Hi all
So I've recently bought a Coopers Kit to try and make a few decent brews.
All my previous brews have been K&K and less than impressive in the taste department.
Supplies
Coopers lager 1.7kg tin
Brew Enhancer 1
Dextrose
Light dry malt 1kg
100g amarillo hops
Small pack Cascade hops
Safale US-05 yeast
8L pot (for extract boil)
Brew
I'm thinking about doing the kit, with 500g ldme (boiled with 5L water for 20mins with some amarillo and cascade), 500g dextrose, and the safale yeast. The details I'll probably work out in the extract spreadsheet I got from here.
What sort of hop schedule will give me a nice flavour and aroma?
