ArtisanAle Fresh Wort Kit - West Coast I.P.A.

These wort kits are made on a Speidel 500L Braumeister Brewery from grain and brewed true to style. They are especially suited to time poor brewers or those who simply want an excellent beer with a minimum of effort.

 

NOTE: Supplied in a 16.5 litre HDPE cube. these kits are generally designed to add 3 litres of water immediately prior to fermentation to achieve the ideal balance. You may if you wish, not add the extra water for a richer, higher gravity version.

 

Yeast not included.

 

 

DESCRIPTION

A pale ale brewed in the true American style, malty and aggressively hopped with Cascade, Centennial and Columbus with assertive bitterness but good balance making it a flavoursome yet easy drinking style.

This is a beer that is worth experimenting with in terms of Dry Hopping. It is not essential but if you’d like to experiment you could try 40g to 80 grams of any classic IPA Hop. Citra, Galaxy, Mosaic and Simcoe in the fermenter 3 days before packaging.

Matt (from Grain and Grape) fermented one and used the following dry hops in the fermenter 3 days before packaging:
40g Chinook

80g Mosaic

80g Cascade

Matt tells us that most guys that tasted it thought it was awesome and quite a few guys asked for the recipe after having a sample.

Fresh Wort Kits Frequently Asked Questions

Below you will find the questions we get asked the most regarding our Fresh Wort Kits (FWK).
Please click on one of the questions below to see the answer.

What are fresh wort kits?

Fresh wort kits are convenient and time-saving options for homebrewers. They consist of pre-made, ready-to-use wort (unfermented beer) that has been professionally brewed and then packaged for homebrewing.

How do fresh wort kits work?

Fresh wort kits eliminate the need for the homebrewer to go through the entire brewing process, including mashing and boiling. Instead, the kits provide a pre-boiled and cooled wort that can be transferred directly into a fermenter, where yeast is added to begin fermentation.

What are the benefits of using fresh wort kits?

Fresh wort kits offer several advantages, including:
  • Time-saving: With pre-made wort, you can skip several hours of brewing and focus on fermentation and other aspects of brewing.
  • Consistency: Professional brewing ensures a high-quality and consistent wort base for your beer.
  • Convenience: Fresh wort kits provide a convenient solution for both beginners and experienced homebrewers who want to streamline their brewing process.

Can I customize the beer when using a fresh wort kit?

Absolutely! While the wort itself is pre-made, you have the flexibility to customize the beer to your liking. You can experiment with different yeast strains, hop additions, and even adjuncts to create unique flavors and styles.

Are fresh wort kits suitable for all levels of homebrewers?

Fresh wort kits are suitable for brewers of all levels, from beginners to experienced enthusiasts. They offer a convenient option for beginners looking to dive into homebrewing without the complexities of the entire brewing process. Experienced brewers can also benefit from the time-saving aspect and use fresh wort kits as a base to experiment and build upon.
