off topic, but while I'm thinking about it-seeing your name, is it difficult to learn how to brew beer?
it's the one thing on my prepping list I don't have a solution for, and a good tomato beer can make crappy days a bit better, so I'd like to have a back up plan in case the stores run out.
that's what I'm noticing after watching a few videos, might not be something to dive into right now. will stock up on tomato juice/more spices since it's the vitamins I'm after. beer just adds some extra fizz.

It's easy to learn; not so easy to be successful.

How to Brew by John Palmer is a good book to get started as well as the Homebrewers Association.
How to Brew Volume 4 is what I recommend to everyone.
thanks that looks like a good one, and not expensive. also think it's something my family could understand/help me with.
For prepping purposes bottle don't keg. Start off with extract kits so you understand the process but eventually move to all grain. It's a fun hobby!
