Hi Guys,
My first post but have been reading the forum for quite a while. What a great spot to discuss beer.
I have been brewing for the last 9 months and have brewed about 6 of the coopers draught kits with full success. I was in kmart the other day and saw the coopers brew kit on clearance $60 so i got one. In the the kit was the lager kit, so i have brewed it up with BE2 and fermented for 2 weeks. now i bottled it using carb drops and conditioned for another 2 weeks. i chilled 2 bottle for a friday night, poured it in to my glass and it tasted really winey and sweet and noticed it was not carb very well. so i have let it go for another 2 week and now it is more carb but still taste winey. I am guessing that the yeast has not consumed all the carb drops but it should have done that by now? What To Do?
Cheers Ben
