    Temporary bottle caps to keep crud out after cleaning

    I just use the cap that i took off the bottle in the first place to cover the bottle again until its next fill. Granted its not air tight bit it stops any crap from getting in as you can just press it on with your hand and they clip into place.

    Hello sgaindubh there's lots of full grain kits available which would be a good starting point as you cant go wrong. Theres quite a few places sell them and you get all the grains crushed and weighed in 1 bag with the hops & yeast included to make what ever style of beer you like to drink with...

    Digital thermometer cheap and accurate

    Aye it was pretty quick at registering the temps but it was more that you could set a temp and when it was reached the alarm would sound and also you could set the timer and the alarm would sound when the timer hit zero. Good for timing your hop additions etc. Well worth a tenner in my opinion.

    Cheapest 30L Electric Kettle?

    I just bought a 40L Buffalo urn on ebay last week for £80. It is brand new but had a couple of small dents which don't make any difference to how it works hence why it was cheap. There are loads of 30l urns on there around £80 new.
