Home Brewing Supplies

Home brewing supplies come in all shapes and sizes, depending on what you would like to brew.

Here at brew Mart, we can supply you with all the brew making supplies you need.

What brew making supplies would I need to start brewing?

Apart from the brewing equipment, which once you have purchased, you can use over and over again, you will need some brewing ingredients.

Of course, a home brew kit for wine, beer, cider or spirits is a good start, however here we wish to cover the extra home brewing ingredients you may need to start a beer or wine from scratch or products to enhance your brew.

The best home beer-making ingredients you can buy must be home brew grains, hops, and yeasts. The selection of grains and hops for beer and lager making are inspirational. You can stick to your favourite recipes or experiment to create a new masterpiece. 

Brew Mart endeavours always to offer the best homebrew yeasts available. You can choose from a vast array of beer, lager, cider, wine or champagne, to name a few.

Home brewing supplies that can enhance any wine are juice concentrates. Juice concentrates can be used as the primary ingredient to make wine or added to a wine kit to give an extra lift.

Brew making ingredients also include dried fruit and flowers. What a treat to enjoy your own made elderflower cordial, and using dried elderflowers, means you can make it at any time of the year.

 Alcohol brewing ingredients would never be complete without using dried fruit. Dried berries give that extra zing to many an alcoholic beverage.

When fresh fruit isn’t in season, dried fruits are great for making wine in the winter months. A small amount imparts a lot of flavour and body, which many fresh fruit wines can lack. Drying any food intensifies the flavours, which is a significant benefit for winemaking as these intense flavours shine through in the finished wine.

Essential brewing ingredients for any winemaker to have in their store cupboard are a selection of tubs of acids or alkailis. These are available in small tubs and are very beneficial in balancing the taste of wine if it tastes too acid or too liven it up if more acid is required.

The most basic brewing ingredients are brewing sugars and malt extracts. It does not matter whatever you are brewing. Sugar is an essential ingredient to brew alcohol as it is fermented by the yeast to produce alcohol. You have a choice of brewing sugars when brewing beers. You can choose a malt extract, either dry or in liquid form. Malt extract will give body and flavour to any brew. Carbonation drops make it super easy to accomplish secondary fermentation during beer making. They come in the exact right size, shape and dosage to drop into the neck of a beer bottle.

Lactose and brewing sugar are the better sugar to use in winemaking.

Enzymes are a must for home beer making supplies. These include Pectolase, Rohavin and Isomerized Hop Extract. All are very effective when brewing beer,

Why are enzymes important in brewing?

Using enzymes in the brewing process can play an essential role in enhancing the overall fermentation and brewing process. They actively improve the overall taste and speed up the fermentation process. Enzymes are organic substances, which are complex. They are useful to brewers, who use them to speed up a reaction.

Brewers use Pectolase when making wine from fresh fruit. Without Pectolase, a pectin haze could form and stop the wine from clearing. 

The next stage is finings, clearing agents for wine, beers and spirits.

Brew Mart always carry a good selection from which you can choose.

We then come to finishing agents. As the name suggests, these are products used after fermentation to give that finishing touch. 

If you wish to extend the life of your finished beer or wine, take a look at our Stabilisers & Preservatives for home brewing. All come with full instructions for use.

Using the homebrew supplies and quality beer-making ingredients for beer production, which Brew Mart stocks, you can create any craft award-winning beer recipe.

All our grain brewing hops, malts and yeasts come packed in small batches for freshness. We stock the right choice of beer, making ingredients including yeasts, distillers, yeast, adjuncts, additives and grains to help you produce your perfect drink.

Brewing ingredients for lager are very similar to those for beer-making ingredients. Brew Mart stock the relevant grains, hops and yeasts to enable you to make a very successful lager.

 Fruit juice concentrates, and the appropriate sugar and yeast are also very successful homebrew ingredients for winemaking.

Not every brewer reaches the stage of creating recipes from home brew ingredients, which is very acceptable. Those brewers have an excellent choice in Brew Marts range of beer, wine and cider home brew kits. 

These kits enable you to make your tipple choice, knowing that it will be perfect each time you you decide to have a go.
