Frequently asked questions about the Simply Ginger Beer extract kit

What else do I need to brew the kit?

You need 1 kg of malt extract or dextrose/sugar in addition to the kit, plus sugar or carbonation drops for priming. If you have no equipment yet, Startsett Basic covers what you need to brew extract kits.

Is yeast included?

Yes. The yeast is included in the kit.

How much beer does the kit make?

Approx. 40 half-litre servings, with an alcohol content of approx. 3.8%.

Malt extract or sugar – which is better?

Both give the right alcohol content. Malt extract adds more flavour and body than plain sugar, which only adds alcohol.

What is the difference between an extract kit and a Fresh Wort Kit?

An extract kit is mixed with water. A Fresh Wort Kit is 20 litres of ready-brewed, water-adjusted wort from a professional brewery. It is simpler and quicker, and the beer turns out much better. If you are considering an extract kit, try a Fresh Wort Kit instead.
