I love the "Prepare in just one hour." ... :thumb:

... as with me it should carry on "... and mop up in two!" :doh:

Hope it goes well.

Be interested to hear how this comes out as I was looking at/considering one of these the other day. It strikes me that it may be the same as Mangrove Jacks Craft IPA as the description on the pouch is word for word and has extremely similar packaging style ... but who knows!

I would let SG bottom out, let the beer start to clear, then add at least a couple of days before you add the hops. That is very likely to be longer than 7 days. I would leave hops in for about six days the last two in the cold. You should then get clearer beer going in your bottles and you will lose less of the hop volatile oils which you are trying to put into the beer via the dry hop. :thumb:

Be worthwhile getting a kit from there and adding same ingredients to see what happens

...should have called it 3W....when the outlaw comes round show her the beer you made from her present and that 3W stands for "the three lots of willamette hops " in the brew.....but you can have a private joke because it really means....Wicked Witch of the West!

Im sure theres a thread somewhere which confirms the range make your own kits are the same rebranded as hambledon bard better brew kits ?

Id be interested to know if it is the same as the mangrove jacks craft ipa as i just purchased one from HBC it is a 2.2kg pouch with yeast no hops for dry hopping.
