Last night i made up an ale that included,
Two cans of Coopers Real Ale
500g Light Dried Malt
20g of Ringwood hops
Coopers + Morgans Yeast
Now when i was making it i put all the ingrediants in a saucepan and boiled it up but when i added the light dried malt it just stuck to itself and made a big ball of gum that wouldnt dissolve. How do you add light dried malt so it doesnt do this??
Also the morning after i went to check on the fermenter and there was very little water in the airlock but there was alot of krausen trying to get out. So worried that it might get infected i added more water and now it is bubbling like crazy, when i say crazy its like sticking a straw into a glass of water and blowing continuosly.
Is it all going to be ok?
Thanks in advance, Scotty
