1 30 litre fermenter
1 Large mixing spoon
1 5 litre jug
1 Cup
- 1.5 kg Brick Road Hopped Dark Malt
- 1.5 kg Brick Road Dark Malt
- 1-2 pkt Ferments US-05 yeast
Clean and sanitise fermenter, spoon, cup and jug.
Soften the malt cans in hot water for about 5 minutes.
Pour 2 litres of boiling water into your 5L jug. Open the cans 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 23L for approx. 4.3% ABV. Vigourously stir the wort with a large spoon to oxygenate it. Ensure the wort temperature is 16-25 degrees Celcius. Gently pour in the cup of yeast slurry and gently stir into the oxygenated wort.
Seal the fermenter lid and insert airlock. Ideally ferment at 18-24 degrees Celcius for 10 - 14 days.
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.
