What extra materials would you need for all grain brewing?

I really don't know. I personally have not looked into it but I would suspect that someone is pre-packaging the ingredients.

To be 100% honest i wouldn't know. What i will say is don't be in a hurry to go grain. It is recommended that you go at least a year before grain. This kit is great for getting the basic technique down. Some local brewers my brother in law and i spoke with recommend getting Good at making one beer for a while (like 3-4 batches). Then try another. Then another. And then maybe you are ready for grain.

Quite a bit more, a 7.5 gal or larger kettle, a 10 gallon minimum round or square cooler with a ball valve, a smaller cooler with a ball valve as a hot liquor tank, various lengths of silicone tubing, mash paddle or spoon, and some form of false bottom or manifold for inside your mash tun. There are myriad other items that would be helpful/necessary. Likely propane bottle and burner as well. I would recommend at least a couple of batches of extract brewing first, but going all grain is not that bad. DO your reading on all grain, there are a lot more factors to control, but your beer will often be fresher with less chance of stale ingredients.

If this is your first time home brewing you will need a few additional items; a large pot that will allow you to boil at least 3 gallons of water with another 2 gallons of head space, a fermentation/bottling bucket can be one or two different buckets, an auto siphon, a capper, and some sanitizer such as Star San. I would also suggest you pick up a copy of "How to Brew" by John Palmer.

You will need basic brewing equipment. ..A kettle, a bucket, airlock, bung, hoses, siphon, carboy, sanitizer. ..Probably missing a few things but the good news us is that there is a kit for most of this stiff as well. ... That is how we started out.

Everything you "need" is in the kit. My Bohemian was "perfectly fine" if unmemorable as brewed. As your brewing experience grows you will most likely "want" to add other stuff to turn "perfectly fine if unmemorable into damn good and memorable", but you have to crawl before you walk! Agree, read How to Brew by Palmer.

As the other person said, probably but dont need one. When I brew, I just use a sheer curtain which helps act as a sediment filter and makes grain disposal a breeze.

This Kitchen Mill WILL mill the following materials that have less than 15% moisture content: Wheat Lentils Garbanzo beans Barley Pinto Beans Chickpeas Most Type Beans Millet Green Peas Split Peas Legumes Oats Corn (including Popcorn) Soybeans Mung Beans Rice Sorghum (milo) Spelt Feed/Field corn Rye Triticale Quinoa Oyster shells Kamut Amaranth Teff The Kitchen Mill WILL NOT mill the following materials due to stickiness, oils, and moisture content: Sugar and Salt All seeds including Sunflower & Sesame Nuts of all kinds including Peanuts Dried fruits including dates and raisins Tapioca Pearls Coffee Beans Mesquite Beans - too fibrous Flaxseed Fresh or dried Herbs Fresh or dried Spices I have been very successful using my coffee grinder for this kind of jobs. It works great and usually you don't need many cups of nut or seed flour at a time.

Yes - everything you need is included (but the tea) to make great ice tea. I use two family tea bags in the basket. When it is finished brewing just rinse everything and you are ready for the next brewing.

Everything you need except a good brewing pot (I recommend a 6 gallon aluminum pot), bottles, and some basic kitchen stuff like measuring cups, measuring spoons, and a small (~2 quart) pot. I would also get them a basic beer kit such as the True Brew Irish Stout, also sold by Amazon. That was the first beer I brewed using this kit, and it worked great. You'll need about 50 12 oz bottles. You can just use empty beer bottles, or you can buy new bottles just for home brew. Good luck!

Yes Sanjay, that is exactly my predicament at this moment, as both kind of materials i.e metal and stone may leave residuals. So i am unable to make sure which grain mill to go with. So far i am sure i won't buy anything with Corundum. May be "Basalt in Magnesite" as used on those Schnitzer grain mills may be worth researching. If you come across some other solution then please share.

the sanitation packet should be included in the kit. You have everything you should need to make the brew. Try adding fruit in a hops sack to change up the flavor raspberries make an excellent addition.

I'm not sure , sorry. I have used the pot lots and have been very happy with it mashing grains for beer.

Works fine for barley and corn for brewing. Not designed for making flour, cannot gring grains only crush.

No. You should buy the kit if you want everything. This is just the replacement brewing container.

I don't know if you already did this, but adding gluten flour to whole wheat recipes helps develop structure. Most whole grain recipies include about 1.5 tablespoons gluten flour to 3 cups whole wheat flour. Try using in published bread machine recipe for whole wheat bread and follow it precisely first time out. If it comes out okay, then you can experiment a bit.

Yes- malt and yeasts. But you need maple syrup- couple table spoons. No hardware

You COULD, however you need all the necessary larger mashing/boil/chill/fermenting equipment. Also, you're better off buying BBS's book, as they have the 5 gal recipes of the kits they sell plus others. I would also recommend buying all your grains/hops and fresh yeast from a local brew shop or Northern Brewer. These small 1 gal kits are.good for a beginner, but you'll find cost for buying supplies and effort for making 5-10 gals drives your cost per gallon down considerably.

The only way home brewing would be an option is if you were able to reuse an old barrel. I doubt stores sell an empty barrel.
