Muntons Flagship Series

Muntons flagship range brings a new experience of craft brewing to your home. Using only the finest ingredients including Muntons high-quality malt extract, premium hop pellets and Fermentis yeast, Muntons Flagship range allows you to brew 35 pints of carefully engineered craft beer at home.

25 homebrewers were asked to taste the initial recipes for this range and provide feedback on their experience. Their responses helped fine-tune the recipes and put the 3 most popular descriptive words on the front of each pack, ensuring the beer you brew will taste exactly as expected. The Hazy IPA is very popular.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU NEED?

TIPS

We strongly recommend using Pure Brew with this kit in order to achieve a commercial quality. Pure Brew is a professional beer enhancer. It feeds the yeast with essential nutrients, which supercharge the fermentation and support yeast development (even in limited oxygen conditions). Additionally, Pure Brew treats brewing water, eliminating problems caused by Chlorine and Chloramine, which can create a medicinal or, as it is sometimes referred to, a “homebrew” taste. Achieving optimum results in brewing critically depends on the condition of brewing water, but this important area is often overlooked. By using Pure Brew, you can effectively and easily condition brewing water, and maximise effective fermentation.

The addition of beer finings will improve the final quality of your beer. Finings such as Harris Beer Brite will help your beer to clear quickly and the sediment will be more likely to stay at the bottom of bottles or barrels. If you are using Corny Kegs then it is important to clear the beer as much as possible before kegging. Beer Finings will promote a faster and more efficient fall out of sediment and haze particles prior to kegging. Harris Starbrite is a highly effective vegan-friendly beer fining, which is rapidly becoming a firm favourite with home brewers.
