Ale Brewing Process
Beer brewing can be as complex or simple as you wish to make it. There
are beer brewing kits available for purchase that simplify brewing--and
then there is the art of brewing from scratch. Before beginning the brewing process, you must first understand the four
key ingredients necessary to brew a batch of beer: water, fermentable
sugar, hops, and yeast. Each ingredient is integral to the recipe and
must be cooked in a certain way to yield a successful batch of brew.
Understanding their basic qualities and how each ingredient is meant to
react with the others is an important aspect of beer brewing.Water is the primary ingredient in beer, so it is very important the
water tastes good. If the tap water at your house tastes good to you,
then it is fine to use for beer brewing. If you don't like the way your
tap water tastes, then you can use bottled or distilled water instead.
If you use tap water, boil it first to evaporate the chlorine and other
chemicals that may interfere with the brewing process. Let the water
cool before using.
