How to brew it

Mix the extract with 3.5 litres of boiling water and the 1kg of fermentables, top up with cold water to 23 litres, sprinkle on the yeast and ferment at 18-21°C. Fermentation usually takes 4-6 days. Prime, keep warm for 2 days, then condition somewhere cool for 14 days. Full steps: Muntons Connoisseurs instructions.

For drinkers who prefer a mellow, malty brown ale to a hoppy bitter. Using spraymalt instead of sugar gives it extra body. See the rest of the Muntons Connoisseurs range.
