star sanSanitizer and Spray Bottle

Good sanitation practices are absolutely fundamental to good beer making. Five Star San is the premier sanitizer you will need to make your Imperial Stout Beer beer kit. A great practice for extra protection is to have a spray bottle filled with sanitizing solution so you can re-sanitize everything that touches or goes near your Imperial Stout. Sanitation is much more difficult with beer than wine because beer has a higher pH. Wine's high acidity makes bacterial infection less likely but with beer, one small mishap can cost you your batch.

When your Imperial Stout is done, you will need bottles. This standard 12 ounce bottle is a good choice. Bottles do not come with caps.

The one gallon jug pictured here is the standard size for your Imperial Stout one gallon kit. 

SiphonsSiphons

Auto-siphons are a great luxury item to have in your brew equipment. Once you have one you will never go without it again. Don't forget to use a heavy duty sanitizer to clean it since you don't want to replace it as often as hoses. A good sanitizer for that job is Five Star San.

 Many people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often or even using as single use items is highly recommended with beer making. Hoses are very hard to clean and beer is very susceptible to bacterial infection. You do not want to risk losing your Imperial Stout over a few feet of unsanitary hose.

Pouring your Imperial Stout wort into a jug can be tricky. Use a big funnel made just for the job. They even have different mesh screens to remove particles. 

AirlocksAirlocks

It is recommended to replace airlocks often. Because they never physically touch your Imperial Stout, the sanitation risk is too often overlooked. Bacteria can spread without physical contact in a closed environment and plastic stubbornly harbors bacteria.

Bungs and stoppers should also be periodically replaced. They can dry out and harbor bacteria.

Keeping your secondary fermenters clean before and after use is key to avoid bacterial infection in your Imperial Stout. This brush is a great tool to get into those nooks and crannies.

When you bottle your Imperial Stout, you will need to cap your bottles. This capper is inexpensive, easy to use and does not require attaching to a counter. It has a magnet to hold the cap in place.
