hello all , any advise on getting started would be great , I drink red, wife white ,live in Perth Oz so can anyone direct me to a place where I can get two starter kits for a good price ? Also once you have all the equipment , is it a cheap hobby ? Where should it be brewed as its hot outside , air con inside .....any help will be much appreciated ............and "Merry" Christmas to you all ........
 
Nick,
First and foremost, Welcome to WMT. I would check out http://www.finevinewines.com/, and http://brewandwinesupply.com/ both real great places to shop.
Once you have most of the equipment, it gets a little cheaper.
As far as temps, I'd brew and/or make wine indoors in your neck of the woods.

thanks PKM ,will check out both sites , I take it that its best not to rush things ? but if I get a starter kit , how long will it take to be drinkable ?
 
NickinOz....assume that you are in Australia. If not please tell us where you are located (at least roughly). I assume that shipping will be dreadful on carboys etc shipped from North America. First suggestion, find out what is available in Australia.

What are you planning on making, beer or wine, or both?

thanks , ive just been on the malthouse site ! I have a u brew it shop 5 mins away and have made a few good brews there ,but tbh you cant go wrong as they brew it , we just throw the ingredients in and bottle it , good fun though .
I`m planning on brewing red and white as we go through so much of it , would be great to have our own on tap .........will check out these site now , cheers
 
Very cool! I'd rather make my own than watch someone else make it for me, no challenge like that at all.
Keep us posted and we will help you with any question that you have!
