I'd love to try a home brewed beer or mead. It sounds good. :P

It's really easy; I'd suggest trying it. The wine I make ferments in a 5 gallon bucket, the ingredients cost about $15 for three gallons (fruit, sugar, yeast). You make it and mix it once a day for a week abouts and then just let it sit! Pretty good stuff when it's done.

How long till it's done?
-
5 weeks.

Is it better if you let it ferment longer?
-
Not really. Yeast quite literally shit themselves to death. They digest sugars into alcohol. Once the concentration of alcohol gets high enough, typically 5-15% depending on the type of yeast, they die off. If you let it sit [i]too[/i] long, it can turn into vinegar or make other less desirable products.
