The final step is to pitch the yeast. Prior to pitching I rehydrated the yeast by putting it into a jug with 150ml of water warmed to 25c, left for 10 minutes then mixed into the wort.
At this stage it is important to give it all a good mix in order to get plenty of oxygen into the wort to aid the yeast in the fermentation process.
Some of the guys on Jim's Beer Kit Forum attach a paddle to an electric drill to aid this - again something I aim to get round to - for the moment I'm using elbow grease.
