Ok so, my name is Jeff and I've been a Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine for the past year and a half. The beer here is terrible and my girlfriend and I have been wanting to brew some of our own which we did at home before we left.
After many struggles we've accumulated the raw materials, pictured. What we are looking for now is a basic recipe / instructions for malting the barley that we have. And then one for brewing with the raw hops flowers. (We're planning on doing BIAB,) Can anybody give us some tips on getting started?
Also we're pretty new to brewing, we did a few extract brews a year and a half ago and thats it. Plus our setup here is pretty rudimentary, it is going to be hard to regulate temperatures very accurately throughout the whole process. We really need some sort of step by step recipe / instructions that we can follow easily.
Also any simple DIY brew keg and fermenter ideas would be great.
Here are the materials we've got,
Nottinghams ale yeast http://www.danstaryeast.com/products/nottingham-ale-yeast ,
and Muntons Active Brewing yeast https://bellsbeer.com/store/products/Muntons-Active-Brewing-Yeast-%2d-6-grams.html
