I know that this is probably the wrong Forum for it, but could you please put up a recipie?

A mate and I have been talking about a coffee-brew for a while now and I would obviously love to get the recipie for a previously successful batch.

Thanks

Sam

Thanks for that... extremely helpful for us novices who are trying to get to the next level with our craft.

Hi All,

Now for an extremely novice question. I have read pretty much everywhere about 'steeping' and 'boiling' etc, and that you add hops to the boil at different stages to achieve different things, ie 10-15 minutes for aroma etc (I get that); however, what I dont get is that what exactly do you ...

I think that the wheat beer being ready quickly depends on the yeast rather than the addition of wheat. Did you use a wheat yeast like WB06 or a quality liquid yeast?

It was a Coopers kit can, and just the kit yeast. I know i should have probably grabbed a separate yeast from the HB store, but ...

I bottled a wheat beer on the weekend. How long should I wait before giving it a try? the standard 2 weeks?

Hey all,

I am struggling with the weather in Sydney at the moment. I can't imagine what you guys in Vic & SA are going through... or your beer for that matter!

Being a newbie with only 3 brews under my belt (the third is in the fermenter, and is due for bottling this afternoon), I was curious if ...

Hi all,

I recently bought a Coopers European Lager, however, with Cooper's tendancy to provide ale yeasts with their lagers, I was curious to know if the yeast with this particular can is actually a lager yeast (and therefore should be pitched at a lower temp) or an ale yeast?

Similarly, does ...

Yea I was trying to do pick a tree and bottle washer up a little cheaper... Ah well, retail it is then.

Hi All,

I have a brew going at the moment and am planning to bottle on the weekend, however, I am after a bottle drying tree and sanitizer so I dont have to do it the long way. If anyone has either in the Sydney area, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks,

Sam

I have a Coopers Lager can with 1kg Dextrose & 500g LDME and just the kit yeast going at the moment (a very eclectic mix I know...). The yeast was pitched at 28C and is currently sitting at about 24C (about 6 days in). My wort bubbled out of the airlock constantly for about the first 2 days, and I ...

Hi Scott & All,

I am also wishing to do a wheat beer for my next batch, however, I am considering buying a lager yeast rather than the yeast supplied with the kit (this would be my 3rd batch ever). As such I have three questions:

1. would the experts in on this forum recommend using the lager ...

Hi Damian,

Thanks for that... will give it a try next batch.

Hi All,

I am fairly new to the world of brewing, however, one of my favorite beers is Matilda Bay's Redback Crystal. I was curious to know if any of you have managed to brew a beer similar at home, and if so, if you'd be willing to share a recipe.

Thanks,

Sam

Thanks Greg!

Hi All,

I am new to the world of homebrew, having just received a Coopers Kit for Chrissy. However, have absolutely no idea where my local homebrew store is. I live in Camperdown in Sydney, and I knew there used to be a store in Rozelle, however, this has shut down (as I am told). As such, it it is ...
