* '''A Sterilizing solution''' - Household bleach can be used, but it must be thoroughly rinsed to prevent contamination. Your brew store may also have other alternatives such as iodophor and starsan that also sterilize well.
You can purchase many of these items at your local brew stores or online. Some websites such as [http://www.makebeer.net Makebeer.net] offer great starter kits. As you get more experienced you can expand on these kits or purchase more experienced kits from other sites.
