- Clean and sanitise fermenter, spoon, cup and jug.
- Soften the malt can in hot water for about 5 minutes.
- Pour 2 litres of boiling water into your 5L jug. Open the can and pour the contents into the jug.
- Mix the concentrated wort and water well, then pour into your fermenter. Top up with cold quality brewing water to 20L for approx. 5.0% ABV. Vigourously stir the wort with a large spoon to oxygenate it. Ensure the wort temperature is 12℃-18℃. Sprinkle the yeast into the wort.
- Seal the fermenter lid and insert airlock. Ideally ferment at 12℃-18℃ 10 - 14 days.
- Dry hop with all the hops on day 5.
- After 10-14 days, check the gravity. If the SG remains steady for three days, fermentation is complete. If in doubt, leave a few more days for better results. Keg or bottle your brew.
