How to Make Good Homebrew Beer by TARDIS First open a Homebrew and pour it in a glass..... Stuff needed to continue: 1 20 Qt. stock pot Water 1 7.6 Gallon Food-Grade plastic bucket with tight fitting lid and airlock Heat (preferably a stovetop) 1 long charasamatic wooden spoon A cool place to put your beer while it's fermenting 2 cases of empty RETURNABLE pints(16oz.) Lot-O-bottle caps and a capper 1 Hydrometer 1 Thermometer A complete dislike of commercial piss-water beer! Now on to the recipe........ 1st step, Drink the Homebrew you just poured! 2nd step, Bring 1.5 Gallons of cold H2O to boil and add: 6 Lbs. of Muntons and Fisons Amber Dry Malt Stir it so it dosen't stick to the bottem Add 1oz. of either Northern Brewers Hops(pellets) or 1 oz. of Galena Hops(pellets) Bring it back to boil and keep it boiling for 45 min. Boiling not simmering 5 min. before the time is up add 1/2 oz. Fuggles Hops(pellets) Pour this boiling concoction into your STERILIZED fermenter along with enough H2O to make 5 Gallons. Put the Thermometer and the Hydrometer in the bucket too! When the temp. is around 70DEGF add either 7 grams Red Star Ale yeast or 14 grams Whitbread Ale yeast. Pitch the yeast by sprinkling it on top, letting it sit for 5 min. then stirring it in Put the lid on with the airlock and leave it alone for 7 days Again use the Hydrometer to check the Specific Gravity on the 7th day and again on the 8th day......If the reading are the same Bottle it! To Bottle: Drink another Homebrew then: STERILIZE your bottles then siphon the beer in to another bucket or your stock pot add 3/4 CUP corn sugar(Make a simple syrup with 2cups H2O and the 3/4cup corn sugar) syphon into your bottles. Cap them! OK,so your newbrew is in the bottle and now you ask the all-important question..................When the HELL can I drink it????????? Wait about 2 weeks. The longer you leave it in the bottle the better it will become! My stoudt, was 10 months old when I opened it and it was World-Class!!! Next recipe will be for a stoudt similar to Guiness..... stay tuned TARDIS Origins: Vuarnet International [TSAN] HST/V32bis xxx.xxx.xxxx JoY DIvIsIoN HST/v.32bis xxx.xxx.xxxx [Goo]
