I've also noticed that Coopers has some different recipes for their kits on their site:
http://coopers.com.au/homebrew/makeBeer.php
If you want a very lite summer beer, simply add 1-2 cups of dextrose instead of 6 cups (1kg) to the Coopers lager kit. You''l get about a 3% alc. beer.
True, less sugar the better the beer. 1kg of dextrose in these kits makes it taste almost like cider.
20-21C works good for the Coopers dry yeast for fermentation, higher temperatures makes the beer fruity/funky tasting. I use Nottingham yeast whenever I can. Cleaner taste.
I've done about 6 batches of Coopers and am ready for the Canadian Blonde kit in a few days for a simple summer beer.
Cheers.
