Hi everyone, I went past Czech Republic a few days ago and met some locals that gave ma a good address, it's a brewing university and research facility, they do as well have products ready for shipping. So I guess this must be most welcome here... http://www.beerresearch.cz If any of you...

Hi there, I'm trying that cooper's wheat beer can again, this time with the exact recommended enhancer, nearly at the end of fermentation and it tastes amaising. But shall I add a few galaxy hops, as I still have some left over, to make the taste more flattering? Or shall I keep it original...

Hi there, It seems that I've been having a lot of yeast in the bottom of the bottles on my new batches. Me think that it should be due to summery temperatures causing the yeast to reproduce a lot. Shall I use 3.5g per 23L instead of 7g? Thanks in advance. .z

Hi there, Last winter is has been really easy to get my brews to term and the sanitizing aspect was not really an issue, now the summer is on its way and I keep getting infections in my batches. Just a quick dip in boiling water is not good enough anymore and I am now soaking all my bottles and...

Hi there, The previous topic about CMC is 18 pages long, no time to read it all, so from memory if anyone can help. Here is the deal, I tasted the wort close to finish (I added the recommended sugars off course)... I would like this brew a little with a little more zing, someone is...

Hi there, I am interested in knowing if anybody has a recipe for white beer that works good. I like things simple, so my plan is to get a can and possibly some kind of fermenting sugar and hops.. let me know if you can help. Thanks in advance. Z.

Hi there, I would like to know if brewing a can without adding fermenting sugars makes a light beer. If so what percentage of alcohol would it make roughly out of a stndard 1.7kg can. Thanks in advance.

Hi there, I have some of my longnecks that makes a loud bang when I open them, but most of them don't.. I use carbonating drops so I don't really understand what is happening there. Any ideas? .z

Hi there, Just bottled this batch and look an that green stuff mixed with the yeast at the bottom of bucket. It does not look like something I'm used to see. The bucked has been sanitized with Napisan then thoughrly rinsed and did not open it since. There was 2 types of yest in it, the home...

Hi there, I just tried to flavor a Lager with green tea and it seems to be blending real nice. Any recipe anyone knows based on green tea flavoring? My mate tried a tea spoon of coffee in a few bottles and the taste is really interesting. It may possibly be more appropriate with a stout...

Hi there, I have brewed lately with 2 cans at the same time. 1 Morgan's Stout chairman selection with S23 yeast and 1 Home brand lager kit, with yeast provided. The temperature variates roughly between 10 and 22 degrees here, and I am specifically brewing lager because of the lows. My...

I can of coopers' aussie pale ale with a kilo of local honey, 12g of cascade hops half way infused at 100c 30mn (i have actually cracked the tea bag and threw the whole mash in there) Still green only 1.5 week in bottles but very good taste, I really like that one. z:/

Hi there, Brewing stout this week and having a sulfur smell escaping from airlock is that normal? .z

Hi there, I just acquired a couple of out of date Bringalow cans for 5 bucks each. The dealer told me to chuck out the yeast and I bought a pack of Fermentis lager yeast 23 to do the jpb. My plan is to cultivate it and have enough to brew those cans. So has anyone experienced the Bringalow...

Hi there, Got that yeast from my last Pilsner batch sitting gently in my freezer, I scraped it from the bottom of the drum. Can I use that in my new mix? If so how much of it, it's like a goo.. Thanks in advance.

Hi there, Done my first batch with spring water a while ago and the yeast picked up nicely with provided quantity. Now I'm brewing with local tap water and it seems that the fermentation in wart is not going so good. The local water is actually barely drinkable because of high amount of...

Hi there, I'm wondering is there are some recommended yeasts that works best for cold weather a part from lager yeast. I like lager and pills but just wondering if there is something else out there I could play with. Cheerz

Hi there, A good mate of mine gave me this sachet of white beer yeast imported from north France. Can I use it instead of the provided yeast on the Cooper's pale malt extract? Will I get white beer out of it? .z

Hi there, I was tasting yesterday a brew (Cooper's Aussie pale) hat has been in bottles for only a short time... 5 days. And noticed that the taste was really poor. Because of the fact that there is very little fizz, the taste buds are not numbed by the bubbles and therefore you can taste the...
