So i've been doing research into starting homebrewing for about a month now and I know I won't learn anything more till I start, so I just have a couple of questions that are still unawnsered
1) I've seen "Coppers" kits and they don't come with an airlock, instead they use what ive seen being called as the "burp method". what are the pro's and cons of this method and is an airlock a better option?
Also
2) Temperature - Just how important is it too brew at a set temprature, in my home this doesn't sound like its easily done? Will a change in temprature compleatly ruin the beer/wine? how do you control temperature?
Thanks everyone and I look forward to your replies.
