Any suggestions? I'm looking for a good place to by a starter kit. What all will I need to get started?
That's why I want to go to the class. Maybe after the class I can just buy what I need, rather than buying a kit. And yes, I think I can boil some water and use a thermometer, but the other details about how long the fermenting process is, what to look for, and things to do and not to do. Also, I'm sure the whole process is not the same for every type of beer. And there are so many different types of ingredients to use and different ways to use them to make different types of beer.
I finally got started a year or two back and bought a starter kit from Midwest Supplies. For a beginner (which I still am) it's literally as easy as following a recipe.
Once you've done a few batches this way you'll want to step up your game and get into whole grain brewing. That's not something I've taken the plunge on solo yet, but I'm hanging out with some guys that do and picking up some pointers.
It's fun - go for it. It will give you a new appreciation for beer.
