I have used Brewers CHoice Pale ALe kits before. I now what to look at some other recipes.
I have 3 kg of Breiss sorghum extract to make a 22 litre wort.
Questions:
1. The Brewers CHoice recipe for Pale ALe has no sugar of any kind added in the boiling process, only a small amount at bottling. IN the Honey ale kit, about half a kilo of honey is added. Some recipes I am now lookng at add sugar of some kind when making wort. SO why is no sugar added in the Brewers Choice Pale ale recipe? Does the sorghum extract supplied in the kit have sugar in it already? HOw much sugar and what kind of sugar should I add to the Briess sorghum extract when making the wort?
2. The Brewers Choice recipe kit supplies a yeast nutrient to use... I have been told beer brewers don't usually use yeast nutrient. Is it necessary? If so, why, and what brand is gluten free?
3 Also what is process of chilling to make a clearer beer and how does it work?
Thanks
