Coopers Heritage Lager

[l7edwards]

Hey All,

Have a can of heritage lager hanging around and am going to put it down in the next week or so. Just wondering on hopping advice? The recipe so far is:

Heritage Lager can
500g LDME
500g BE2
12g Tettnang
12g Hersbrucker
Coopers Lager Yeast (from a used Coopers pilsner can)


Was thinking of making it purely tettnanger, however i have never used it so am unsure. What do people think? any advice would be greatly appreciated

I would use the whole kilo of BE2, I put that one down about 4 months ago and it is slightly thin with a bitter aftertaste. I used 1kg BE2 + 500 DME, no extra hops and the kit yeast. It tasted like an ashtray for the first 3 months of its life but has come good recently.
