WW American Pale Ale 50 Litre Kit

American Pale Ale Complete Kit.

A flavourful American Pale Ale. Our APA has an amber appearance with a prominent bitterness. Due to ale and crystal malts used, it has a steady malt flavour with a touch of bready and toasty notes. This kit includes 2x 1.7kg cans of American Pale Ale, 1x 3kg bag of Dry Malt Extract and 2x 11.5g packs of Fermentis US-05 ale yeast. Original Gravity of 1.045 (11.25°P), fermented to a Final Gravity of about 1.011 (2.75°P), resulting in 4.5% alcohol by volume, 30 Bitterness Units and 6.5 SRM/13 EBC colour. Ferment at 23°C/73°F.

To elevate the fresh hop aroma of this style, we recommend the brewer make a hop tea of 1-2 oz. (28-56 grams) of any aroma hops in a French coffee press. Add approx. 900ml of boiled water, cooled to 80°C, to the hops. Stir and then steep for 30 minutes. Plunge the solids and add the green, filtered hop tea to the mix of ingredients in your fermenter (before adding the yeast).
