Put this one down on Friday evening and it is now WELL under way...bubbling like a you know what. Still waiting for it to exit stage air lock though?
In the end i went with 25g Cascade @ 10 minutes and 10g Galaxy @ flame out boiled up with 2 litres of water along with 200g of LME.
Stay tuned!
2 x coopers Lager with czech saaz and 200 grms carapils.
A great session beer. Clean and crisp with US05.
4 weeks in bottle.
Speaking of the Stout/Dark toucan, how does this recipe look?
1 can Coopers Stout
1 can Coopers Dark Ale
1 can Coopers Dark liquid malt extract
25 grams Fuggles dry hopped.
Or Goldings? I have no experience with Noble hops, is there a commercial example where I can taste the differences, or is it just much of a muchness?
Yeast? I wouldn't mind this brew finishing a bit sweeter so was thinking of using Windsor, but then I was thinking I could use Nottingham with say 300gms(?) of Lactose to sweeten it slightly. My aim here would be to balance some of the bitterness, I don't mind a bitter beer (love the Coopers stout in this weather) and will probably be leaving this bottled until next winter anyway, so it should balance on its own.
.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated, cheers and beers :icon_cheers:

I've done a few now because I have a dedicated toucan keg but I think my favourites were:
2x coopers stout can
1kg dark dried malt
25g fuggles hops
15ml brewcraft liquorice extract
safale s-04 yeast fermented 18C-20C
What ABV did this attain? Got one in the fermenter now and I forgot to take a SG reading... <_<
