brew beer

Paddock Wood Brewing Supplies made a EasyBrew Growler Porter kit and this is about my first experiance brewing beer on the stovetop. The link is to the ReadyBrew kit, a 23 litre box of beer ready to pour into the glass carboy and pitch the yeast into. This is the other way of brewing. The Easy Brew instructions are in the bag and here on the website.

Start by breaking the bag of food inside the yeast package.

The yeast I used is a 1275

The package before it grows.

Everything is to be clean so I use this stuff.

Spraying the pot with the sanitizer.

Here is the kit, everything in a bag.

Pour 3 litres of water into a clean pot and steep for 30 minutes at 60 C (140 F).
My batch was 10 F degree’s above on the temperature at the end of the steep, so I trimmed 5 minutes from the steeping time.

Quick rinse of the bag.


In goes the DME or Dried Malt Extract.

The rest of the water was cooling outside since I smaked the yeast.

Poured a few litres of the cold water into the plastic primary fermenter first then in goes the stuff from the stove.
