That was over twenty years ago, and today, the process nearly exactly the same. Buy grains, soak grains, throw away grains, use grain flavored water to start batch of beer. The first, and most important part of brewing is getting your equipment. Some people would like all new stuff, while others can deal with used equipment. It is a matter of choice. Today, the basic setup would include a glass carboy, or a seven gallon bucket. A large enough pot to hold at least two gallons of liquid. Some large stainless steel spoons and a colander. Home brewing beer is fun and enjoyable for all involved
