hello,
anyone here have a home brew kit?, or a beer pump
i am looking to have my own beer pump from a keg anyone have any idea of what i will need and how much it will cost,

cheers kieran

Lord Shagg-Pyle:
The best thing to look for is the local free ads paper. In theory all you need is a decent sized 25ltr plastic drum, with a hole in the top for a vapour lock. That'll do for the fermentation bit.
You can then either bottle the result, or go for a pressure barrel.
Have a look on here:

I can recommend the Woodfordes Norfolk Ales home brew kits, especially the Headcracker :evil:

 Try your local home brew specialist shop.  One in Wakefield sells the complete set up for hand pump.
 I used to have one that would lift from the celler with no problem. 
 Another thought. With the number of pubs shutting down, it might be possible to buy a hand pump set up reasonably from
someone in the trade.

We are lucky as we have this

He hires out the pump for about £15 + the cost of a barrel of beer, and his beers are fab.
Have a look for small independant brewers near to you.

I brew my own beer and keg it, you can use sodastream gas with and adaptor or go to you local gas supply and get CO2 from them
Trust me to get the gassing right it will take a few go's

I also do my own spirits (may not be legal in the Uk)
