Thanks :P.. Next time i will purchase at one of your stores save alot of cash that way...but oh well I'm just happy i finally got it.

I read someone put 250g in 1 galon and it turned out good so i think this should be just fine

your correct on all accounts..(and yes i knew about the ale yeast) I do have a question what hops would you add to a coopers lager, to keep that good flavor balance. cascade? (sorry don't know that much about hops yet)

hrm thanks fr the new place to buy it :)... I hope i didn't screw this brew up :P, but that is the exact specs that coopers uses for its brew enhnacer #1 so it *should be fine but i guess we will see.

60 buck for 10 lbs.(bought in the helath food store in my town).. and only use 400g per = 6$ a batch... 11$ for my coopers kit (on sale) 6$ maltodextrin 3$ on dextrose (approx) --------------------- 20$ for 5 galons XD well approx 4.5 galons ( i only fill with 20 liters of water) thats...

I would add priming sugar mix and add yeast give it 12 hours then bottle, just to get yeast everywhere

1 galon? 250g thats waaayy to much.. sorry i just re read that. max you should use is 80g tops for 1 galon

use up to 400g maltodextrin avoid dme in light or lauger beers, as all you will taste is the malt.

+1 to rev i do exact same

no

I personally think DME has no place in coopers lauger, coopers draught or any of their lighter beers. Lighter beers get bombarded with a strong malt flavour if even 500g is used, making the brew OK but, only ok.. i will report back on what I think of the maltodextrin when its complete.

The reason is the DME in BE2 is not suitable for lauger brews... thats exactly why I am stocked about the maltodextrin i bought... BE1 and brew sugar do not have dme... and are recommended for use with the coopers lauger ..

if your curious maltodextrin is what is in the coopers brew sugar, the cooper brew enhancer #1 and brew enhancer #2...if your confused..lol.. it seems nobody has tried this (or i cant find anyone who has but, me)... so yah.. making my own brew enhancers for half the price XD

Hehe i figured not many would understand or comment but nobody?
