I want to start making beer

Below is a link to an article which might help you frame how you would like to go.

I am getting the impression you are looking for a brewing system, is that correct?

If so, from the above linked article:

“Over the past few years, vendors have developed what are termed all-in-one systems for all grain brewing which cost in the range of $400 - $1000+ depending on size and features. For all grain brewers who prefer not to assemble their homebrewery themselves, this is an option.”

An article about all-in-one systems:

I personally homebrew the ‘old fashioned’ way using a big kettle and mash/lauter tun. I haze zero experience with these new all-in-one systems.

Cheers!

P.S. There are lots of other articles on the MoreBeer.com website which you could further explore,

 

I ended up preferring using my stove for a lot of my home brewing. But, It's a gas driven one. It has a lot less boil off, and It provides a nice gentle boil, over a strong vigorous one; which is a banjo burners strong suit. And, unless I really want to boil something down for flavor and a higher gravity. Gas derived fire will make your brew day go by a LOT faster. But, you can figure out workarounds to less the amount of waiting during hot side, and also experiment with no boil brewing.
Firstly. questions about water.
Homebrewing in American can occur in any size from 1 gallon on up to 15 (i.e. 1 bbl) For value to time and to output. I'd consider a 5 gal set up.
Hot side considerations. If you aren't able to invest in a banjo burner for the outdoors. How much water can your stove get to a boil? i.e. How long do you think getting 4 - 5 gallons u.s. to a gentle boil would take. Also. In the interest of saving time. How hot does your tap water come out at?

 

This forum can be a great source for making decisions about homebrewing. It can be advice about whether and how to get started, or just general or specific information about the best way to do something, etc. Here's a link to a recent thread that has a lot of good discussion about homebrewing in general.

The last time I searched for this free online version of Palmer's book I couldn't find it. Now it seems that it's back: http://www.howtobrew.com/intro.html

OP, this is the first edition of the book, but it will give you the help that you're looking for.

 

Are you going to boil your water with gas or electric? Your answer could determine the procedure that you will need to use to make your beer.

 

Yes.

From the article I linked in post #21:

· Wort Chiller to cool down 5+ gallons of wort: $65 - $250

· Grain mill (if you mill your own grains): $120+

· (48) 12 oz or (24) 22 oz cappable Beer Bottles or a Home Kegging System to package your beer

Plus other assorted stuff.

You should go to your Local Homebrew Store and they will provide more details.

Cheers!

 

Home beer making is a hobby, but before you spend $1000 getting started, just remember that you don't need fancy equipment to produce good beer. Brewing is no different than any hobby. If you give a pro photographer an iPhone, he or she will take (way) better pictures that some noob with a $10000 setup. A decent equipment starter package for less than $150 (Homebrew Equipment Starter Kit - Classic - 5 Gallon Single Stage Kit | Jasper's Home Brew Supply (boomchugalug.com). Typically these kits consist of core equipment, which may be used to ferment everything: beer, wine, cider and mead. You will find it much easier to begin beer making using extracts. If later you decide you love the hobby and want to get more detailed in your process, then you can move up to all grain brewing. If you want to check out some good recipes, these guys are my local home brew store, and they have some of the best recipes that I've ever brewed: https://boomchugalug.com/collections/beer-kits. The Palmer book is one of the best, but books can be abstract. It's always helpful to watch a few Youtube videos to see it actually being done. Don't worry if different people say different things. There are many ways to get an excellent brew. Have fun!
