Utensils:
- get a 11or more gallon garbage can get a study one and clean it up
REALLY good.
- saccarometer -this is a hydrometer used to measure the amount of
sugar in a solution. a small amount of your beer is drawn into a graduated
cylinder then you put the saccarometer into it. it will flaot at different
levels depending on the amount of sugar in there.on the SG scale 1.000 is
the weight of water and higher #'s indicate more sugar. when brewing beer
we're only concerned with the two right hand 3's. which means that 1.000=0
1.035=35
Ingredients:
- 3 lb of any blue ribbon hopped malt extract

green or brown bottles and keep in the shade for at least 5 days.
