Rookie mistake.

[Silver]

Been a while since i last brewed a beer and decided i'd ease back into a routine with a kit and kilo. Coopers aussie pale ale and 1 kg dextrose. I neglected to take an OG reading. If anyone has a reading for this, be much appreciated. Have searched interweb for last 2 days, no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Hey matey, would need to know the volume as well.. No way of knowing without

If you made it up to 23l as per can instructions it would probably only be around 1040.
I seem to remember it being about that.

note: old fart memory - probably wrong.


edit: found notes on Coopers pale with 1Kg of BE2 had OG of 1039 but don't know if the 23l
in my notes meant made up to 23l or added 23l of water.

I did the same brew 2 weeks ago. I used DME and not dextrose but my reading was 1047. Hope this helps

Was that 1kg DME for 23 ltr batch?

You will be looking at 1038 - 1040 just about all Coopers kits we do come in that window, 1004 is perfectly acceptable to bottle at, we have bottled at 1006 and 1008 before without issue.
