One of my hobbies is making my own beer. Surprisingly, not much equipment is needed. You need malt extract, grains, hops, yeast, and water. First, you boil the ingredients, except the yeast, for about forty-five minutes. Next, you allow the mixture to cool and then add the yeast and stir. Now you put the mixture in an airtight container and store it at room temperature for one to two weeks. At this point, you are ready to bottle your beer. Once bottled, the beer must stand for one to four weeks or more. The length of time depends on the exact type of beer. Before long, the brew will be ready for sampling.
