4. Bring resulting liquid to the boil for approx 5 minutes. After boiling for 5 minutes, turn the heat off and
add the Williamette Hop Bag to saucepan. Allow to sit for a further 10 minutes.

Notes:
* Use sterilized containers with lids. Do not freeze the water. Use the chilled water to reach a satisfactory temperature. Add yeast
immediately.
** Try to maintain a cool, even temperature in the fermenter, ideally at 18°C. Place your fermenter next to brick walls or on a cement slab, or
wrap it in a towel with one end in water, if the temperature is too high. Use a Brewers Choice Brewing Thermostat and old fridge for
optimum brewing conditions.
