Brewing Sugar - Glucose - Dextrose 1kg

Brew Mart recommends brewing sugar for all types of brewing, be it beer, wine, cider or spirits; during the primary fermentation and the priming of bottles or barrels, it is 100% fermentable and is faster to dissolve.

Brewing Sugar is packed in durable, thick 1 kg bags for safe shipping.

When brewing beer, brewing sugar improves fermentation which produces a crisper, cleaner tasting beer with less tang, and it is also excellent to use in your wash when making liqueurs and spirits.

Using brewing sugar in all types of brews will determine the alcohol strength of the finished product. Using a hydrometer or spirit alcohol meter to measure the alcohol is very helpful and highly recommended.

What is Brewing Sugar

.

Brewing sugar is a single sugar which is dextrose which is chemically the same as glucose.

Brewing sugar is a simple sugar found naturally in food such as fruit, honey and corn and some areas brewing sugar is called corn sugar

Brewing sugar is a Dextrose Monohydrate, which is a Mono Saccharide (one molecule of glucose).

Granulated sugar is a Di-saccharide (2 molecules). 

Using dextrose is the way to start your brew quicker, and the ferment will be cleaner. 

Regular household sugar has to be 'split' by the yeast, which produces by-products and impurities. 

These by-products can have a taste that does affect the taste of home-brewed drinks. 

We recommend using brewing sugar for optimum results 

Without a doubt, the best brewing sugar for brewing beer is dextrose.
