Steep the crushed crystal at 70°C for 20 minutes and strain. Boil the liquid with the BrewBlend and Goldings for 45 minutes, dissolve the liquid malt off the heat, top up to 12 litres and add the yeast. Dry hop with Fuggles on day 4.
You'll need: a fermenter (the 30L you already have works, or a 15L), a pot of about 5 litres, a fine sieve or grain bag, a hydrometer, a capper and crown-seal bottles. The Small Batch Home Brew Beer Kit has the fermenter, capper, crown seals, carbonation drops and sanitiser.
