PETER AUSTIN BREWING SYSTEM

01.

Highest quality malt is milled to recipe specifications.

02.

Milled malt (called the “grist”) is mixed with brewing liquor (treated hot water – acidic and salted). This is called the “mash”.

03.

Enzymes turn the starches into sugars – this liquid is called “wort”.

04.

Wort is moved to the kettle where it is boiled and pellet hops are added.

05.

The boiled wort is mixed with a “hop tea” that adds aroma without adding bitterness.

06.

The wort is then cooled – moved to an open topped fermentation vessel.

07.

Our Ringwood yeast is added.

08.

Over 3 days the yeast ferments the wort into beer (eats sugar – spits out booze).

09.

We condition the beer for 4 more days [7 Days total].

10.

The beer is “racked” into a conditioning tank – finings are added to clarify the beer [Day 8].

11.

The beer is filtered through our DE filter and then carbon dioxide is added (carbonation) [Day9].

12.

The beer is put into package – bottle, can, keg.
