"These instructions are designed for the first time brewer:
There are two basic kinds of beer: ales and lagers. Ales can be brewed in a relatively short period of time at room temperature. Lagers require longer times (a month or more) and cold temperatures. Brewing a beer is a combination of simple processes: 1-The mixing the ingredients and bringing the solution (wort) to a boil; 2-The cooling of the wort to the fermentation temperature; 3- The wort is transferred to the fermenter and the yeast is added; 4- After the fermentation the beer is siphoned off the yeast sediment and bottled with a little extra sugar to provide the carbonation. |
