hey all
iv bought ingredients to make a coopers stout was thinking along the lines of:
1kg brew enhancer 2
250g light dry malt
250g coppers brewing sugar

i thought id add more sugar than usual because it is a stout. Would that b the correct thing to do or wood this end in a disaster?
by the way ...

what sugars would you use for the coopers stout?

does anyone know if the pirces on the coopers website are including postage?
i imagine they arent but hopefully they are!
cheers

hi all
i was thinking of making a coopers stout. Does anyone know how they turn out and if ther shood b anything extra added to it. Also i was wondering if the coopers stouts come with a special yeast or is it just the standard coopers yeast?
cheers

lol sorry didnt no how to quote properly hahaha

That recipe would be fine. I regularly add up to 1.75kg of extra sugars/malts

scblack your brew must have a very high alcohol content with that amount of extra sugar. How does it affect the taste?

oh ok
does maltodextrin affect the alcohol content at all?
would a mexican cerveza with
brew enhancer 2
200g dextrose
200g maltodextrin
turn out ok or wood ther b too much sugar?

wat is the differnece between maltodextrin and dextrose?

ok i will add some hops to the next one
how much extra dextrose would i add to increase the alochol without ruining the taste? Having it a bit drier would probably do it some good
the batch is a standard 22L
cheers

hi all
im a reasonably new brewer and have recently made a coopers pale ale which tasted great. The only problem was that it tasted a bit light and lacked a bite to it. i used the brew enhancer 2
in future batches should i add some extra dextrose to make the taste stronger and increase the alcohol ...
