Notes: Dough in at 115°F (46°C) and hold 15 minutes. Then raise the temperature to 154°F (68°C) and mash for 60 minutes, targeting a mash pH of 5.58. Lauter, sparge, and boil for 60 minutes, adding hops at the indicated times.

Chill wort to 56°F (13°C) and ferment at that temperature for 17 days. Allow the fermenter to naturally rise to room temperature for a 2-day diacetyl rest. Do not cold crash.

Notes: 1.064 pre-boil gravity way above...but I will be adding 4 litres of chilled water to the fermentor to bring down the temps quickly. Option if another 2 litres if gravity is too high (dilution calculator suggests 6 litres needed in total).
6 litres added to bring to 20l. 1.051 so used dilution calculator that suggested adding 1 more litre. Wait for it to cool to pitching temps before taking another reading. 21 litres in the fermentor. Only 1 litre from the target and should be on the button with OG....should be...
Pitched yeast ar 20c and after four days pushed temps up to 22c then 23c and then 24c. Keeping the FC here for the next 5 days and take a reading 3 days before expected bottling day.
Yeast was true and yeast cake from previous Dubbel Trubel brew.
Day 11 reading 1.007. Beyond target. Probably due to massive overpitch of yeast.
2 weeks bottle conditioning and there is a very forward medicinal flavour...suspect either tub and yeast from the pitch or Hersbrucker hop...
Shall not be using Endeavor hops ever again and will have to see how Hersbrucker manages as a bittering hop in my next brew...live and learn

Notes: Fermentables will be juice/cider not whole fruit. OG will be completely dependent on the apple juice/cider used. This will make a dry cider with a mild but noticeable apple flavor that is well suited for fruit additions or back sweetening.

Fresh pressed usually comes out close to 1.05 for 5 gallons. Fermentation kicks off again slightly if you use any fruit additions.

Instructions:

Add 1 crushed Campden tablet per gallon of must to kill any wild bacteria (This is only necessary if you're using unpasteurized cider). Leave the cider lightly covered with a towel allow it to vent and wait at least 24 hours for the tablets to take effect.

After 24-48 hours, add the yeast nutrient. This step is crucial as apple cider doesn't have the necessary nutrients for the yeast to thrive. If you skip this step, you run the risk of having a strong sulfur smell and taste in the cider.

Pitch yeast as normal and follow your usual fermenting steps.

Once primary fermentation is complete, add any fruit additions directly to fermenter. You may transfer to a secondary and add the fruit or juice if you'd like but it isn't required. I throw the fruit into the primary.

Allow the cider to sit for at least another two weeks. Ideally the cider will sit for at least a month but this will change depending on the batch.

Taste frequently and bottle/keg when the flavor is to your liking!

Notes: Official NORTHERN BREWER Instructional Document
The perfect pint after a hard day’s work, Gaarden Hoe is
an ode to the historic and refreshing Belgian wit. Classic
wheat is expertly tilled into a traditional pilsner malt bill
and modest, grounded hop profile. Coriander and bitter
orange peel offer slightly tart and citrusy undertones to
quench even the most parched palate.

These simple instructions are basic brewing procedures
for this Northern Brewer extract beer kit; please refer
to your starter kit instructions for specific instructions
on use of equipment and common procedures such as
siphoning, sanitizing, bottling, etc.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN ...
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
- Homebrewing starter kit for brewing 5 gallon batches
- Boiling kettle of at least 3.5 gallons capacity
- A 5 gallon glass carboy, with bung and airlock, to use as a
secondary fermenter
- Approximately two cases of either 12 oz or 22 oz pry-off
style beer bottles
UNPACK THE KIT
- Refrigerate the yeast upon arrival
- Locate the Kit Inventory (above) – this is the recipe for your
beer, so keep it handy
- Doublecheck the box contents vs. the Kit Inventory
- Contact us immediately if you have any
questions or concerns!
PROCEDURE
A FEW DAYS BEFORE BREWING DAY
1. Remove the liquid Wyeast pack from the refrigerator,
and “smack” as shown on the back of the yeast package.
Leave it in a warm place (70–80° F) to incubate until the
pack begins to inflate. Allow at least 3 hours for inflation;
some packs may take up to several days to show inflation.
Do not brew with inactive yeast — we can replace the
yeast, but not a batch that fails to ferment properly. If
you are using dry yeast, no action is needed.
ON BREWING DAY
2. Collect and heat 2.5 gallons of water.
3. Bring to a boil and add 4 lbs Wheat DME. Remove the
kettle from the burner and stir in the Wheat DME.
4. Return wort to boil. The mixture is now called “wort”,
the brewer’s term for unfermented beer.
- Add 1 oz Saaz hops, and boil for 60 minutes.
- Add 2 lbs Pilsen DME and 1 oz Saaz 15 minutes before the
end of the boil.
- Add 1 oz Coriander and 1 oz Bitter Orange Peel 5 minutes
before the end of the boil. You may crush the seeds before
adding if you wish.
5. Cool the wort. When the 60-minute boil is finished,
cool the wort to approximately 100° F as rapidly as
possible. Use a wort chiller, or put the kettle in an ice
bath in your sink.
6. Sanitize fermenting equipment and yeast pack. While
the wort cools, sanitize the fermenting equipment –
fermenter, lid or stopper, fermentation lock, funnel, etc –
along with the yeast pack and a pair of scissors.
7. Fill primary fermenter with 2 gallons of cold water,
then pour in the cooled wort. Leave any thick sludge in
the bottom of the kettle.
8. Add more cold water as needed to bring the
volume to 5 gallons.
9. Aerate the wort. Seal the fermenter and rock back
and forth to splash for a few minutes, or use an aeration
system and diffusion stone.
10. OPTIONAL: if you have our Mad Brewer Upgrade or
Gravity Testing kits, measure specific gravity of the wort
with a hydrometer and record.
11. Add yeast once the temperature of the wort is 78°F or
lower (not warm to the touch). Use the sanitized scissors
to cut off a corner of the yeast pack, and carefully pour
the yeast into the primary fermenter.
12. Seal the fermenter. Add approximately 1 tablespoon of
water to the sanitized fermentation lock. Insert the lock
into rubber stopper or lid, and seal the fermenter.
13. Move the fermenter to a warm, dark, quiet spot until
fermentation begins.
GAARDEN HOE
BEYOND BREWING DAY, WEEKS 1–2
14. Active fermentation begins. Within approximately
48 hours of Brewing Day, active fermentation will
begin – there will be a cap of foam on the surface of
the beer, and you may see bubbles come through the
fermentation lock.
15. Active fermentation ends. Approximately 1–2 weeks
after brewing day, active fermentation will end: the cap
of foam falls back into the new beer, bubbling in the
fermentation lock slows down or stops.
16. Transfer beer to secondary fermenter. Sanitize
siphoning equipment and an airlock and carboy bung or
stopper. Siphon the beer from the primary fermenter into
the secondary.
BEYOND BREWING DAY—
SECONDARY FERMENTATION
17. Secondary fermentation. Allow the beer to condition in
the secondary fermenter for 2 weeks before proceeding
with the next step. Timing now is somewhat flexible.
BOTTLING DAY—ABOUT 4 WEEKS
AFTER BREWING DAY
18. Sanitize siphoning and bottling equipment.
19. Mix a priming solution (a measured amount of sugar
dissolved in water to carbonate the bottled beer) of 2/3
cup priming sugar in 16 oz water. Bring the solution to a
boil and pour into the bottling bucket.
20. Siphon beer into bottling bucket and mix with priming
solution. Stir gently to mix—don’t splash.
21. Fill and cap bottles.
1–2 WEEKS AFTER BOTTLING DAY
22. Condition bottles at room temperature for 1–2 weeks.
After this point, the bottles can be stored cool or cold.
23. Serving. Pour into a clean glass, being careful to leave
the layer of sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Cheers!
