Gypsum (calcium sulfate) adds permanent hardness (calcium ions) to brewing water. Calcium Sulphate causes permanent hardness because it doesn't get removed by boiling. It is believed that sulphate suppresses harshness and astringent flavours which therefore allows brewers to use large amounts of hops without extracting undesirable harshness from other components of the hop.

This heat insulation jacket is designed to be used with the Grainfather to keep heat contained in the boiler and maintain a constant temperature during your brew during cooler times of the year.

• Material -SBR Foam (11mm thickness).

This Sparge Water Heater is a temperature controlled urn that allows you to heat up to 18 L of water. This makes the process easier, start heating your sparge water when you begin the mash to ensure it is ready for when you need to sparge. Once water is at required temperature, it will hold that temperature until changed or turned off.

A highly specific endoprotease that prevents chill haze in beer by hydrolyzing haze-active polypeptides where the hydrogen bonding that causes chill haze occurs.
For use at the beginning of fermentation; made with DSM Brewers Clarex®.

As a side effect, Clarity-Ferm has been also found to reduce gluten in beer made with barley.

Add when pitching yeast.

Simcoe Hops is a dual purpose hops with high bittering potential. The aroma in Simcoe Hops is complex, and this is part of what explains its popularity with bold hop heavy ales.

A relatively new hop on the market, this hop used to be called CFJ90. Described by some as a "Super Cascade" and we tend to agree, but it's not nearly as "citrusy". Some even use it for aroma as well as bittering. Bitterness is quite clean and can have floral notes depending on the boil time. (alpha acid: 9.5-11.5% / beta acid: 4.0-5.0%)

The Amarillo variety was discovered by Virgil Gamache Farms Inc. in one of their hop yards in Washington State and propagated and introduced by them as Amarillo. Unlike most varieties of hops, which may be acquired and propagated by the purchase of rhizomes, Amarillo hops are privately grown only by Virgil Gamache Farms; also the organization holds a trademark on the name "Amarillo" for hops.
