Hi mate next time you do a brew pale ale I find around 18deg is fine and makes a great beer. And 1010 around the 4.5% mark. The ales are a good beer. So hope tastes good.

I average 1-2 a night but on weekends you could easily add another half dozen to a dozen depending on what im doing.

Hi guys I use carb drops at the moment a few years ago used to use sugar but have recently lost my measure. The coopers carb drops say they can carb up a bottle in 2 to 3 days is this true. I have never been keen enough to crack one open and give it a try. At the moment I am struggling to find a...

Hi guys I have just started bottling in glass and only have enough glass for one brew. If anyone could help a bloke for a good cause it would be appreciated. Cheers Micka :)

Although My starting gravity reading was 1046. 1040 seems low.

I just bottled mine yesterday with bh2 in it and fg was 1008. I reckon the 1010 will be spot on. If you've tilted it back and forth and sediment is sitting on bottom i reckon you'd be fine to bottle.

Just Bottled the pale ale yesterday, haven't made one yet but it looks ok. It was first time putting in glass bottles my misses bought me a capper the other day. The only problem is I have way to many stubbies and only a handful of longnecks. Looks like Im gonna have to go and drink a few. I...

I will have to go to grains and grapes thats the closest HBS to me its a bit of a drive thats the only thing, but I do want to start doing full mash. So I will grab some better yeast.

Hi mate Im just wandering do coopers use an ale yeast for the draught beer. I made the draught not an ale. I just put down an ale today though and am not worrying about the heat pad all should go well. Ill see what it tastes like in another week or so its been in the bottle for a week now. I...

Thanks mate thats great

Just curious when the beer is bottled what sort of temp do you keep the beer when your carbonating it.

About to brew a coopers aussie pale ale before I try to get into doing the whole grain mash thing. I cant wait to get started.

[Cheers mate I was about to put down a pale ale today so Ill give it a go without the pad. I checked the temp in the brew cupboard and its sitting around the 20c mark but the temp does drop lower over night. I haven't check what temp but Ill chuck a blanket over top of it. Thanks micka

Hi guys I want to start racking and have a spare fermenter what are the steps to racking and is it worth doing. I would love to have a clearer smooth beer. Show me how to be all I can be. Cheers guys Micka

I kept the brew around 27c the whole time in fermenter. I use a heat pad in a cupboard.

Does anybody know any bottle recycling depots around the Werribee area.

Yes for a few days so I tilted it back and forth didnt start fermenting again so I bottled it. Strange eh. Oh well hope it still tastes ok
