  1. Clean and sterilize fermenter<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Add 8 \u2013 10 L of hot water into the fermenter<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Measure out sugar and slowly add to fermenter while stirring<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Once sugar is dissolved top up fermenter with cool water to bring temperature to between 22\u201330\u00baC all yeast is different<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Add nutrients and yeast and let stand for 1 hour<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. After 1 hour stir in yeast and let stand for 24 hours<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. After 24 hours stir well to aerate sugar wash ( This aeration allows for increased yeast reproduction as yeast will reproduce until there is no more oxygen at this point they will begin to create alcohol).<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Fermentation will complete within 4 -21 days. Check fermentation by either measuring specific gravity, or by tasting for left over sugars.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
