Mine has come out a little darker, but taste wise there’s not much difference Pretty good effort @Red devil 44 Dark, Cloudy whatever it's a beer & it's good, who cares. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 A Mangrove Jack Classic Bitter done in the Craft Kit 4 weeks in the bottle, not bad makes a pleasant change but as much as I still have to bottle in some PET bottles, I am leaning towards glass more, especially the 450ml Grolsch & German Style 500ml bottles, Coopers Longnecks are fine as well. If this beer last long enough it should age well. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my all grain recipe that I called Deuce. I did not realise that Coopers have their own Deuce Lager. Is that the recipe you thought I meant? I have not made that one. The two recipes have no relationship, other than sharing a name. I would make my all grain one again. But there are still so many recipes and only so much beer I can drink. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search for it on the Forum. There is a topic thread dedicated to it. Done any Saisons lately, specially with harvested yeast? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Your stories and pictures make me want to revisit some of those extract only brews. so I can better appreciate what Coopers has created for us in the cans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Tanqueray and tonic (half-and-half) for a change. Had to go for an alternative to beer, had a gout attack Maybe I’ve been overdoing the liver and seafood Naturally SWMBO’s reaction was “told you so!” 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this beer last long enough it should age well. I’m with you on the glass Phil- I use mainly Belgian Duvel bottles (33cls), some 1/2 litre English ale ones, and a few swingers. Plus these: 600gm 75cl. Could start a revolution if you filled’em with petrol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, I agree Shamus, it certainly is very easy to make beer these days as it is all done for you, but as we have all said that is only a foundation to build on - enter grain, malt, hop additions. I love experimenting with different brands, types & also make as many different beers as I can. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any particular tins you have in mind that go well with the addition of WLM? I would try Coopers Liquid Wheat to begin with ; ) and really any Coopers Ale Kits.... Real Ale, Pale Ale, Dark Ale, Stout... And I would add as well as, a kilo of Coops dry Malt - BE3 I think it is... The Coops Kit + Wheat liq malt extract + BE3 will deliver you nice mouthfeel, head, and head retention... in 23L or so... your normal volume... and 18 deg - and maybe be careful - might need the kraussen collar as it might be a bit of a frothy ferment... That liquid wheat malt will be the best twelve bux you have spent for a while : ) But then again - there are many ways to the top of the mountain. I think it is definitely worth a go though @DeviantLogic DL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezzza Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 On 5/2/2021 at 1:22 PM, Red devil 44 said: 150 Lashes Clone vs Commercial Version Red a quick question for you esp as you are the King of Kegging and the Guru of Beer Gas - mate the commercial on the left has a nice set of rising bubbles. Yours on the right does not appear to have the rising bubbles. I suspect yours does taste good - I am just interested in that 'rising bubble phenomenon'... As you can see in this Amber Ale below - and which looks good. Not long after - a few weeks - with my keg on around 18PSI I reckon I went into over-carb territory - maybe as the keg fill volume reduced too... And at the moment - though the Amber tastes great - I am not getting that rising set of bubbles thing happening... and was having foaming on the pour. So it seems to me that there is a stage in the keg when the below happens really well... but as the volume of beer reduces in the keg... that it is easier to overcarb... and then pouring with an overcarb does not generate the below bubble column Fest... Any suggestions @Red devil 44 Reddler - and any other Keg Lords - suggestions - most welcome... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
