A Newbie wants to know about MR.BEER

Nov 29, 2007 3 Replies

Hi all!



I'm seriously interested in finding out any pro's or con's on the MR. BEER kit...I've been reading BREW magazine and never finding anything at all talking MR.BEER so I figure this has got to be the basic home amateur - get your feet wet type of kit, but .... does this thing work? or am I just wasting my time?



I was thinking it might be an intro, a stepping stone so to speak...



I am the most basic beginner, anybody's feedback appreciated!



Thanks! and bottoms up!


I'd recommend getting a basic kit from your local brew store. shouldn't cost more than 50-60 bucks and you'll have a lot more fun with it. The beer will taste better (hopefully) as well.

Do you enjoy cooking? Cause brewing beer is basically sanitising and cooking. :)

I agree with Yohan. Check around and see if there is a local homebrew shop. If not, try one of the many online brewshops that have great beginning brew kits. Everyone that I personally know that used the Mr. Beer, ended up buying a better starter kit from elsewhere, anyway. Google homebrew and you will get tons of hits.
