10 Home Brewing Tips, Recommendations, and Hacks – Week 4 – Tips 31-40

I was working to share knowledge I’ve learned over the years and to inform on things every home brewer should be aware of from Beginners to Advanced and some you may have never heard of.

I will work to share 10 different home brewing tips every week for the next 10+ weeks.

1. Buy supplies based on long-term needs.
2. Buy supplies / equipment during sales
3. Buy two of everything glass
4. Buy an accurate thermometer (don’t assume based on price)
5. Buy hose by the roll and always have spare on hand.
6. Spare parts – buy in quantities when possible – disconnects as an example 7. Buy the right sized carboys or even brewing systems.
8. Carboy handle
9. Wood mash paddle with flat edge on bottom and holes to allow flow
10. 2 Digital scales – 1 for grams and 1 for ounces and pounds

These tips will range from cleaning to equipment recommendations to procedures/tricks/hacks/tips using during home brewing.
