Is homebrewing legal in the UK?
In modern-day Britain, homebrewing is legal and booming once again. Unlike the 1970’s era homebrewers who brewed beer from cheap kits to save money, today’s brewers aspire to quality, and many go on to open microbreweries, although this requires a government permit.
Is homebrewing worth the money?
The truth is that homebrewing won’t save you a fortune unless you don’t mind drinking very low-quality beer. You can save money in the long run, but that requires you to make a commitment and not quit after a few batches. When talking actual numbers in terms of cost of homebrewing your own beer, the prices vary a lot.
How long does it take to brew 5 gallons of beer?
Under normal circumstances, it will take about 2-4 weeks for both a 5-gallon and 1-gallon batch of homebrew ale to finish primary fermentation despite the difference in total volume. Using a yeast start can help the fermentation start quicker for both batch sizes but the total amount of time will be similar.
