Hi Guys
Just preparing a recipe for my first ever double batch for kegging.
Plans thus far:
2 x Coopers Real ale
2 X Coopers BE 2
1kg Light Dry Malt
Water to 45 - 48 litres
firment in 50 odd litre fermenter till finished
Rack to 2 x 25 - 30 lt fermenters to settle out
Rack into keg onto priming solution of melted brown sugar (315g = 7g / lt @ 45lt)
Purge with CO2 (if I have it set up buy then) and lett mature like a bottle till I get the rest of my gear sorted out.
At racking was planning too dry hop (Just picked up 50g Brewcraft Goldings for $5 from dodgey brew shop, is this reasonable or did I get shafted once again?)
Any other suggestions (I know I could substitute about 6kg cracked malt steeped at about 65C for an hour or so for the 2 tins of coopers but I'm not currently set up for much more than K & K and I dont have a good grain supplier handy)
Cheers
