  • Newbie kit recommendations

    Hey fellas,

    So a mate of mine is keen as to start brewing AG, he is going to go with a 65l all in one benoni brew. I'm trying to find him a good starter kit that has all the little bibs and bobs you need. what do you guys think is the best starter kit on the market?
    So far from what I've seen the brew for Africa kit is the best on the market?? good price with a good assortment.

    Thoughts?

      Think he is referring to this - https://brewforafrica.co.za/products.html?catID=8

      I dont see any 60L fermenters though?

      My nfp starter kit was 1370 and I actually think it is better value for money than the brew for africa one.

      Below what's included in nfp starter

        Great thanks for that one. What kind of bottle filler does it have?
        Any leads on a good quality 50l ish fermenter? I got the 57l from beerplus myself and I don't like it much. Doesn't seal properly

          I use the same one, you have to get your hands on food grade silicone tubing and make your own gasket. That is the only way to do it.

            Cool thanks for the tip! how do you join the tube or do you just overlap it? did you also find the hole for the airlock too small? I cracked my bubbler trying to get it in.

                I drilled a bigger hole and inserted a silicone bung for the airlock. And yes, you get silicone joining liquid to join, or you can use a smaller piece inside, but ideally you want t sealed.

                  That would be my recommendation, pressure fermenter that can double as a serving vessel. I have the 35L one.
