[mrchino73]

Hi, after reading and re-reading the whole forum about this subject, I deciced to go ahead withe the brewing of this extract

1 mexican cerveza

1 BE2

yeast (the kit yeast is out of date so will be using 05)

18-20°

hops,here is my concern! dont know if using citra or saaz, probably Citra. the only method I kwon is dry hoping, cause i dont know how to make tea with the hops.....

think its going to be ok, but just wanted to check if everything is in order....

thnk you all for the helpful advices and the willing to help us new brewers, always!

i'm doing the same kit and kilo this weekend, good luck with your brew.

i'd go with citra myself for the citrus flavour you'll get from the dry hop.

100% Citra! 

Good luck with the brew

Go for the Citra. Try 25 grams as a dry hop or put 25grams in a container (wrapped in a Chux cloth) pour recently boiled hot water hat is just under 80C and leave for around 20mins, then pour the hop tea into the fermenter. You can put the Chux in as well if you like.

 I would suggest to get the best out of the Cerveza extract it would be best to use a lager yeast at around 12c. If you use the can yeast that came with the extract you are using, it should be OK.

Doing the exact same brew right now. Changed up the yeast to harvested Dubbya fermented at 12°. Added Morgans Citra once krausen had collapsed and will remove it after 3 days (today). Cold crashing to 2° then bottle after 6 days or so.

Good luck with your brew.
