Description

  • Everything that comes with our Deluxe kit plus some major upgrades
  • Large 8.5-gallon brew kettle with ball valve port for easy transferring of liquids
  • Copper wort chiller offers a quick & convenient way to chill wort — no ice bath required!
  • Step-by-Step instruction pamphlet fine-tuned over 20 years for easy success
  • Your choice of recipe kit included

The Premium Homebrewing Starter Kit is our "get the best to start with" kit and comes with all the bells and whistles!  Included in this beer brewing starter kit is a massive 8.5 gallon stainless steel brewing kettle, 7 gallon Fermonster fermenter, copper wort chiller, choice of ingredient kit, and all the time tested brewing equipment you need to make beer at home.  Long story short, this kit has everything you need to start home brewing!

We started with our Deluxe Homebrew Starter Kit (BRKIT200) and upgraded the brew kettle to an 8.5 gallon model. The larger volume kettle allows for Full-Boil brews which can have lighter color and better hop flavors. The included kettle spigot makes transferring liquid from your kettle to your Fermonster Fermenter safe and easy. Our kettle also includes a thermometer port with plug so that you can add a dedicated kettle thermometer at any time. You will also enjoy the new silicone handle grips and internally stamped volume markers. Then in order to quickly cool the beer after boiling we included our WC20 copper Wort Chiller (a $60 value!).

To top it off, we upgraded the Fermonster by a gallon to a massive 7 gallon capacity. This can be key down the road when you want to brew certain styles of beer that foam a lot during fermentation. With smaller fermenters it can bubble right out of the top. Stay out of trouble by never making a mess!  

A larger kettle, wort chiller and bigger fermenter are some of the first upgrades new brewers make—save yourself the hassle and purchase these items at an amazing value as part of the Premium Homebrew Starter Kit, from Morebeer!™

The Fermonster Fermenter - A Huge Upgrade Over Standard Buckets or Glass "Carboy" Water Bottles
Unlike buckets or glass carboys, the Fermonster fermenter was designed for brewing beer. It is made from tough, clear, virgin grade PET plastic so you can see the magic of fermentation. Unlike glass it will never break and shatter if dropped. It represents a huge upgrade over traditional buckets because these fermenters are much less likely to get scratched. Scratches can hold bacteria that can cause off flavors in the beer.  The Fermonster comes with a built-in spigot that eliminates a long time issue in homebrewing of having to start a siphon to transfer your beer to the bottling bucket after fermentation is over. The large 4" lid allows for easily adding yeast, hops, or other additions. We also really love the molded-in level markers that tell you exactly when you have reached your desired volume.

We Don't Skimp on Cleaning and Sanitizing
Proper cleaning and sanitizing is one of the core tenants of making great beer. Some starter kits utilize an all-in-one cleaner/sanitizer that does neither job well.  We’ve included the best-selling sanitizer for brewing, Star San.  We also include Craftmeister oxygen-based cleaning tablets that make cleaning your Fermonster Fermenter a breeze.

Other Upgrades That Make Brewing Easier
We’ve also made a few items standard that really make the brew day easier including a thermometer for temperature monitoring and a hydrometer with testing jar for measuring sugar levels. Our reusable mesh bags allow for the easy removal of spent grain and hops at the end of the boil. The included stainless spoon is a really nice upgrade over plastic when you are stirring boiling liquids.  

Easy to follow, How-To Instructions with Videos & a FREE 800 Number with Actual Brewers to ask questions!
We've taught hundreds of thousands of people how to brew in over 25 years. Our instructions are clear and simple to follow and will have you making great beer with batch number one. If you have any questions, call our on-staff brewmasters at 1-800-600-0033. In an age where 800-numbers and real customer service is going away, you can still call us and ask a question.

Recipe Options:

  • American Ale produces a light colored, hoppy Pale Ale that puts the beloved Cascade hop on full display. Cascade hops are one of the classic American hop varieties, and we love them for their citrus, grapefruit character.
  • Pliny the Elder is a truly amazing beer with a cult like following. This beer is an intense Double IPA that is highly bitter with an intense hop flavor and aroma thanks to its 9 separate hop additions.
  • Haze Craze is our most popular New England IPA recipe kit. This Hazy IPA is packed with all of the hop character you'd expect from a super juicy NEIPA, and is sure to please even the most discerning hop head. Wheat and oats lend a delightful mouthfeel and silky texture.
  • Anchorage Amber is modeled after the very popular Alaskan Amber® Ale. For those who appreciate rich malt character much more than hop flavor, this beer is a must.

This Kit Includes:
 

  • 7 Gallon Fermonster fermenter with built in spigot, stopper, and airlock
  • 8.5 Gallon Stainless Steel Brew Kettle w/ thermometer port, stainless ball valve, internal volume markers, Silicone handle grips
  • Copper Wort Chiller for quick cooling
  • Food Grade Bucket for bottling
  • Mesh bags for grain and hops on brew day
  • A Thermometer for easy temperature management
  • Hydrometer for making key sugar measurements
  • Transfer Tubing
  • Bottling Wand with shut off valve
  • Sturdy Bottle Capper
  • Bottle Caps
  • Bottle Cleaning Brush 
  • Star San Sanitizer for true sanitizing
  • Large Stainless Steel Spoon for mixing
  • Craftmeister Cleaning Tablets for super easy cleaning

Hi I'm new to brewing and I bought the Premium Home Brewing kit really wondering if there's video on setup or pictures I didnt get nothing?
Thanks
Brent olson on Aug 8, 2018
BEST ANSWER: I have the same question. If I could register the product (I received as a gift) maybe I could see information online?
Will a regular household electric stove be hot enough to heat 6 gallons of water in the kettle that comes with this kit to make the wort ?
VERONICA G. on Nov 18, 2021
BEST ANSWER: My electric stove did not heat 6 gallons to a boil. You can do a partial boil and not worry about boiling over.
Will this be good for Hazy IPA's? That's strictly what I'll be brewing. Any other equipment I'll need? Suggestions welcome.
JamesC814366206 on Jul 25, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Hey James, this is a really good kit! I brew a variety of different beers. Found that this is all I need to brew awesome beer from Morebeer!!

First attempt ever to brew beer
Just arrived today and everything looks intact. Delivered by FedEx and box was a bit bent where clearly heavy items were on it. The bottom half is protected with an extra cardboard insert. My recommendation for packaging is to make it the whole box because the metal cover to the pot sits on top and will eventually be crushed. The sales rep. Was super polite and had answers to all my questions.

Only problem I have is the bottle capper, it doesn't hold the ridge well and slips badly, I don't know if it's a bad one or what! It's a real pain especially when it slips and the bottle ends up dumping beer everywhere….I would appreciate some help with this.

Pretty slick kit.
Evertything arrived. It was well packaged. I really like everything. The brew kettle dors have a pinhole in the weld around the drain spout and leaks a bit. Disappointing but not deal breaker. Only Leaks about a drop every two minutes is all. Would have been 5 stars otherwise.

Premium Brew Kit
yea, received the Premium Brew Kit. Box looked like it had been bounced around, taped and re taped and covered in dirt.
All items were in the box, but it appeared that the wort chiller was a used return item and the bottling wand was missing the plunger and spring. Also lots of black polishing compound on the brewpot and lid. C'mon guys....

I took a 5 year break from homebrewing due to moving to Az. I go back a long time with Morebeer and was hoping for maybe some decent quality control on items being shipped, as in the past.

Honestly it was like having my own mentor on the phone. Again great kit and great for the beginner to build upon.
What a great starter kit.. Has everything you need to do an all grain brew. I am brand new at brewing beer and utilized the online chat an 800 number for advice. The customer service staff, at least the ones I spoke to, we’re all experienced Brewers and guided me right through it. Honestly it was like having my own mentor on the phone. Again great kit and great for the beginner to build upon.

Not very premium
Why does this premium brewing kit come with literally the cheapest thermometer you have? I got a tiny pocket thermometer that's about 2" long to stick in a giant 8.5 gallon brew kettle. I kind of expected one of the clip on kettle thermometers out of the "premium" kit.
