I am almost done drinking my first batch of Coopers European Lager. I made newbie mistakes with the temp and most of my green batch had off flavors. I learned from my mistakes and have temperature control under control (for ales for now, next lager will be attempted when snow falls). Some of my 1st batch bottles came up kind of green while a few were perfect. There was one bottle that I had the other day that was just perfect. I guess it was what you would call a session beer, it was so crisp and smooth, like you can drink 3 of them in a row and ask for more. Anyways, despite all my mistakes with the 1st batch I want to make a comment about Coopers carbonation drops. They are really really good!!! I mean the carbonation that I have in some of my beers is amazing. I like carbonated stuff and this stuff gives it a kick. Here is a pic of one of the last remaining bottles. As you can see carbonation level is pretty pretty good. I hope I will have the same results with switching to priming sugar which is much cheaper then Coopers miracle workers. I think Revvy might agree with me that between these drops and yeasties there are not that many miracle workers. Let them do their thing and they got it going on
