tropicalpalmtree Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Hi, i'm going to be making a coopers canadian blonde as my next brew, i would like to get the ABV between 5-6%! my plan is using 1kg brew enhancer 1 & 500g light dry malt, is this a good mix? and will i achieve my desired ABV this way? i figured i would get nice body and a better beer this way, than using all out dextrose? i will be using US-05 yeast instead of the kit stuff. open to any suggestions or advice thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Try 1kg light dry malt and 500g dextrose. Should bump it up above 5% bottled (remember priming sugar contributes about 0.4% ABV) and it should taste better than using 1kg of BE1. Ferment it around 18 degrees and you should get a nice easy drinker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaS1 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 1+ what Otto said. You might want to try dry hopping it with a tea bag of Cascades pellets. Cheers, Christina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naughty Corner Brewing Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Is that the advice of a Canadian blonde? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
