After lunch you'll start the boil, adding hops and kettle finings to the mixture. Every part of the process will be explained to you as you get to it, so you'll have a really thorough understanding of brewing by five o' clock, when you'll have done the clean up and be ready to head home... or back into the pub for another well-deserved pint!
