1/I got the can of lager malt,warmed it up and added it to the brewing/fermentation bin,rinsed out the empty can with boiling hot water and poured that into the fermentation bin.
2/ Boiled 8 litres of water in kettle and added to bin,then added 700 grams of normal sugar and mixed in,then the honey was added,i use cheap clear honey and added 400 grams,mixed it all together.
3/ Next i topped up the fermentation bin with water to the 38 pint mark(i know it says to 40 pints but i wanted a stronger lager),mixed it again then added the yeast,checked temperature was around the 21c temperature(16 to 21 is fine),left for a week and half to ferment.
4 / After fermentation was finished the lager was bottled up and with half i added to my new pressure barrel,to carbonate its about half a teaspoon of sugar per pint.
Now all i waiting for is for the next 2 weeks to hurry up lol while it settles and carbonates properly.
Btw i didnt use a c02 injector for the pressure barrel as its on order.11804
