Ready Brew, the time saver.

Sunday, June 5th, 2005

O.K. you may have read the post where I was making Growler Porter beer. Did the whole steeping the grains thing and the brewing process took some time. That beer is wonderful! If you want to taste a pint or so, you may want to quickly make your way to my door.

Now take a look at this. Today I mixed up some

of Paddockwood’s fresh Ready Brew Malted Oat Stout
After I got up this morning I smacked the yeast package and left it to rise. A quick spray with the
Star San sanitizer
in a spray bottle and a hot water rinse, and the equipment was good to go.

Starting Time

See the yeast, how big it's grown, ...

The yeast grew this much in about 4 or 5 hours

Paddockwook Readybrew Malted Oatmeal Stout

Close up of the label on the box of Paddockwook Ready brew Malted Oatmeal Stout.

Inside the box .....

The inside of the box of fresh wort.

Racking into the big pail.

Moving the wort from the inside of the box to the big pail. I use a chair on top of the table to aid the syphon.

The tricky part.

Add the yeast.

Finished
All done! You can do this a lot faster if you do not stop to snack, watch T.V. and take photo’s of each step.
