How to brew
Dissolve 1.3kg of sugar in 2-3 litres of hot water, add the softened malt, top up to 23 litres at 20-25°C and add the yeast. Ferment for about 10 days at 20-25°C and bottle once the hydrometer reads 1007 or less, with a teaspoon of sugar per 500ml bottle (or 120g in a keg). Leave warm for two weeks, then move somewhere cool to clear.
