A Grainfather all grain kit gives you everything required to brew a specific beer style from scratch – pre-measured grains, hops, yeast, and detailed instructions – without the hassle of sourcing and measuring individual ingredients.

Every kit comes with the recipe loaded directly into the Grainfather app, and can be used regardless of the equipment used. The app guides you through each stage – from mash temperatures to boil additions – with timely alerts telling you exactly when and how to add your hops, when to start your whirlpool, and when fermentation temperature adjustments are needed.
