STEP-BY-STEP BREWING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1 - CLEANING
  • Brew cleaning products:  One-Step or Straight A
  • One of the most important steps before beginning is to clean ALL equipment.  Including buckets, tubing, kettle, spatula, syphon tube, thermometer.
  • Never EVER use dish soap, even when done brewing.  Your future brews will taste like soap and ruin your equipment.
  • Be sure to air dry after cleaning.
STEP 2 - STEEPING THE GRAINS

20-25 minutes between 152 & 160 degrees.

Do not exceed 170 degrees.

STEP 3 - BOILING THE WATER

Bring water to boil and Slowly add 2oz. hops.  Keep at gentle rolling boil for approximately 60 minutes, constantly stirring bottom and sides of pot.

STEP 4 - SANITIZING
  • Sanitizing Chemicals:  IO-Star or Star San
    ;
  • This procedure must be done every time after the boil.
  • This will disinfect your equipment once you have finished with your brew process.
