Got some leftover Carapils, LDME, hops, yeast, and two new cans of coopers lager. Been 2 months since my last brew and on the last 15L so need to top up the coffers.
So far I have steeped 330gm of carapils and got about 10L of dark wort.
Added 3Kg of LDME to the boiling wort.
Boiled for 20 mins then added 50gm of goldings 6.6% hops at 60mins to end of boil.
Currently at 35mins, and just added 50gm of Hallertau 3% hops.
At 7mins I added 20gm of Saaz 4%
Then in another pot I will mix up 2 x 1.7kg cans of coopers lager goo with just boiled water.
Then I am not sure if I should put it all in one 20L fermenter and end up with one hell of a strong brew, or split into two.
So would this be drinkable as a single batch, or should I divide it up as a double batch?
Not sure what it will turn out like - just adding everything I have and hoping for the best.
I have one wyeast activator 2278 czech pils and 3 S04 packets on the yeast side. Will be using the wyeast without a starter (bad I know).
What to do?
