Yeah I get what you mean Blind Dog I do normally use malt extract partial boils with spec grains but just had a cheap kit on hand that's still in date and was wondering what it's made of. Thanks as well Bribie G I'll check it out.

In addition to the question I was wondering about the actual 'kits' such as the 1.7 kg Australian Pale Ale & Canadian Blonde kits. Do they contain some specialty grains eg crystal malt, chocolate malt to help target the beer style? Or are they just bitterred liquid malt extract? Asking because...

I hope it's not an infection but if it is it's not got hold of your beer yet and you are on the right track with cold crashing asap and bottling ect. Could it be that when you dumped the hops in there was some splashing of the beer & yeast on to the side. And if there's been any growth it could...

Hi Rossbaker I'm not a pro brewer or anything and haven't given much advise on this website but feel free to listen in on my 2 cents. With the volume you are going for 500g is a lot of crystal. I normally use between 150-250g of medium crystal in normal 21-23lt brews. Not sure if light crystal...

Thanks for the info Dan, hope it turns out well. I've got a keg that's just about empty and think this will be filling it! Cheers,

Hi Wilkens I am in WA and wondering if this is still for sale? Cheers

Hi Bizenya. looks like the beer has turned out great. I did this same recipe a few weeks ago but unfortunately had to dump it from an infection. I was pretty devastated because it was smelling and tasting great (until it got infected). How would you describe the flavour and aroma now after a few...

Good to hear it smells great going in to the bottle! looking forward to hearing how it mellows with a bit of time. So that colour you have in the glass was from one Amber LME and one Light LME? and you think 2 Ambers would bring out the colour you were more aiming for?

Hey Fiddler Did you end up brewing this one up? if so how did it end up? Cheers,

Thanks for the reply I'll have to get on to this recipe as soon as I have a bit of spare time. Keep us up to date with how it ends up too! Cheers,

Hey mate this recipe sounds great. I am only new here but have a few brews under my belt. Just a few questions as follows What was your steeping process? The hop boil volume? did you add the steeped gain water and all the Dry Malt to the pot pre hop boil? Then what was the topped up total...
