a) to prevent chunks
b) to sterilise it
c) to add gravity to the boil (where you are adding hops)

That's the one, couldn't get it anywhere except the local BS. Green can from memory and they suggested 1.5kg liquid malt. Still new at this so that is all i used but damn, taste test after three weeks and i can't wait to drink this in a few months time.

Yeah the Thomas Coopers are good, in conjunction with liquid malt you can't go wrong!
