Review:
ibrew StoutThe ibrew kits are a good is place to start for a beginner who wants a very simple process. The brew duration is fast as well; they are drinkable in 21 days. The ibrew stout is a traditional porter style stout. Taste-wise there’s liquorice flavour followed by coffee and toast. Nice and silky in the mouth.

I would recommend priming your dispenser with this kit. You might also like to try injecting N2O rather than or as well as CO2 carbonation.
