Ingredients

Ingredients are listed as a percentage of the full grist, followed by example measures for a small 5 litre brew. Hops and additives for the boil are then listed, with the percentage values this time calculated against the total grist weight. Again example values are given for a small 5 litre brew.

Beer volume

These measures should produce approximately 5.0 litres (8.8 pints) of beer using about 4.3 litres of mash water and about 3.0 litres of sparge water.

Note

This mix makes three beers, Ringadingding, Ringadingdong and Ringadingdang. Each requires 4 litres of water. Ignore the water volumes listed in the Beer Volume heading above, and use four litres three times over for each wort. For Ringadingding use the proportion of hops as listed in the table for the boil. For Ringadingdong use 9g and 2g of hops in the boil, and for Ringadingdang use 6g and 2g plus 65g of sugar. Ringadingding will result in a strong flavoursome beer, Ringadingdong ought to be more traditional and Ringadingdang a weaker session beer. Three for the price of one :-)
