Hey, after a vivid dream last night about brewing a pale ale kit, I took it as a sign so been out and got a john bull IPA kit and some muntons beer kit enhancer. I, however haven't done a kit before ( just all grain) and was hoping for some advice so I don't ruin it. I was thinking of doing a hop tea with some admirals I have left over and maybe dry hopping, any thoughts? I'm I right in assuming the enhancer completely replaces sugar?
Thanks in advance, matt
 
Dry hop as you would if you were all grain, ie straight in the fermenter loose for 5 days or so once the initial fermention had subsided. And yes bke is just a substitute for the sugar.
Have a read of this kit guide and this one
:cheers:
 
Thanks for the links I thought I knew what I was doing just worried I might have not known some trick or other to stop it going bad. Must have picked up more than I thought trawling through this site ;)) be nice to have a short batch compared to the monster all grain days
