Black Rock

An extract kit is a 1.7kg tin of hopped concentrate that you dilute and ferment. A Crafted fresh wort kit is 23 litres of finished wort made from real grain and never concentrated, so you pitch yeast straight into it. The Crafted range sits much closer to all grain brewing because the sugars were never cooked down and rebuilt.

Pick the style you already drink rather than the one that sounds most interesting. Lager and NZ Draught suit traditional session beers, Pale Ale and XPA cover the hop-forward end, and Miners Stout or Oatmeal Stout are the dark options. Buy a matched yeast separately rather than using the sachet under the lid.

It is unhopped base material rather than a recipe, available in Light and Dark 1.7kg tins. Use it to lift the gravity of a kit, build a partial mash, add body to a stout, or make a yeast starter. Light is the neutral workhorse and Dark adds colour and deeper malt character to porters, stouts and brown ales.

No. Black Rock is made in New Zealand from New Zealand malt. Australian Home Brewing has stocked the range for decades and ships it Australia-wide from our Melbourne store.

Metro: usually a few business days. Regional: often a bit longer. You get tracking when it leaves the warehouse.
