Just for the record.....

1 Tin Coopers Bitter
500g BE1
250g LDME
200g pale malt
150g caraamber
50g wheat malt
100g dark crystal malt
30g Styrian Goldings (5.5%AA); 10 @ 30min; 10 @ 10 min, 10 @ 5min
Yeast from Coopers IPA (S-33?)

Steeped crystal malt in boiling water for 1 hour. Mashed other grains at 60-70C for 1.5 hours, then sparged with hot (boiling) water. Added to pot with DME and BE1 and all boiled for about 30min with the hop additions as noted.

Fermenting at about 20C

Put this down last night to burn up some left-overs. Have never done a C.Bitter can before - any predictions?

Cheers

That should come out beautifully. Bring it to the Canberra brewers meeting for a taste test!

It's one of my New Years resolutions to get there - only work, uni and babies keeps me pretty busy. I'll bring the bitter.
