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.
A good summer brew for anyone who wants an easy-drinking, pale lager. Lager fans can swap in Saflager W-34/70 for an even cleaner finish if they can ferment cool. See the rest of the Muntons Connoisseurs range.
