1431. Brewing beer (3/5)

In fact, brewing beer is a process, and home brewing beer is still very simple.

Crush the malt, put it in a distilled pot, get the wort, boil it, and add hops for a specific time period.

Then quickly cool it to below 20 degrees Celsius, put the special yeast for beer expanded with wort in advance, and then seal it in a fermentation barrel with one-way water to ferment it away from light.

The fermentation process is very slow and takes at least one week. This means that after the group finished making beer, they had to wait a week before they could drink it.

Looking at the two sealed vats for fermentation, Wang Bo asked unwillingly: "Are we just waiting? Damn it, can't we drink it now?"

"It's not beer now, it's just wort. Even if you drink it, you won't like it." Old Rex shrugged.

Wang Bo sighed and said, "Okay, then I can only wait for a damn week to pass before I taste the taste of the wine."

Fortunately, the winter is nothing, and time passes very quickly. In a week, Sunset Town has not changed much, but the weather has slightly warmer and there are a little more tourists.

However, the number of domestic tourists has not decreased. At this time, the country is gradually becoming hotter. Many people want to escape the summer heat. Although the climate in New Zealand is a bit cold, it has gained the favor of many people because of the best air quality in winter.

In late July, the week ended, and after get off work, Wang Bo and others rushed to the beer workshop.

Now the workshop's storage room is not only two barrels of beer, but more than twenty barrels, which are the results of brewers brewing in these few days.

Wang Bo's eyes turned dark after entering the storage room: "These wine barrels are exactly the same, which one belongs to us?"

The old tour guide smiled and said, "Let me identify it for you."

He walked around these fermentation buckets, patted the two behind the buckets and said, "Boss, these two are ours."

Wang Bo said admiringly: "You have such a great vision, you are worthy of being an experienced old guy."

Old Rex smiled and said, "Although I really want to get your praise, there is actually a time mark on the fermentation barrel, look."

Uncle Bing, Hani and Asulu laughed.

Take out two large buckets, but you can't drink them directly. This is not a finished beer.

The beer brewed in this way has enough carbon dioxide, but the taste is bitter, so you have to add a little white sugar melted with cold boiled water.

Asulu poured a pile of sugar and said, "No wonder some beers taste sweet when I drink them. It turns out that they are added with sugar. Come on, add more."

In this regard, Wang Bo understands that adding these sugars is not to directly improve the taste of the beer, but to allow the yeast to ferment in the beer bottle, produce carbon dioxide, increase the flavor of the beer, and produce more taste changes.

Wang Bo only added sugar water to one barrel, and only about 180 grams of white sugar was enough for twenty liters of beer, which would affect the taste.

After mixing the sugar water and beer evenly mixed, the old tour guide used siphon to introduce the wine into the disinfected glass bottle and seal it.

"The bottleneck should be left with space so that oxygen can activate the yeast to decompose the nutrients in the sugar water added later, and produce more carbon dioxide to dissolve into the beer." He said while operating.

Asulu opened another barrel of beer and did not need to add sugar. The beer that had been fermented for a week can still be drunk. Some people even like to drink beer without sugar.

Because, during the beer brewing process, there was no concept of secondary fermentation in the early production process.

Wang Bo asked Asulu to pick up the wine barrel, and several people found a vacation house in the farm and lived in it. Then Motak sent someone to bring an oven, lit it and put it on the pot, add it to the bottom of the pot to make hot pot.

Looking at the clear sky outside, Lao Wang said regretfully: "It's a pity that it didn't snow that day. Otherwise, it would be very pleasant to eat hot pot and drink homemade beer when it snows."

Asulu said: "It's okay, boss, only hot pot and beer are also very good."

The pot boiled, and they put plates of lamb in and started to rinse it.

The beer mugs that Asulu filled everyone, and then the beer barrel disappeared in an instant.

The beer glass is very large and can hold a liter of beer in one cup. Wang Bo felt heavy in his hand. He raised the wine glass and took a big sip. The smell of the wine was so thick.

Uncle Atulu and Hani are both veterans of beer drinking, not to mention Old Rex. After drinking beer, several people's eyes lit up:

"Sher, why didn't you make your own beer early?"

"Rex, your wine is so good!"

"Thank you, the water is actually great, I knew the water in town is perfect for brewing beer!"

The tender lamb meat rolled in the pot, but several people were not in the mood to eat meat. They all raised their glasses and drank them there. A barrel of twenty liters of beer, six or seven people quickly drank it all.

After drinking this barrel of beer, he was not satisfied at all. Several people looked at each other and Asulu said, "Boss, I'll bring the barrel just now."

Wang Bo shook his head and said, "Forget it, that bucket needs secondary fermentation."

"It's delicious without secondary fermentation." Asulu said.

Everyone nodded. Indeed, the wine was brewed with traditional craftsmanship and still had a strong fragrance.

Wang Bo did not allow it. He had average alcohol tolerance and was already a little dizzy after drinking two liters of beer.

The alcohol content of homebrew beer is much higher than that of ordinary beer. The ones they brew are at least ten degrees, and Lao Wang drinks them faster, which makes them even better.

But I felt dizzy when I drank it. Lao Wang ate two pieces of meat with a dizzy and felt full. He stood up on the table and said, "Goodbye everyone, goodbye, I'm going back to see the child."

Uncle Bing stopped him and said, "Boss, you have drunk too much, why are you going back now?"

Lao Wang pointed outside and said, "My car is there, I'll drive back."

Uncle Bing was amused and crying: "Is the wine a little high? The boss is drunk."

Asulu encouraged him, "You ask him to drive, and then we will catch him."

"Idiot, I'll beat you to death when he wakes up." Hani gave him a blank look.

Uncle Bing finally called Motak to drive Wang Bo back. Old Wang returned to the door of the villa and got out of the car. When the man saw it, he rushed up and then threw him to the ground.

There were traces of snow on the grass. Lao Wang was burning with alcohol and couldn't feel the cold. He hugged the strong man and chewed him.

The strong man was confused by the gnawing, but he knew that kissing meant his love, so he kept wagging his tail there.

Xiao Wang, the fat cats ran over enviously when they saw it, pushing Lao Wang to kiss them. The commander kept shouting: "Ah, kiss me, ah, kiss me."

Lao Wang ignored them and hugged the strong man and continued to chew on them.

The strong man is very proud: The little bitch guys know who is their biological child now?
