Hey Micko, One of the best kit & dry hop recipes I made when I first started brewing was the Coopers Parity Amber Ale http://www.coopers.com.au/#/diy-beer/beer-recipes/ale/detail/parity-amber-ale-1/ I don't think you'll have much of an issue using a lager tin instead of the traditional draught...

Hey Rusty, using a spec yeast would be a good start to improving your kit beers. It just depends on what recipe you plan to use with your Draught tin. If it is just a kit & kilo brew the S-04 will help to bring out a bit more of the malt flavour. If you plan on adding "New World" hops (US, NZ...

With the warmer ferment for the lager yeast you will still make beer but probably not your traditional bright lager. The fresh wort kit I brewed was great but I also added an additional 120g of hops. The wort kits are good but still fairly expensive compared to kits & bits, especially if you...

Welcome to the forum & joys of brewing mate. I've used an All Inn kit before but not the lager. Which yeast did you use for the fresh wort kit?

Where do you live mate? Who is your local brew shop? You could use the fuggles but I don't think it will give you the desired effect. If you had about 40g of hops I would boil half for 10 minutes and dry hop the rest after the beer has been in the fermenter for about 5 - 7 days. Keep the...

Hey mate, I've only had this beer once last year and I didn't really blow me away but I'll try and help you with a recipe. The original: 29 IBU 20 EBC 4.9% ABV From the top of my head I would do something along the lines of this: 1.7kg Mangrove Jack’s Belgian Ale tin 1.5kg Amber liquid malt...

Depending on how much dry malt you have you could make a tasty light lawn mower beer. Nelson's Light 1.5kg LDM 300g Crystal 30g Centennial - boiled for 30 mins 25g Nelson Sauvin - flameout/steep 20g Nelson Sauvin - dry hop Ale yeast 21 litre brew.

With a couple of extra ingredients you could make a Witbier. 1.5kg Munich LME 1.5kg Wheat LME WB06 / Munich yeast Coriander seeds Orange peel German bittering hops 21lt brew.

At the end of last year I did my first partial mash using a Koslch recipe from BYO magazine. It turned out OK but quite dark for a Kolsch and over-carbonated. Following that I made the Cooper’s BeeKeeper recipe – TC Wheat beer tin, 1kg LDME, 350g honey & WB06 and it rules. Two weeks in the...

Sounds about right mate. I did the same recipe (but with Coopers tins) in a 22L batch, OG was 1053, FG was 1007.

Brew the Cooper's recipe! I brewed one up in December which I'm drinking at the moment. Super simple and packs a punch.

It looks like a good recipe, the two yeasts are what will give it the x-factor I reckon. I've brewed a fair few Coopers recipes and they always make a good beer.

Yeah mate it's a Thomas Coopers hopped wheat beer can as per their recipe. http://www.coopers.com.au/#/diy-beer/beer-recipes/strong/detail/biere-du-mois-saison/ And I stuffed up my first post - I filled it to 22 litres, not 20.

I've got a toucan in the fermenter at the moment as well :D Coopers Saison Oz Pale Ale Tin Wheat Beer Tin 500g LDM 25g Saaz Belle Saison Yeast 20 litres OG = 1053 My first Saison, really looking forward to tasting the finished product.

I had a Bee Sting from Barossa Valley Brewing last night and they use Orange Blossom Honey & late hop with Stryian Goldings - 100 times better than Beez Neez IMO. I'm going to try & replicate this when I get around to brewing the Beerkeeper :) Cheers + beers.

I tasted Kohatu (with Cascade) in the Moa SKW 99 Not Out Pale Ale - it's pretty delicious. Brewers Choice have stores on the South, North & West Side if you're after hops. Otherwise if you're after something more exotic try Craftbrewer at Capalaba.

+1 for Cascade & Centennial combo. Try Burleigh Brewing's 28 Pale Ale for an awesome example. I brewed a Chinook & Citra draught which I had my first taste of on Monday and will be awesome with a bit longer in the bottle. I put down an all Summer APA on the weekend which I'm looking forward to...

This might be of interest to you mate: http://brewerschoice.com.au/girl-every-porter/ The Black Cat Wort comes in a 15L drum from All Inn Brewing Co. I turned one into an IPA and topped it up to 20 litres and once bottled was about 4.3%, no other fermentables. (EDIT: not your typical IPA...

This recipe might be worth checking out too mate. http://coopers.com.au/#/diy-beer/beer-recipes/ale/detail/golden-ale-recipe-pack-23-litres/ It will be a great example of how spec grains & yeast plus some extra hops can make a completely different beer using the same can. Plus using all malt...

You should be OK mate. Sounds like a straight forward recipe, just let the yeast do it's thing. RDWHAHB.
