Took the hit last night and bottled my two batches of lager.
First one is 9.8% and the second 7.1%.
For those that did not read my other post (wherever it went!) these two lagers are a bit of a forkup. I used two MSB kits (each kit makes 11.5 litres) and forgot that no extra DME is needed! 2 Kilos in the first and 1 Kilo in the second. Was in a hurry (which is why I just used tins in the first place - love them!) and was not paying attention. That will teach me.
This was me trying to make a session beer! Gonna be a short and exicting session. I now have 120 bottles of strong lager. Good job I am a fully qualified pishhead and have a couple of mates that will glady help me along the way.
...now I just need to get more bottles as these will be tied up for a couple of months I think. Drink on MacDuff...
