  Instructions:  
  Activate the Yeast Pack according to the direction on the back of the package. Combine grains and flaked barley into a grain bag or muslin bag. Heat 2 gallons of filtered water along with Brew Saltz to 165*F. Turn off heat, add grain bag. (Do Not add grains to water above 165*F.). Let temperature rest down to 122*F., stirring grain bag gently from time to time. About 25 minutes.After the wort has reached 122*F., slowly heat back up 155*F.. Hold a 155*F. for 10 minutes. Then remove grainbag and let drain into brew pot. Do Not Squeeze Grain Bag! Rinse grains over brew pot by slowly pouring 2 cups of HOT tap water over top of grain bag. Discard grains. With the heat off, add malt extracts and stir. Turn on heat and while stirring bring to a boil. Make note of the time the boil starts and add the 1/2 oz. of Cluster hops. Make sure your boil is a calm boil, Do Not boil to hard. Boil for 30 minutes and add the other 1/2 oz of the Cluster hops along with the Irish Moss. Boil another 15 minutes and add the 1 oz of the Tettnang hops. Boil for a final 15 minutes. Turn off heat. Gently stir for a few minutes. Cool the wort and add to fermenter on top of 2 gallons of very cold water. HINT: 8 Lbs of good filtered ice = 1 gallon of water. Top off to 5 gallons. After the temperature cools to 80 degrees or cooler, open the yeast package and pour the contents on top of the wort. Ferment 7-10 days at 68* -72*F. You can also go from primary to secondary after 5 days and leave in secondary 7 days. The final specific gravity should be 1.014 - 1.016. To bottle, rack into bottling bucket. Heat 12 oz of water and 3/4 cup dextrose in microwave for 2 minutes, then add to bottling bucket. Stir gently but thoroughly. Bottle and cap.
