Preparation Steps
1
Heat the water to 158°F (70°C). Add the ground malted barley, maintaining the temperature for 60 minutes to allow the sugars to be extracted from the malt.
2
Strain the malt. Bring the resulting liquid (wort) to a boil. Add the hops at the beginning of the boil to impart bitterness to the beer.
3
Boil the wort for 60 minutes, then quickly cool it to room temperature using a sterile wort chiller.
4
Transfer the cooled wort to a fermentation vessel and add the brewer's yeast. Seal the vessel with an airlock to allow gases produced during fermentation to escape.
5
Allow the beer to ferment at room temperature for 1-2 weeks, or until fermentation is complete.
6
At the end of fermentation, add the sugar for bottle conditioning to carbonate the beer. Bottle in sterilized bottles and seal tightly.
7
Let the bottled beer condition for another 1-2 weeks to fully carbonate. Chill before serving.
