Endless Possibilities for Experimentation!

Here are some ideas:

• Hops: Add any hops of your choice for extra aroma.
• Souring: Use Philly Sour yeast.
• Low-carb: Add Amigase for full attenuation.
• Gluten-reduced: Add Brewer’s Clarex.
• Increased strength: Skip adding water or add extra fermentable sugars (e.g., malt extract).
• Lactose: Enhances smoothness and sweetness.
• Other additions: Oak, coffee, spices, orange peel, fruit/purée, cacao nibs…

Hop and Yeast Suggestions:

As mentioned, we encourage experimentation. However, having some concrete suggestions can also be helpful. Here are some ideas:

• Pilsner: Brew a crisp pilsner by adding Saflager S-189/W34/70 yeast or opt for a more flavorful and crisp profile with LalBrew Diamond Lager.
• Sour: Create a fresh sour by pitching Philly Sour, letting it work for 3-4 days, then adding US-05 yeast. Flavor with fruit purées like raspberry or passion fruit—sour fruits pair exceptionally well in these styles! Experiment freely—there are endless possibilities!
• Kölsch: Use K-97 yeast for a fantastic, flavorful Kölsch.
• Blonde Ale: Use US-05 yeast and dry-hop with 100g of Citra, Mosaic, or El Dorado for an exciting twist!

FWK Creative is also excellent for using up leftover hops!
