Instructions for making St Peter's Ruby Red Ale

1. Clean and sterilise all beer making equipment. Stand cans in hot water for 5 minutes. Pour can contents into the sterilised fermenter.


2. Add 3.5 litres (6 pints) of boiling water. Top up with cold to 23 litres (40 pints). Mix thoroughly to ensure all contents are fully dissolved.


3. Add the hop sachet, then the yeast, cover the fermenter. Leave to stand for 4-6 days in a warm place.


4. Transfer the beer into bottles or a pressure barrel with a little sugar (half a teaspoon per pint). Stand in a warm place for 2 days, allow to clear for 14 days.
