Brewing Basics
To start off brewing in Minecraft is when you can make different types of potions for the player. They can be positive or negative potions. The picture to the left is what a brewing stand looks. You put the water bottles in the three bottom slots and the ingredients on the top slot.
All potions start with a water bottle and nether wart. To get a water bottle fill a glass bottle with water, which you can get from a natural source like a ocean,river,etc., or you can get some from a cauldron that you can craft. You then add a nether wart to make the awkward potion which can make all the potions listed below. If you don't add the nether wart it will make the potion of weakness.

Some Other Information
In case you didn't know, you can add either redstone, glowstone dust, a fermented spider eye, or gunpowder to the potion to give it different effects. Adding redstone to a potion will make it last longer. Glowstone dust will make the potion last shorter, but will make it stronger. If you put a fermented spider eye in a potion it will reverse the potion. Lastly, adding gunpowder to a potion will turn it into a splash potion.
Also a fact about brewing is it takes 20 seconds for each brewing step to finish.
