Product Details

An easy homebrew recipe for a beer you will actually want to drink. This Scottish Export recipe kit comes with every pre-measured ingredient you need

An easy homebrew recipe for a beer you will actually want to drink. This Scottish Export recipe kit comes with every pre-measured ingredient you need to brew Martin's Scottish Export, a 5-gallon all-grain batch, from grain to glass.

Scottish export, or 80 shilling, is the strongest of the everyday Scottish ales and the one most often sent abroad, which is how it got the name. It builds on the same malt-forward base as its lighter siblings but with more weight and depth, caramel and toast with a faint roast from a small addition of roasted barley. Hops stay in a supporting role.

At four and a half percent it has enough body to satisfy while holding the clean, cool-fermented profile that defines the family. East Kent Goldings supplies a light, earthy bitterness.

A Note On Substitutions

This kit includes Maris Otter in place of the recipe's Pale Malt, Golden Promise (Thomas Fawcett); Crystal 50 in place of the recipe's Fawcett Crystal Malt I; Roasted Barley in place of the recipe's Roasted Barley (Thomas Fawcett). We stock dry yeast only, so LalBrew Nottingham (English/Neutral) dry yeast stands in for the recipe's Scottish Ale (Wyeast Labs 1728).

  • This kit is built for brew-in-a-bag (BIAB), the simplest way to make all-grain beer at home. The basic brew day looks like this:

    1. Heat your water and steep the milled grain to make wort.
    2. Boil the wort, adding the hops on the schedule in the recipe.
    3. Cool the wort down quickly, then transfer it to your fermenter.
    4. Pitch the yeast and let it ferment for about two weeks.
    5. Bottle or keg, wait for carbonation, then enjoy.

    That yields roughly 53 bottles of fresh Scottish Export. It works great with our digital electric homebrew systems, which hold your temperatures for you, though any kettle and burner will do.

  • This is a recipe kit, so it includes the ingredients only. To brew it at home you will also need:

    • A brew kettle or an electric all-in-one brewing system
    • A grain bag for brew-in-a-bag (or a mash tun for a traditional mash)
    • A fermenter with an airlock
    • A thermometer and a way to chill the wort
    • Sanitizer, and bottles or a keg for packaging
