How to brew it
- Clean and sanitise your kit - ChemSan is a no-rinse sanitiser.
- Warm the pouch in hot water for 15 minutes, pour the malt into the fermenter and rinse the pouch out.
- Add 3 litres of boiled water and 1kg of brewing sugar, stir to dissolve, then top up to 23 litres with cold water.
- At 20-25°C add the yeast, fit an airlock and leave for 14 days.
- Bottle once your hydrometer reads 1008 or below, priming with a level teaspoon of sugar per 500ml bottle. Keep warm for 5 days, then move somewhere cooler to clear.
Want more aroma? Many brewers add a dry hop of Citra or Centennial pellets once the main fermentation has finished. Made for pale ale and IPA drinkers who like a firm bitterness. See the full Better Brew range.
