Beer brewing began in European monasteries back in the 12th century, then Russian monks adopted the brewing technology. For a long time, brewing beer at home was prohibited by law for people, especially during the Soviet period. Anyone can brew at home today.
Beer brewing consists of three main stages: direct brewing, beer fermentation and sufficient aging, or post-fermentation. The technology seems simple, but eminent brewers warn that home brewing is an art.
Today it is possible to purchase mini-breweries for home use. By resorting to modern technology, you greatly simplify the brewing process. Beer wort can be purchased at a specialty store, or you can make your own. Store-bought beer extract contains all of the brewing ingredients: hops and barley malt.
