How do they make beer kits?

[Boycott]

Yes they make wort and condense it somehow. But anyone know how they do it? Which method/s?

[Ed]

they drop the pressure so it doesn't take as much heat to boil it (i.e. heat it under a vacuum) to try reduce the amount of darkening that would normally occur i think... other than that?

Any proof/links to that?

A wonderful question. We've just added an FAQ on the website. Scroll to the bottom of this page:

Its not a comprehensive answer, but I hope it answers the basics.

How do they make the LME then?

Two articles here from BYO here and AHA here. Fairly basic I know, but may give you some general info on the topic. Alternatively, you could shoot a quick email to Muntons or Coopers, you never know, they might come back with more specific info.
