The Beer Recipe
The malt extract or water and grain mixture then needs to be boiled for around an hour to an hour and a half, during which time the hops are added to give the bitterness and unique aroma to the beer. After cooling, yeast is added and the liquid is stored and allowed to ferment for around 21 days for ale and 35 days for lager. Do your little beer analysis and if a speciality beer is desired then flavours are added at the end of the home brewing process, and the beer is complete.Home brewing beer allows you to create any style of beer that you want, and you can add things to or modify the ingredients to create the perfect beer for you. The best way to brew your own beer, especially for those new to the concept, is to invest in a home brewing kit as it will contain everything you need.
