Title: decent device, bad mixes
Product review: I have had the Beer Machine for a few weeks. I really like the clever design: A multitude of functions in a very compact format. If you assemble it carefully according to the instructions, you can avoid leaks according to my experience. The capacity is suitable for a novice, because you may have to make a few batches before learning how to make YOUR beer, and discarding a smaller volume is always less depressing. But do not waste your money on their beer mixes, if taste means anything to you: By using theis concoctions you get some alcoholic liquid that can hardly be called beer. I would recommend that you don't even open the bag that comes with the device. Rather, to avoid the inevitable frustration, buy, right at the beginning, a higher-end beer mix from some respected, well-known manufacturer. In that case there is some chance that, after a couple of weeks, you can tap yourself approvingly on the back.
