weggl Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Some time back I complained that my IPA was too bitter, well how things can change. Now about 3 weeks later I am tasting a delightful beer, still a little bitter for my liking but the rate of change that occurred in the last 3 weeks or so I think it should be perfect in another 2 or 3 weeks. Guess Muddy was right again when he said leave it for 6 months! Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbo Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I find it's a fantastic can... The 'Authentic IPA' recipe was the brew that convinced my mates that I could make beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott1525228380 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Guess Muddy was right again when he said leave it for 6 months! Warren 6 months! Wow... I can't even manage 6 weeks [devil] but I do agree, it just keeps improving with age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weggl Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 Scott, have the same problem, waiting I mean. Mine is now just on 7 weeks, I hope I can last out another 2 weeks. Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91abv_chris Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I really like the way my IPA came out as well, it was my first Cooper's can. I added 1/2 oz (14 gr) of willamette to mine and very happy that I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Eh!L Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 i put one down a while back with a recipe that went like this; 23L water 1.7 kg TC IPA 905 g Canadian Blonde 566 g LME (amber) 28 g cascde 20min 14 g F-out 14 g cooper's yeast OG 1.046 ABV 5% it's quite possibly the best brew i've put down.[love] i highly recommend it if you like the hops. it's only 2 months old.

Muddy Waters Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Sounds nice. What did you do with the other 795g of Canadian Blonde? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Strange measures there..... 905g CB 566g LME Just curious why those amounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Eh!L Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 i know, i know. it sounds strange, i get the LME in 566g jars which is roughly equal to 500 g LDM and the 905g CB is a bad try at pouring a half can.[crying] . the other 795g went into another frankinstein mash-up![innocent] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Eh!L Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 i went looking through my notes for that lost 1/2 can of Can Blonde and found it in my Unreal ale mash-up. 1.7 Kg Real ale 882g CanBlonde 482 Malto dex (liquid) 614g Dex 23L water 14g cooper's yeast 189g dex bulk prime ABV5.8% this beer is still quite young but has great potential.[joyful] a "real" winner it leads me back to the question of what's on the can blonde? what variety of hops is in this kit. BTW i'm not looking to copy anything.[biggrin] [bandit] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
