Yeah, I did not want something so punchy as a 7.2% beer. So, initially I dropped the Dextrose out of the recipe altogether and planned to only brew 23 litres. Then I decided to take it up to 27 litres. I then reintroduced 350g of the 1kg of Dextrose in the original Coopers version to try to keep it around 6%. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red devil 44 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Brew day is not until Thursday, but picked up all the ingredients before Easter. AG ‘Sierra Nevada Clone, a nice 3.5%. ‘Also picked up a keg swap & go style which is an International Premium Lager, waiting for the other keg to blow and then I’ll hook this one up, just sitting patiently in the other fridge currently. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Converting the kitchen & getting the equipment ready for Brew Day, a bit of cleaning & sanitising to do but that's all part of it. In case you are wondering the Brew Zilla doesn't sit on the table, it sits on the metal stand on wheels & I assemble a step-up platform with milk crates & heavy planks for sparging. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
