Basic Homebrew Equipment Kit for 5 Gallons of Beer (Bucket)

Our Basic Five Gallon Brewing Equipment Kit provides nearly everything you'll need for your first batch of homebrew. All you'll need to provide is a 5 gallon brewpot and approximately 50 12 ounce bottles!

Kit includes:

• 6.5 Gallon Bucket and Lid – This will be your primary fermenter, where your beer will sit for a few weeks after your brewday while you wait for the yeast to convert the sugar in your wort to alcohol.
• Three-piece Airlock and #2 Drilled Rubber Stopper – You'll stick these together, and into the top of your bucket lid, to ensure CO2 can get out, but no outside air can get into your fermenter.
• Adhesive Fermometer – Put this mini-thermometer sticker onto your fermenter to know the temperature at which you are fermenting.
• 6.5 Gallon Bottling Bucket with Spigot – This is the bucket with a hole in the bottom, which you will use to fill your bottles with finished beer. Spigot assembly included.
• 3' of 3/8” clear tubing – Used to connect your bottle filler to the bottling spigot.
• Bottle Filler – A spring-action tube that will make filling your bottles easy.
• Red Baron Bottle Capper – A simple tool for adding caps to bottles.
• One Step Cleaner – Combination cleaner and no­-rinse sanitizer. Crucial for making sure the only microbes fermenting your beer are the ones you intended.
• Triple-Scale Hydrometer – A tool used to measure the density of your beer. The difference in density before and after fermentation tells you the alcohol content.
• Auto Siphon and 5' of 5/16" clear tubing – Used to effortlessly transfer your wort from kettle to bucket, or from fermenter to bottling bucket.
• Beer Bottle Brush – Use to clean beer bottles. DO NOT use this brush to clean your plastic buckets – it will leave scratches that can harbor bacteria and potentially make your beer taste bad. Instead, soak your plastic containers in One-Step Cleaner.
• Thermometer – Accurately measure the temperature of your wort on your brewday.
• Stainless Steel Spoon – Good for stirring your beer during the boiling stage!
• Brewing Handbook – A quick reference guide to brewing.

Pair these items with one of our ingredient kits, and you'll be more than ready to craft your first and finest batch of homebrew!
