Yes. The €999 covers the complete CRAFT Gen 3 system — base station, mash tun, cleaning container and the Smart Keg — plus three premium recipe kits, the starter items (CO₂, cleaning solution, hop bags) and six months of Legend membership. Shipping is free.

You can brew your first batch the day it arrives without ordering anything else.

Recipe kits, when you want another batch — from €20 for 6 litres. Over time you'll also replace consumables like CO₂ and cleaning solution, the way you would coffee beans or dishwasher tablets.

That's the entire ongoing cost. No mandatory subscription, no proprietary cartridge, no service plan.

Two things: a WiFi connection and a water supply. That's it.

WiFi — MiniBrew connects to your home network to run the brewing software, monitor fermentation in real time and keep your machine updated. A standard home WiFi connection or hotspot works perfectly.

Water — The machine connects to a water supply the same way a washing machine does. This during rinsing ( 30 min) and cooling (30 min) A standard threaded kitchen or utility tap works. An outdoor tap with a standard connector works too. No plumbing knowledge needed.

Set up takes minutes. Your first brew can start the same day.

It's the reason the machine exists. The browser walks you through every step with short video clips, and the machine controls temperature, timing and fermentation itself. Your first batch will surprise you.

And when you outgrow guided mode, Legend membership lets you build recipes from scratch — the same machine grows with you instead of being replaced.

Brewed a few times? You'll immediately feel the difference. No more guessing, no more inconsistent results. MiniBrew gives you repeatable quality every single time — so you can focus on exploring new styles instead of troubleshooting problems.

Know a lot about brewing? Good. Because our portal gives you full control — create your own recipes from scratch, adjust fermentation temperatures, experiment with hops and malts, and share your creations with a community of thousands of brewers worldwide.

Whatever your level, MiniBrew grows with you. Start with a recipe kit, build your confidence, and brew exactly what you want — on your terms.

Prep is 5–10 minutes. Brew day runs about 4 hours, unattended. Fermentation is 3–30 days depending on the recipe — a hoppy IPA can be ready in under two weeks, a Belgian tripel takes three.

Then the Smart Keg holds it pressurised and carbonated for up to three months, so you drink it at its best rather than racing through it.

Send it back within 60 days for a full refund, and we'll arrange collection. Use the kits, pull the CO₂, pour it for friends — we'd rather you find out properly than keep a machine you're unsure about.

No — beer, cider, kombucha and hard seltzer, all on the same machine. You switch between them with nothing more than a different recipe kit. No extra equipment, no extra counter space.

From a specialist maltster in your region, blended to order rather than pre-packed and stored.

In the UK and Ireland that's The Malt Miller. Across the EU, Braumischung.de. In Switzerland, Brau- und Rauchshop, who supply the country's commercial breweries. All three ship domestically — no border, no customs charge, no delay.

Two consequences. Fresher grain and hops than any warehoused kit — and we publish the full grain bill and hop details on every kit, which no "just add water" competitor will do, because their ingredients wouldn't survive the scrutiny.

It also means your consumable supply doesn't hang on one parcel crossing one border.

Kits are blended and dispatched within 2–4 working days. In practice you never wait for one: a fermentation runs 3–30 days, so if you order your next kit on brew day it arrives long before the keg runs dry.

Yes, you can skip the the kits and get your own fresh ingredients for a local store.

The base station runs an automatic cleaning programme after every brew and a rinse cycle before the next one — that part genuinely happens without you. Your job is to wipe down spillages with a damp cloth.

The Smart Keg needs an overnight soak after each batch, and it disassembles in seconds for a rinse. The mash tun is hand wash only — some dishwashers run hot enough to damage it. All yellow components are dishwasher safe.

We'd rather tell you this now than have you discover it in week two.

Two years as standard.Register your machine within 60 day sat pro.minibrew.io and it extends to five years — the same window as your return period, so do both at once.

Yes — and when you do, you become part of something bigger.

Create your recipe in the MiniBrew portal, brew it, perfect it — then choose what to do with it. Keep it private in your personal Brewery Portal, or publish it to the community for 20,000+ brewers worldwide to discover, clone and brew themselves.

Some of the most brewed recipes in the MiniBrew community started as someone's kitchen experiment. Yours could be next.

No — and that's deliberate. MiniBrew runs in any browser on any device, so there's nothing to install, nothing to update, and nothing that stops working when your phone's OS changes. It connects over 2.4 GHz WiFi and notifies you at every milestone.

Yes. Klarna lets you pay later — up to 90 days — and other local payment methods are available at checkout, including iDEAL, Bancontact, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
