Most 'Turbo Yeast' has proper directions printed on the packet –
follow these. If it does not, then the procedure below will work.
First, you need to clean and sterilise a 23L fermenter (5 gallon). Use
a cleaner such as KegLand Powdered Brewing Wash (KL05494) and
then sterilise the fermenter with a steriliser such as StellarSan
(KL05357). These can be purchased from your local KegLand
Distributor.
Dissolve 8Kg of plain white sugar or dextrose into the bucket and stir
until fully dissolved in 15Liters of room temperature to warm water.
Make sure that the spoon you use to stir it with has been cleaned
the same way as your fermenter. Add a pack of 'Turbo Yeast' and
stir for about a minute. Put the lid on loosely or use with suitable
airlock. Leave the fermenter for about a week at room temperature
(around 25C) and it should be ready. Check with a hydrometer to
make sure that it is about 0.980. If the wash does not go below
0.990, then you will not get the full amount of alcohol out of it.
Leave it for a few extra days. If it does not change, then please
contact your KegLand distributor for advice. If you are in cold place,
you may need to keep the wash warm by keeping it somewhere
warmer or adding a heating pad. Your home brew shop can give
more advice on fermenting washes, as well as other recipes.
