Bottle Caps typically come with all decent extract kits.

For extract brewing you dont need a very large pot.. If you have a 12 quart pot you are fine.

BTW I think that kit comes with packets of C-Brite. I prefer Starsan much more.

True story. But I think most starter kits come with the cheap stuff. Starsan is an extra that he will buy after his first batch, when he realizes how dumb using C-Brite is.

Which brings me to my next question. What are some good malt extracts to start off with?

Also, I was reading and they said when you are brewing, stay away from using corn sugar, and just add another 3 lb. can of malt extract. This sound right?
