Pale Man Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 5 hours ago, jennyss said: On the left is my latest Coopers Pale Ale with 500g LDM and a 55g mix of Galaxy, Centennial and Pride of Ringwood hops added. On the right is my first brew of a Coopers Amber Ale with 1.25g of LDM. The Pale Ale is yummy; the Amber Ale has a toffee flavour which I don't really like. I included the second photo to show a better head on the Amber Ale - look at the colour! Both beers look like i feel like a beer now 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful stuff JSS Please for me - try a brew with - Coopers kit - your choice - then another additional liquid Can - of Coopers Liquid Malt suggest Amber - and then - on top - another pack of dry BE2 or whatever - all in the same brew - and then see what you think... it is more expensive - but really worth trying out : ) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jennyss Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Thanks @Pezzzafor your suggestion. Just checking - do you mean a 1.5kg can of Coopers Amber Liquid Malt extract instead of 1.5kg of light dry malt? I will try it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he means the lot, it would be a gutsy, hearty brew with heaps of body & great head retention. Go for it Jenny. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking - do you mean a 1.5kg can of Coopers Amber Liquid Malt extract instead of 1.5kg of light dry malt? I will try it. Yes as noted by our Brewers above - I mean all of the ingredients in one brew - so three things all in one brew: 1. One Coopers Kit 2. One Coopers Liquid Malt Can 3. One Coopers BE Box of BE2 or BE3 All in the one Brew the three ingredients all together in the one 23L batch ; ) So... Coopers Kit - whatever your choice - and I really would recommend trying the Coopers Real Ale Can - then Additional - a tin of Coopers Liquid Malt - Light or Amber - and then further - a box of BE2 or BE3... so I think ABV might come out at like 5.4% - but you will get amazing creamy mouthfeel - head - and head retention - and great flavours... just a thought Worth trying at least for one brew - Yes it is more expensive throwing all in one - but it is worth having a try - to see what the result is... and seeing what you think of it : ) 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzza Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Had 8 days AFD, lots of water, and then also low Carb... quite a few kms of driving... and now trying the latest in keg - pretty yummy - just Coopers Schooner Malt grain and then some Roasted Barley.... Fuggles long Boil and some Gal late... not much Gal hop aroma - hop fade - but v nice Bier : ) 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tilpants Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 On 7/7/2024 at 8:08 AM, Aussiekraut said: Yes brewed myself. It is an all-grain brew using Munich, Munich II, Pilsner, CaraMunich II, CaraPils, CaraHell and Carafa II malts, Hallertau MF and Tettnang hops and M76 yeast. If you require a k&b recipe, I can't help you much. I'd say a Munich Lager kit as a base, then dark DME, and steep some of the specialty grains I used, boil it for 15 minutes and add some Hallertau MF whilst boiling. That should get you into the vicinity of where you want to be. You may have to tweak here and there to get the best result. Thanks for the advice, I'm going to see how this Schwarzbier goes, and maybe try it again with some lighter malts, carafa II perhaps instead of the carafa III if I find it a bit too roasty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 (edited) First taste of a Summer Berry Sour from a 5l keg (I bottled the rest). I only just put it on the gas so obviously it’s not carbed at all. Lovely tart but refreshing taste, and fairly clear already. Input 1kg of cherries in rather and 0.5kg. Gives it a nice colour. I might even go for 1.5kg if I made it again Edited July 9 by stquinto Typo 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 018, Deez Beez Honey Wheat Ale (Beez Beez clone) Deep gold/light copper with a 10mm or so head that dissipated fairly quickly. Minimal lacing. A mildly wheaty, malty aroma. Tangy wheat beer flavour with a distinctly honey taste that lingers. Quite good IMO. Here are the brew notes. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down here in wintery Mexico, it’s time for a high ABV stout… Looks tasty but this glass would last about 3 seconds before I knocked it over. High centre of gravity, small footprint and a healthy dose of AussieKraut do not go particularly well together 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
