Having not received my mail order supplies this weekend I was resigned to not brewing this weekend, hoever, in between ferrying my in-laws and OH around, I found myself in lakeland staring at the £14.99 can of brewmaker IPA, so despite recently having vowed not to buy from Lakeland again (I paid ouch for 50 bottle caps) I relented and bought the IPA. Turns out £14.99 was more reasonable than their bottle caps were!
And so
Brew no .7 was born!
1.8kg brewmaker ipa
1kg brewing sugar
500g dark candi sugar
500g muntons dme - medium
30g juniper berries at 15 mins
100g citra - 20g at 15 mins 80g to be dry hopped
1 litre boiled chase spring water to rinse can
3 litres chase spring water for additional wort
Added candi sugar, brewing sugar and muntons DME to 3 litre chase spring water. Brought to the boil for 15 mins and added 20g Citra pellets and 30g partially crushed juniper berries. During this time had loosened brewmaker ipa in a pan of hot water with 1 litre boiled water to rinse can.
poured brewmaker ipa in FV with 1 litre water then added additional wort through sieve
topped up with chase spring water (some bottles from freezer) to 21.5 litres.
fermentis s-04 yeast
brewed to 21.5 litres.

will add 80G citra in 9 or 10 days and bottle on day 14/15 :)
