I had to watch this when i saw it . Make it sound like any cave-dweller can make beer. Glad they made an effort to talk about homebrewing, however i think in the end most will drink some awful tasting stuff and think like that guy at my plant that i make homebrew in the bathtub when not in use.https://news.aol.com/savings-experiment-video/beer?icid=main|main|dl8|link3|https%3A%2F%2Fnews.aol.com%2Fsavings-experiment-video%2Fbeer

Interesting video. Definitely for the beginner but then again I am sure all of us here were there one time. They should have brewed a batch or two more when they were waiting for the first to finish. Thats how you build up the beer supply. I did think that Toga Toga was silly but oh well. Keep em brewing!

I'd let her brew with me if she wanted... The thing that really caught my eye was the use of the autosiphon. I'm guessing he pumped the entire kettle into the carboy. That was, however, not bad for someone that never heard of home brewing and wanted to learn more.

So easy a caveman can do it? (sorry geico)Was she still cooking the wort when she added the yeast?

I didn't watch the autosiphon part before. Unless he moved that carboy - you are absolutely correct.

I thought the woman would make a great brewing partner. Looks like they brewed only a gallon. I gave up the self-dillusuion I was saving money by homebrewing a long time ago.

If I only had to buy ingredients I'd be saving money :)
