Your Label Peelers Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale Original Beer Kit never sits on a shelf. Your grains are crushed to order. Your ingredients are packed fresh and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about providing you with the freshest ingredients for you to make your best beer.

Get ready to unleash your inner brewmaster with the Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale beer kit! This kit is perfect for those who love a bold, flavorful ale with a unique twist. You'll be crafting a beer that's not only fun to make but also a delight to drink. With its rich, complex flavor profile, your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale will be the talk of the town.

Your journey begins with 6 lbs. of Pilsen Dry Malt Extract, providing a solid base for your ale. The addition of 1.5 lb. Rye Malt and 1 lb. Victory Malt brings a spicy, biscuity character to the mix. The 8 oz. Caramel 40L and 2 oz. Chocolate Malt contribute a touch of sweetness and a deep amber hue. Your hop lineup includes 1 oz. Magnum Hops for a firm bitterness, 2 oz. Citra Hops for a burst of citrusy aroma, and 1 oz. Centennial Hops for a well-rounded, floral finish. The Yeast Energizer/Irish Moss Combo Packet ensures a clean, efficient fermentation, while the Fermentis Safale US-05 Dry Yeast provides a reliable, neutral profile. Finally, the pièce de résistance: 4 oz. of American Oak Chips, added during secondary fermentation, impart a subtle yet distinct oaky character that perfectly complements the rye and hops. So, gear up and get brewing – your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale awaits!

star sanSanitizer and Spray Bottle

Good sanitation practices are absolutely fundamental to good beer making. Five Star San is the premier sanitizer you will need to make your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale beer kit. A great practice for extra protection is to have a spray bottle filled with sanitizing solution so you can re-sanitize everything that touches or goes near your beer. Sanitation is much more difficult with beer than wine because beer has a higher pH. Wine's high acidity makes bacterial infection less likely but with beer, one small mishap can cost you your batch.

When your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale is done, you will need bottles. This standard 12 ounce bottle is a good choice. You will need 54 for a 5 gallon batch. Bottles do not come with caps.

Carboys   

The 5 gallon carboy pictured here is the standard size for any beer kit. If you have never worked with a carboy, it is important to know they should not be moved full without a carboy handle or a carrier.

The pot pictured is an 8 gallon pot that is perfect for any beer kit or a standard 5 gallon batch. 

wart-chiller.pngWort Chillers and Thermometers

Wort Chillers and Thermometers are long term investments. It is important to chill your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale wort quickly. The quicker you chill it the stronger the cold break will be. You also need a good thermometer that reads fast temperature fluctuations.  

SiphonsSiphons

Auto-siphons are a great luxury item to have in your brew equipment. Once you have one you will never go without it again. Don't forget to use a heavy duty sanitizer to clean it since you don't want to replace it as often as hoses. A good sanitizer for that job is Five Star San. 

FermenterFermenters

The fermenter pictured here is standard for a 5 gallon beer kit.

minijet-tubing-34987-97929.jpgHoses

 Many people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often or even using as single use items is highly recommended with beer making. Hoses are very hard to clean and beer is very susceptible to bacterial infection. You do not want to risk losing your  Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale over a few feet of unsanitary hose.

Pouring your wort into a carboy can be tricky. Use a big funnel made just for the job. They even have different mesh screens to remove particles. 

AirlocksAirlocks

It is recommended to replace airlocks often. Because they never physically touch the beer, the sanitation risk is too often overlooked. Bacteria can spread without physical contact in a closed environment and plastic stubbornly harbors bacteria.   

6.5 stopperStoppers and Bungs 

Bungs and stoppers should also be periodically replaced. They can dry out and harbor bacteria. 

 carboy brushCarboy Brush

Keeping your carboy clean before and after use is key to avoid bacterial infection in your beer. A carboy brush is a great tool to get into those nooks and crannies.

Stainless Steel Carboy and Bottle Washer is a convenient way of cleaning your bottles and/or carboys.  This high quality tool will come in handy.  Hooks up straight to your faucet with the bottle washer adapter (#4804) and puts out plenty of pressure to clean those stubborn stains from beer bottles that have been sitting around. 

bottle capperCapper

When you bottle your Riot Gear Oaked Rye Ale, you will need to cap your bottles. This capper is inexpensive, easy to use and does not require attaching to a counter. It has a magnet to hold the cap in place.
