Great article folks. I’m really keen to try this out myself.
P.S. Your links on the equipment/ingredients page are broken. Looks like you left out the http:// and confused wordpress.

For those interested we run a site geared towards homebrewing at http://www.diybeer.co.za we also recently started selling homebrew supplies and kits, everything for extract and all grain brewers.

I bought a Coopers Home Brew Kit locally some 4 years back. It was fun and rewarding to brew my own beer. Coopers offers a wide range of beer concentrates. However, at a later stage I could not get the beer concentrate at the local store anymore and that was the end of my home brewing.
Recently, I read the article in an old edition of Getaway by coincidence and I will now try to obtain supplies from RSA.
