I think I brew some pretty good beer (not that I'm biased or anything ;-) I've been doing it for over 15 years off and on. When I started I didn't have much money to spend so the basic bucket kit was what I used. Gradually my beer got better and I also upgraded my equipment to carboys, wort chiller, kegging equipment, etc. Its been an evolution of skill (practice), ingredients and equipment. Which is more important? Who knows? There is one thing I do know. Don't think for one minute that you need to spend big bucks to get started. The equipment isn't going to make or break your beer. In the beginning its usually beginners mistakes that cause the problems. So what! You can't get better if you don't make mistakes. There's lotsa people out there will to help you. Many times that is the single most important part of a new brewers repertoire, an experienced helper :-) Good topic to ponder.
