I know his intentions were good, I never doubted that. I didn't say he called me an idiot, but I was pointing out that thats what people probably think I am by still asking questions when I have been provided with links. Yes I was provided with links and yes I searched but I needed someone to...

I agree with what you are saying mate 100%. I do a lot of research but I'm very green compared to expert home brewers like yourself. Sometimes you need someone with the expertise to give you a hand. I was totally confused with the links and wasn't sure on a number of topics. I just needed...

Cheers buddy, I appreciate the help

Thanks Mate mighty helpful!!!

Yes I did, call me an idiot or whatever you will but somthings for me were still left unanswerd and I was unsure. I was always taught at school even if I researched and If I still wasn't sure to always ask for help. I thought I would ask the helpful people in this foum to the specific...

Just another question whilst i'm on this topic. How long will the recultivated yeast last for, if stored correctly etc? After fermentation is completed and its been bottled can you use the yeast cake for another brew down the track? Will the yeast cake have the same postive tatse affects as...

Thanks QLDKEV, you have answered all my questions. Cheers Mate

Thanks Mate for info. Ok, so how much of the cultivated yeast do I need? and does this mean I do not use the kit yeast?

Hey guys This has probably been answered about a million times before but I can't find the answer. I want to know what's the benefits of re-culturing coopers yeast? Does it taste better? I was thinking of doing it for my next Pale Ale home brew, how many Pale Ale 375ml stubbies worth of yeast...

Thanks mate, thats cleared things up for me

Thanks for the info mate. I still want to steep some grains in my brew regardless, but would you reckon I should still buy some LDM, or just use the dextrose/corn syrup and grains?

Hey I'm about to do a Cooper Pale Ale, I got the tin plus I have a packet of Dextrose or a packet of 75% Dextrose & 25% Corn Syrup. Not sure which packet to use, any advice? I don't have any LDM but what I do have is about 1kg of Cystal Malt Grain. I was going to add some fresh grains in...

Let us know how it turns out, I'd be very interested.

I'm not not going to brew a Brigalows but I have always been interested in what other people thought about the beer. Toohey's well I may try a Toucan with one day, if they are on sale. Thats it big Nath I guess as long as people keep buying they will keep their price the same, why would they...

Thanks guys for your responses, seems like Toohey's can make a decent drop if you do it the right way. Anyone have a nice recipe for a Tooheys it?

LOL thats what I heard. Makes you wonder how the charge the same pirce as the Coopers kit

I'm just curious does anyone here brew Brigalow or Tooheys kits? And if so how do you rate them? I normally stick too Coopers, but sometimes I see Brigalow and Tooheys kits on the shelf and think to myself should I give them a go?? People must be brewing it otherwise they would not stock them...

Thanks guys for the advice and information. Before I dabble into steeping grains I will do a bit more research and have a chat with my LHBS.

Hi guys I have bene brewing extract for a little while now and pretty confident at doing that. I want to step it up a fraction and do a partial for my next brew. I'm new to all things grain, but just a question I had and I hope this makes sense. When you steep Crystal Malt Grain your hoping to...

Really, so I can use one cube of these per 750ml PET bottle? I think I'm using 2 carb drops per bottle atm.
