I fancy brewing some beer

This brewing kit was posted in a recent thread for 'presents for my dads 60th.' I fancy buying a kit and brewing some beer for myself.

From PH'ers experience, is this a good kit or are there better for the price? Anything for around that price or less please, dont want to spend more than £30-40.

cheers

Thanks. Is there any noticeable difference between an 'all-in-one' kit where you just pour water into a single vessel and leave it, and the kit you posted where you ferment it in one, then transfer into another later on? The all-in-one kit i posted would take up less room on the kitchen surface.

Thanks for the advice all, i'll go for the 2 container kit linked to on ebay, or similar from a brew shop if i can find one nearby. As you say, only one container is in use at a time, so the unused one can be put in the garage.

Now got to look for which kit to start with. Too much to choose from!

This may be getting too anal, but i live in quite a hard water area, is it worth buying cheap spring water from Tesco or is tap water fine?

cheers
