Bottled at the end of March, however this is just too damn sweet. I would probably use 500gms of LDME and 500g rice next time, and add some super alpha hops.
Rob,
Do you think that there may be as much residual sugar in 500g of malt extract as in 1kg Brew Enhancer 2, thus resulting in the same problem with an overly sweet beer?
What about using 500g BE2, 500g dextrose and 500g rice malt extract?
Just a thought.
Cheers,
Oliver
G'day Oliver,
Not sure exactly, just tried one then and its also over carbonated.... maybe didnt fully ferment?
I've tried this with both the Coppers Lager and the Morgans Lager.
The brew made with the Morgans was brilliant and MUCH better than the Coopers.
Some tasters said better than the original.
Determined to move away from the cans and have tried a couple of times with moderate success.
Next attempt as follows. this for a 50 litre batch
