  Instructions:  
  SActivate the Yeast Pack according to the direction on the back of the package. Put grains into a grain bag or muslin bag. Heat 2 - 1/2 gallons of filtered water along with Brew Saltz to 158*F. Turn off heat, add grain bag. (Do Not add grains to water above 165*F.). Let
temperature rest down to 152*F. and hold at 152*f. for 25 minutes, stirring grain bag gently from time to time. Leave pot uncovered during this time. Then remove grain bag 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 extract and stir. Turn on heat and while stirring bring to a boil. Make note of the time the boil starts and add 1/2 oz. of the Challanger hops. Make sure your boil is a calm boil, Do Not boil to hard. Boil for 55 minutes and add the other 1/2 oz of the Challanger hops along with the Irish Moss. Boil another 5 minutes, While stirring the wort, add the Honey.
Turn off heat. Gently stir for a few minutes and let steep 5 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
