My beer and ciders are both pretty good, I wouldn't send them back in a pub.
And they cost me 40p a pint ish.

Do you have to save some of each batch
to seed the next batch? Or am I thinking about those weird cake things? It's definitely something to do with yeast...

You can do that with yeast, but I tend to just use new yeast sachets because they're only 20p-£1

So how do you get a consistent taste with each batch?

Well first, I don't, I tend to try different beers out all the time.
but second, the brewing yeast packets are labeled with the strains on, so you just make a note of the strain you used when you're making something, and then reuse it.

Fair enough.
You know, I made some skittles vodka last year for xmas. It's still in the fridge now. I expect it tastes like paint stripper.
