I'm going to be putting on my first batch of home brew this weekend. I purchased a can of India Ale from my local dealer.
Reading the instructions it mentions to take the contents of the can and mix the contents with 4 litres of hot water then add Dextrose (1 kg), put it in the mixing container and at cold water upto 23 litres. To me this all makes sense.
A buddy at work, who has done this before, kept mentioning about boil the can contents, but I cannot find anywhere in the instructions any information about boiling...........only "Hot water".
Should I just follow the written instructions, or is boil something that just has to be done and I should do it.
The beer kit is "Morgan's ---- Canadian India Pale Ale"
Please help me settle this!!!
Thanks,
