We graduated to whole grain brewing and don’t do the pre-made kits. My son is the real Guru of the operation and he has about $9,000 in equipment including of course a kegerator for the end results but the kegerator was donated from my brother. The more you get into this the more you realize it’s not an easy or an inexpensive hobby. But it’s damn sure rewarding.

Hey, I’m making myself thirsty just thinking about it.

By the way, the promise of coffee "in seconds" is nothing new.

The power of advertising! Even a man can do it!

The Greek set at places of higher education are going to love this.

Then they turned it all into wine."

One long strand...... damn, I haven’t heard that one since I was a teenager (I’m about to retire)

create crafted beer in seconds by simply adding a unique Blondie concentrate to Sparkling Water.

Not sure how one can make "beer" in seconds by adding flavor to carbonated water. But it is a step up from tap water LOL

"I can’t believe it’s unlawful to vape in an outdoor arena in California."

Water as a vapor is the single largest greenhouse gas not to mention how dangerous it is as a liquid and even more so when a solid.

[right way right]

I’m reminded of ‘Tang’.

[goldstategop]

I love Tang.

A step up from tap water - still made with real sugar.

It would be literally impossible to brew an “instant beer” that didn’t taste closer to horse piss than to a quality beer.

[over3Owithabrain]

I don’t get the punchline.

[PJ-Comix]

Walter White’s brother-in-law brewed his own brand of beer.

[Svartalfiar]

Hmm.. So what do you keep this machine stocked with? does it have a tub or beer-flavor, and a second tub of everclear that it just mixes into the tap water?

[Dr. Sivana]

St. Brigid of Ireland was known for turning water into beer (through the power of God). . . for FREE! And MUCH better beer!

[skimbell]

aaand?

[skimbell]

That's what I was thinking.

When I was in school something like this would have been in every room on the whole floor.

[MHGinTN]

I’m wondering if it has an alcohol level???

I’ve just brewed my second batch of mead today. The first batch is a month old.

((I have no idea what I’m doing))

Makes more economic sense than the soft drinks did, but who wants a Blonde beer.

Beer...good. Blondes...GREAT! Blonde beer.... nasty crap!
