Anyone ever made a Cooper ginger beer using 2 cans?
By the way, thanks to Harris Scarf at Highpoint for selling off all there HB stock nice and cheaply. Beer kits $4.50, ginger beer $4.00.

What section is all of the home brew stuff in Harris Scarfe? I checked out the one in Forrest Hill the other day, couldn't find anything!

It looked like they just got a small load in.
It was with the kitchen utensils.

Chris, having tried a single can coopers ginger beer, I'd be very reluctant to recommend a double dose. The coopers can seems to use excessive amounts of artificial sweetener and leaves a bad aftertaste. Best to use a single can and give it some more zing and mask the bad taste by adding a heap of grated ginger boiled in some water with brown sugar. I also add about a teaspoon each of ground cinnamen and cloves. I've got a recipe somewhere at home that I can dig out for you if you're interested.
Cheers

I hadn't thought about the sweetner.
I think I'll go with the grated stuff. I'm always up for a new recipe. Thanks.
