Brewco Dextrose

BrewCo dextrose is our own-brand brewing sugar, sold in 1kg, 4kg, 6kg and 10kg bags. Dextrose (glucose) ferments cleanly, so it is the usual sugar for beer kits, wine kits and priming bottles.

Larger bags suit regular brewers; the 4kg bag is a handy size for wine kits. See brewing sugars & adjuncts for enhancers and other sugars.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use dextrose instead of table sugar?

Dextrose is a simple sugar that yeast ferments easily and cleanly, which helps avoid off-flavours.

How much do I need for a beer kit?

Most one-can beer kits need 1kg. Check your kit instructions.

Can I use dextrose to prime bottles?

Yes. Add the amount given in your kit instructions to the bottles or the bottling bucket before sealing.
