June 30, 2010 -- Everyone needs a hobby. Something to take them away from the doldrums of life and work and put them on the path of relaxation. For some, its working out at the gym while others prefer to take their stress out on family members. Yet another group will head down to the local pub or restaurant and pass the time imbibing in a few adult beverages. If you're one of the latter group, you may have caught yourself asking the bartender why a certain beer tastes different from another and you've wondered if you could make that same beer at home.

So how do you make your own beer at home? I asked Paul Tomlinson, a real estate investor by day and home brewing expert by night. "My father used to make his own beer when I was younger but I never gave it a thought. After his passing, I inherited a bunch of beer making supplies. I headed down to my local brew shop and started asking 101 questions. Within a month, I was drinking my own homemade beer". Paul says that it all starts with the having the right supplies and a beer kit. A close third is sanitation. Everything must be absolutely clean or you will end up with bad beer.

The first thing that you need to do is hop on over to your local brew supply store to buy the right equipment. If you do not have such a store, you can find everything that you need on the internet. Understand that making beer is different from making wine so make sure you buy the correct equipment for the job. The next thing that you will need is a beer kit. You may be used to drinking lagers or ales. Well, now the world is open to you. Feel like a nice stout for the winter or how about a pilsner? Either way you literally can find hundreds of different choices on the internet.

Once you have your beer supplies and beer kit in hand, its time to get down to business. Follow the directions of the beer kit step by step. In just a short 60-75 minutes, you will have transferred your wort to the plastic bucket or carboy. Over the next week or two, your wort will ferment. You now have beer. Don't stop there though. You will unfortunately need to have some patience as you still have to add the priming sugar and move the beer into bottles for carbonation. About 3 weeks later, you'll be enjoying your first homemade beer.

Of course there are beginner homemade beer kits and more advanced homemade beer recipes but even the most basic newbie to this hobby can be enjoying the taste of their own homemade beer within 3-4 weeks.
