A little spot where I pay homage to some great products and resources that I've used personally


Podcasts

Basic Brewing Radio

James Spencer's podcast is a great resource for all-grain and extract brewers. Also available through iTunes.

The Jamil Show on The Brewing Network

Jamil Zainasheff's podcast deals with one style per show and features some great recipes. Also available through iTunes.


Message Boards

Jim's Beer Kit

A British homebrew discussion forum which covers everything from brewing from kits through to building your own temperature controlled all-grain brewery.

UK Homebrew

A British homebrew discussion forum which tends to have slightly more technical edge than Jim's.


Organisations

Craft Brewing Association

The British homebrewing association for extract and all grain brewers.


Homebrew Stores

The Hop Shop

A really friendly, helpful British homebrew store and a well laid out website.

Hop And Grape

Probably the best stocked British homebrew store with the keenest prices. Website not as polished as some.

Northern Brewer

A big, well-stocked American store with good prices. It's a shame they've decided to only ship internationally using UPS which makes them prohibitively expensive.

Beer, Beer and More Beer

Arguably the best known of the American stores. Some prices seem a bit higher than Northern Brewer's but MoreBeer seem to have a bigger range of Pro stuff.


Other

Mr Malty

Jamil Zainasheff's page and home to the magnificent Pitching Rate Calculator(tm).

Brupaks

UK-based importer and distributor of all sorts of quality brewing kit. Does not sell direct to the public but anything you see here can be bought or ordered through the better UK homebrew stores.
