Thanks for all the input guys. I have mapped my process and can avoid any reheating and am fairly confident that I can achieve a decent 2nd beer. Here's to experimentation! Cheers Adam

Thinner mouth - fine with this as it's a smaller beer Watered Down taste - Dry hops Absence of hops - Dry Hops and I add 95% of extract post boil, so I'd think util. is pretty good. No Flavour - Dry Hops and I'll be adding a top up of steeped grains for flavour Light Colour - I'll be adding...

When you say 'characteristics' what do you mean? Obviously it will be different from the original, but I'd expect that. Such things as thinner mouth feel, paler colour are fine.

absolutely love the Beerlabelizer. adds a really classy touch to an otherwise brown bottle! the trick with the milk has worked wonders too. first two designs:

Afternoon (well it is here) all! I have just started extract brewing and wanted to give my thanks to everyone who has contributed to this forum. It's amazing! Every question I've come up with so far has been answered already and I have learnt so much. I wish I'd found the 'bottling tips'...
