1. Brewer’s Best Beer Recipe Kit

I owe my entire brewing career on Brewer’s Best! I was able to make amazing beers right off the rip. And the amazing thing is you can too!!

2. Star Sans

I know this sounds silly, but I ADORE this sanitizer. It is so easy to use and you are sure to have properly cleaned equipment and bottles. Because, trust me, it is really easy for bad bacteria to grow while you are fermenting or brewing!

3. Label Making Paper

homebrewing

When I started brewing I was obsessed with my labels. I had a friend draw up a snazzy logo and BAM! This paper is so easy to use, you can just print on it like normal paper. Then, you put a little water on the one side and slap it onto your bottles!

You can purchase the label paper here to make your crafted drinks professional πŸ˜‰

4. One Gallon Fermenter & airlock

I swear by a one gallon fermenter. They are so versatile from soda making, beer brewing, and more! You will get your use out of this for sure!

Flip top bottles make for easy bottling, and you don’t have to keep purchasing bottle caps! They are super easy to clean, especially with Star Sans πŸ˜‰

A book that has changed my perspective on brewing, sodas, and fermentation. I practice a TON of his teachings.
