Autumn is nearly gone. Winter is coming. Your torn between brewing and enjoying your dark ales and supping on one last fresh IPA! Might as well use up all those Bits & Bobs of fresh piney citrus aromatic hops in the freezer and brew up a Fall Over – IPA – BeerCo All Grain Recipe Kit. You know this one will not hang around long in the kegerator but your mates will and they will make sure you drain it fast enough to fill it again with another of your favourite beers. Well what are you waiting for? Time to Fall Over one last time!

- 10g or 2 tsp of Calcium Sulphate (Gypsum)

- Fill clean Kettle with 21 litres of water and pre-boil your water to precipitate out chlorides and chloramines. Add Mash Salts – 10g or 2 tsp of Calcium Sulphate (Gypsum) and 5g or 1 tsp of Calcium Carbonate
- Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 3 Litres of water to 1 Kg of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a mash temperature of 67 °C (152 °F).
- Hold the mash at 67 °C ( 152 °F ) until enzymatic conversion is complete for around 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 76 °C (168 °F). Mash out for 10 minutes.
- Fly sparge slowly with 12 Litres of 76 °C (168 °F ) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 25 L (6.5 gallons).
