…
Thoroughly rinse your bottles until they look clean. In a bucket, make a solution using
the cleaning agent, just as you did before brewing. Let the bottles soak in the cleaning
agent for a few minutes to ensure any small contamination is removed.
…
Pour the cleaning agent into a pot large enough to collect the beer. Ensure a two-minute
contact time to make sure the pot is clean. Pour the cleaning agent back into the bucket
as you will need it again later.
…
Dissolve 25 grams of sugar in half a cup of hot water. Pour this into the cleaned pot.
…
It is now time to transfer your brew to the pot. We take this step to make sure the sedi-
ment at the bottom of your fermentation bottle does not end up in your bottles. These
are dead yeast cells and we do not want them in our beer. When transferring the brew,
make sure not to let the racking cane go too low into the carboy and suck up dead yeast.
…
Submerge the racking cane together with the tube from the box in the cleaning solu-
tion.
…
Place the tube over the short end of the racking cane. Fill the tube with cleaning agent
and pinch it closed. Remove the stopper from the fermentation bottle and put it in the
fermentation bottle to just above the sediment. Make sure your fermentation bottle is
always at a point higher than the pot to which you are transferring the beer. The siphon
will automatically begin to flow as soon as you release the tube. Allow the residual
cleaning agent to drain away. When the beer begins to flow, catch it in the pot contain-
ing your sugar solution. Towards the end keep the fermentation bottle tilted, but be
careful to make sure that as little sediment as possible is transferred.
…
It is now time to bottle your beer. Do this using the racking cane in the same way as
before. Fill bottles to 4 cm below the rim. Scan the QR code to watch the tutorial video
'How to syphon' on the product page.
…
Close the bottles with their tops or seal with a crown cap using the bottle capper. Make
sure you always clean the caps using the cleaning product.
…
Leave the bottles to rest in a cool, dry place for at least two to four weeks. This will give
the beer extra time to mature and to form CO
…
Put the bottles in the fridge the night before you want to enjoy your beer.

Enjoy it alone or with friends.
