ATF All Brewery Kits – Brew on Any Setup with Precision Water & Grain Ratios
These recipes have been designed to be brewed on any home brewing setup using a water‑to‑grist ratio of 3 litres per kilogram. Every kit contains a detailed recipe and easy‑to‑follow instructions.
Boil‑Off Rates – Pre‑Calculated for Your Batch Size
The pre‑boil kettle volumes are based on the following boil‑off rates:
- 3.5 litres per hour for 24 litre batches
- 4 litres per hour for 48 litre batches
Perfect Your Water Profile & Mash pH with Brewing Salts
To help you achieve the target water profile and optimal mash pH, every kit includes brewing salts. During checkout, simply select your water source from a dropdown menu of known profiles.
- Your water source not listed? Choose “Not Listed/Not Required”.
- Have a water analysis report? Select “I will supply a water analysis info” – we’ll adjust the recipe and provide custom brewing salts for your water.
We need these values from your report: Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Chloride, Sulphate, alkalinity (as CaCO₃) or bicarbonate level, and pH.
Important Mineral Thresholds for Home Brewers
If any mineral in your brewing water exceeds 50 ppm, or your Sodium level is above 25 ppm, please contact us. We’ll assess whether your water can be adjusted to the target beer profile.
For Brewers Using Other Water Sources
The target water profile is provided so you can calculate your own mineral or acid additions.
Removing Chlorine & Chloramine
If you’re using chlorinated tap water, we strongly recommend an activated carbon filter (such as our Beer & Water Filtering System with a 0.5 Micron Carbon Water Filter) or Campden tablets to remove chlorine and chloramine.

Packed with hops, the ATF Ninkasi’s Nectar imparts wave after wave of hop flavour.
Citrussy and fruity, earthy, herbal/dank, floral, and piney on top of a solid malt base with a light biscuity dryness sufficient to carry the hops and not get in the way. The bitterness is firm and palate cleansing whilst not being overpowering.

ATF No Daze Haze is full of juicy hazy goodness and is only 3.1% (if brewed to spec). Wonderfully smooth with plenty of citrus and tropical fruit flavour and aroma it is almost like drinking the best fruit juice you've ever had.
Note on Dry Hopping
We recommend reducing the temperature of the beer to 16℃ before dry hopping to reduce the risk of the dry hop causing additional fermentation (dry hop creep) and increasing the ABV of the beer above the target 3.1%.
When cooling the beer we recommend capping the fermenter and using co2 to apply positive pressure (inside the fermenter) to avoid air being sucked in as the beer cools and shrinks as this may oxidise the beer.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Vape (Assumed Origin: Boddington’s) to produce a juicy hazy with a silky mouthfeel and great hop aroma and flavour.
Alternatively we recommend using Verdant IPA. Lallemand’s Verdant IPA yeast. LalBrew Verdant IPA yeast will produce fruity esters and is well suited to NEIPA’s. Verdant IPA yeast expresses high amounts of β-lyase enzyme promoting biotransformation accentuating hop flavour and aroma. and also produces high amounts of glycerol producing a beer with a silky mouthfeel.
You could also try Froth Spectra (Assumed Origin: Unknown (London)).Spectra can produce a spectrum of radiant flavour & aroma while exhibiting an elegant ester profile and velvety mouthfeel.
Alternatively you could use Lallemand's New England yeast. Lallemand New England produces beers with a unique fruit forward ester profile, which is sought after in NEIPA's. Through expression of a β-glucosidase enzyme, LalBrew® New England can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavour and aroma.

Introducing the NZ Pale Ale: A Sensory Journey of Hop Excellence!
With a harmonious blend of Taiheke hops on the hot side and dry-hopped with the dynamic trio of Riwaka, Nectaron, and Nelson Sauvin hops, this beer delivers an extraordinary hop-forward experience that will captivate your senses.
The combination of Gladfield Light Crystal and Toffee malt, beautifully layered upon a base of American Ale malt, creates a sturdy foundation for the hops to shine. This grain bill contributes a subtle sweetness and a touch of caramel complexity, complementing the hop profile without overpowering it.
With each sip, you'll discover the remarkable flavours that these hops bring to the forefront. The Taiheke hops, added during the whirlpool, mimicking hop dipping, infuses the beer with a vibrant burst of citrus zest, lime and grapefruit, tantalising your taste buds from the first sip.

Roggenbier translates to “Rye Beer”. It is typically 50% Rye malt giving it a characteristic grainy spicy character, which is completed by the classic weizen yeast tartness, spicy clove phenolics and fruity banana esters.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Lalbrew Munich Classic or Mangrove Jack's Bavarian Wheat yeast.
Note on Rye Malt
Rye malt contains a high amount of beta glucan, which increases wort viscosity and may slow runoff during lautering and sparging, and potentially cause a stuck sparge.
A mash rest at 40℃, sometimes called a Beta Glucanase rest, can help to break down the beta glucan in the wort and reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.
As added insurance this recipe includes oat hulls in the mash. The oat hulls do not add any fermentables, but improve the filter bed of the mash to reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.
