    Brewing beer in Istanbul? (First all-grain beer)

    Hi Cenkercakin, please see my previous post....sorry to say that those things are just not sold here. I bring everything with me from the States or Europe. I hate to say that Homebrewing in Turkey is a desperate and less than viable hobby. Really really sorry about your hops, and very tasty...

    Brewing beer in Istanbul? (First all-grain beer)

    Hi. I speak Turkish and have tried for a while to ask / google / etc to find materials. I can say that you just can't get it. There was a supplier from Germany several years ago that was investigating the market, and didn't find a big enough demand to start offering beer ingredients. Boooo I...

    Brewing beer in Istanbul? (First all-grain beer)

    Hi Wilden! I got all my things shipped here, or I brought them myself. There's really nothing here, nor really any culture of making beer. I have just made one batch so far, getting ready for my second, but have to wait till it cools off a bit I think. I'll send you a private message, perhaps we...
