Hi all,
I am gonna buy a new Irish Stout kit. I have done a Coopers Pale Ale (dissapointing) a Coopers Wheat( acceptable) and a brewferm triple (still aging, but looking good) . To change a bit I would like to buy the best Irish Stout kit...get something as similar as possible to...
That is besides the malt coming with the kit. Coopers recomments 500g Light Dry Malt + 300g Dextrose, so I used 1.5LME wheat instead of the 300gr dextrose.....
Thanks for all your comments!
Hello all,
I have just started with home-brewing and I have started from the very beginning, using kits.

Hi agan, so one week passed and nothing really happened.
When I open the fermentor the colour is still quite dark (almost like red wine) but clearer in the glass...wheat beer colour.
The taste is very light....cannot taste any wheat there...its been more than two weeks in the fermentor ...
Hello all, I have a coopers wheat+1.5 LME wheat+0.5 DME light fermenting for 10 days and I have a couple of questions
1- I have noticed that the colour which was getting lighter at the beginning (in the fermentor) got a lot darker in the last 3 days. Strange because it looks darker on the...

The amounts are these:
1.5Kg pre-hopped Standard Coopers
I have:

They suggest:

As beginner...
