CarlV1 Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Hi guys, I'm playing more with the toucans now as I can buy OS and International cans cheaper than the same weight in LME (unhopped) - but have found my toucan APA right up on the bitter end. Nice but requires attention when drinking. I was thinking that given the Mexican Cerveza is the lightest (270) could that be added as a LME to any other kit? Say - toucan APA and the mexican? How about the Stout and mexican for a less bitter version? (with other extras too of course!). Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 One option might be to increase the brew volume to 25 litres. This is something we suggest when a customer says they can't get BE2 - 2 x Australian Pale Ale beer kits made to 25 litres and both sachets of yeast [biggrin] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanOtherOne Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Did a toucan of Coopers Canadian blonde and Real ale, 250g LDM. no hops, 23litres, OG1058 FG 1012. tasted nice after aging for three months bottled, slight bitterness but still with good boody and mouth feel. Cheers, Ivan[wink] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
