Coopers Starter Kit - Lager
Has everything needed (except a can-opener and water) to brew the beer kit.
The starter kit does not take up too much room and it should fit into a kitchen cupboard.
All the Equipment is re-usable, you will just need another beer kit and maybe some beer enhancer and sterliser for your next brew
This can be a excellent gift being in a full colour box.
We do recommed the use of steriliser

Plastic bottles may dent in transit, but just blow in them and they should regain form, if creased let us know How Easy?
Its very easy to make beer, This starter kit has all you need apart from water and sterliser
It takes approx 7-10 days to ferment the beer
Once fermented you need to store the beer to condition which will takes approx 3-4 weeks
You ferment the beer at room temperature anything from 16-21oC will be fine. Best not in a airing cupboard as this is far too hot
Then once bottled or barrel store at room temperature for 7-10 days to condition the beer, then more to a colder place to help clear the beer
Once the beer is made it will keep for 6 months - 1 year as long as the beer has conditioned in the bottle.
Anything Else?
To be honest Just Water
All the other equipment you are going to need is in the starter kit, there is lots of equipment around, but the starter kit has all you need to make a batch of good beer.
For your next brew you are likly to need
Another Beer kit ( does not have to be coopers, but coopers are great kits )
Fermenting Sugar or enhancer for the kit, unless a all malt kit which does not require fermenting sugar
If you have not drunk your beer then more bottles or even a barrel for your next batch
Sterliser is great to have spare amount of it, as you always run out when you need some
