jeffh3 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I am in the state of Ohio in the USA. Been brewing at home since 1982, Started when I saw a TV commercial for JOHN BULL products. Have enjoyed brewing along with my brother since. Have enjoyed COOPERS many times, but haven't brewed with COOPERS products yet. I plan to soon. Great Site, Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Welcome to the Forum Jeff! I have found the Coopers homebrew products to be of great quality so you shouldn't be disappointed. Everytime I hear Ohio I start singing "Cleveland Rocks, Cleveland Rocks". Is it all of Ohio or is it just Cleveland that rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffh3 Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 Now that's funny! Thanks for the welcome Hairy. Oh ya, we all rock in Ohio!Ha Ha! I have used a lot of British, Dutch, US, and some German ingredients to home brew. I have always enjoyed a large cold Cooper with a rare steak! My next batch will be using Coopers! By the way, we always boil when brewing, do you brew without boiling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 We boil when we do extract brewing and we add malt to the boil for our hops. But we tend to not boil the hopped malt extract (ie. kits). If you were doing a straight Kit & Kilo (ie. kit plus 1kg of malt, sugar or brew enhancer) then we wouldn't boil anything; just mix it up in the FV.

Mainiac Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 How much water do you usually boil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 If it is just a short hop boil then 2-3 litres. If it is an extract brew then I boil 5-6 litres. If a partial mash then I boil around 12 litres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffh3 Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 Mainiac, I usualy brew with extract and specialty grains and hop pellets(plugs at times). Usually 45 min, boil, about 2.5 gallon. If that's your girlfriend or wife, put the brew pot away...you have better things to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainiac Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 It is not a self portrait and that is a good thing or I could not keep my hands off myself. If it was my girlfriend would I be on here? [lol] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
