Hi all, my first attempt at a cerveza kit, with some tweaks, any tips and comments appreciated.
Steep 15g sterling hops (in muslin bag) in 100ml water
500g dextrose/brewing sugar
Box Brew enhancer 2
250 Light malt extract
Add all to fv with boiling water
Top up with.cold to 21litres
Use saflager W34 yeast
Leave in shed in temp range of 13-6 ish to ferment for 3 weeks
Add finings 2 days from end?
Bottle directly into 500mls
Leave in same shed (note changing uk weather) to condition for a month.
Do you think this would work? Should I stick with kit yeast and ferment indoors instead either at 18, or 20-22? I've never used finings (will be Wilkos). Any help appreciated!
Thanks.
