FWK Creative Pale Ale Fresh Wort Beer Kit Suggestions for hops and yeast:
As mentioned, we want to encourage experimentation. Nevertheless, it can be good and reassuring to have some concrete suggestions, which can also inspire you to make your own adjustments. Here are some suggestions:
- Pale Ale: Dry hops with e.g. Nectaron, Mosaic or Eclipse.
- IPA: Drop the water addition so it becomes stronger. Dry hop generously!
- India Pale Lager: Ferment with lager yeast, e.g. Novalager, S-189 or Diamond. Dry hop carefully
FWK Creative also works great for using up leftover hops!
Feel free to read about what aroma each hop contributes, and choose what sounds good together - This is fun, and you are often impressed by new hop combinations!
General recommendation for carbonation:
Add 6g sugar per litre of beer when bottling, and let it carbonate at 20-28°C for about 14 days before storing in a cool place.
