Hare of the Dog Brewing

I've been brewing now for several years. when I got interested I wanted to test the waters before committing so I got a Mr Beer kit and found the fun in making my own beer. I bought 3 books and found howtobrew.com and homebrewtalk.com . I then designed (well made) my KISS All grain brewing set up for less than £100 using some bits I already had. I make very good beer very easily, quickly and very cheaply. At current prices it is costing in ingredients around 15 to 20 pence per pint of premium craft brewed Ale and it takes me around four hour to brew. I love English bitter and Ales so I have a reasonable narrow recipe base but this does allow me to try and perfect recipes and techniques. I also make ciders and wines. Check out some of my recipes below.
Cheers,

I made most of this from cheap parts and Items I already had. The Total set up cost me under £70 including the burner. I reckon if you don't have any parts you could still do it for £150 - £200. The hardest part is getting hold of a legal keg.

"They take wheat barley, spelt, rye or oats, either one kind, or two or three together; they steep them in a fresh spring or good running running water or (which is even better) in boiled hop water, until the grain bursts out. Then the water is run off and the grains dried in the sun. The water in which the grain is steeped is kept; when the grains are dry they are ground in the mills and the meal is putis put into the aforementioned steep water. It is let boil for three to four hours and the hops added and all boiled up to a good froth. When that is done it is filled into other vessels. Some put a leaven into it and this soon gains a sharp biting flavour and is pleasant to drink."
