weggl Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 I give in the only way i am going to ger a PLASTIC HYDROMETER, is to buy a complete kit. This raises a problem. What an i going to do with a Lager can? What sort of ale can you make with it. I don't want to wait untill winter to use it. Any good repices?[pinched] Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregT5 Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 I have heard the Lawnmower Lager is pretty good. 1.7kg Coopers Lager 1kg Brew Enhancer 1 Mix in 3 litres of hot water then top up to 25 litres. You probably know the rest. I think the new kits come with BE1 now instead of Brewing Sugar. Being made to 25 litres it is probably one of the larger lager recipes going around [lol] The lager brew I made when I got my kit is tasting very nice atm after 2 and a half months in the bottle.

weggl Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 Thanks for that info Greg, but just measured up my ice chest after reading Pauls measurements of the new DIY Kit and it wont fit, so I wont be getting my PLASTIC HYDROMETER. Bugger!!![pinched] Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
