Master Brewers Kit with Kegging Setup

No one wants to bottle, it's worth the extra money to spring for a kegging system right off the bat. The only qualms I have about the kit is it doesn't come with any sort of boiling kettle, aside from that I'd urge you to buy a few extra stick on thermometers to go on your kegs, then give you a pat on the butt and send you a brewing.

Best bang for the buck! The plastic spigot for the primary leaked a couple teaspoons before it quit, But that's the only problem I had. I would consider changing that to a ball valve for a couple extra bucks(out of 4 valves i had bought, three leaked a little bit). I easily added more equipment to the kit, I now have enough to brew three 5gal. batches in a day. The DVD and book are great (I also like millers home brew guide). Better than bottling, Great customer service, can't go wrong here.

I received this setup and an Irish Ale extract kit as a Christmas gift from my wife. I was all set (after running out to buy a brew kettle) and have found that it was pretty much everything I needed to really get started making some decent beer. A good add might be a decent thermometer, but other than that I was up and running. Everything is good quality.
One bit of advice: read the book!

This is a great little setup for beginning. The price is really AWESOME too... It would cost you double to buy all of the accessories separate. You will need a brew kettle as all as a hydrometer test jar. I recommend purchasing a thermometer and a nylon boil bag.

Overall I am pleased with the purchase.
The kegging equipment is great with one exception. The regulator dial is plastic and seems a little flimsy. I would have liked the option to upgrade the regulator.
The picture shows OneStep Sanitizer, but it actually comes with LD Carlson Easy Clean. I have heard conflicting reports of whether or not this is sanitizer or cleanser.... LD Carlson has the cleanser and sanitizer separated on their website.
Another minor thing I would add is a Carboy handle. They can get a little awkward when filled.

This deal is the best deal around! You get almost everything that you will ever need at such a low price, it's hard to beat. It even comes with a kegging setup! Recommended buy!

had a mix up in our order at first but the customer service was excellent and got it taken care of quickly. Id like to say thank you to everyone at midwest for the great customer service even over the holidays with shipping being delayed from storms and everything, you all did a great job. I bought the kegging system and have started brewing two beers already, me and my neighboor both brew so i will have to let you know how it goes in another review after ive had this for a while. But everything was here and ready to use. Cant wait to hook the man cave up and taste my black berry wheat and my flat tired beers. Again thanks to everyone at midwest for there great customer service, will use them for all my supplies from now on.

Probably the best deal around. If you price this out you are getting a good deal. All you need is a kettle.

I am new too brewing and didn't want to waist my time with hand bottling. Just brewed my first batch with this kit and everything went smoothly. I plan on adding a nylon boil bag, a second primary fermenter, and a second keg. Overall I think this kit is the way to go. I did a bunch of searching for the best deal for a kit before I purchased this. If your looking to get into brewing for the long haul buy this kit and don't look back.

If someone knows they want to jump into this hobby head first and not look back, this is a great kit. Kegging is definitely the way to go as it takes less time and you can force carbonate.
