"Brupaks kits have the edge over most if not all kits on the market, not only do they have great recipes, great yeast and use the best concentrated malt available they also supply a measured quantity of hops to restore the hop flavor and aroma in a handy teabag form." - Homebrew Forum
These beer kits are produced with one thing in mind - QUALITY with the minimum of effort!
These are more than just beer kits they are CONCENTRATED BREWERS WORTS.
Production follows traditional brewhouse procedures using only the finest quality 2-row malting barley and the choicest English hops.
The grist (crushed malt) is 'mashed' with water at 65°C for about one hour to convert the starches into sugar. The resultant liquid (wort) is strained off into a boiling vessel where hops are added for bitterness.
After boiling, extra hops are added for flavour and aroma.
In a commercial brewery the wort would be cooled rapidly to around 20°C, then transferred to a fermentation vessel where it is transformed into beer.
As these worts are to be fermented at home, they first need to be reduced to a convenient size for the home beermaker to carry.
To achieve this, the excess liquid is evaporated under vacuum, at low temperatures to preserve the delicate flavours, then pasteurised and canned.
To continue the brewing process at home, all that is necessary is to dilute the concentrated wort back to its original density and ferment!
Extra hops are included to restore aroma lost during production.
Included in the box are some advanced instructions for those who like to experiment.
Subtle flavour differences can be achieved by adopting a few advanced techniques e.g. bitterness adjustment, sweetness, colour etc.
So - 3kg of quality hopped malt extract with a bag of hop pellets which can be used simply and cleanly to enhance the hop character of the beer.
These are sugar inclusive beer kits made from the finest malt extracts, blended to produce authentic styles reflective of the names that they bear.
