Hello,
While waiting for my first batch to condition in the bottles, I wanted to get a second brew in the works. Here are the recipe details:
Coopers Real Ale - making 23 liters
1kg of sugar to add in
3.8% alcohol
1006 target final density
I saw a recipe online of someone that changed this recipe with great results by adding the following:
250g honey
500g of DME Amber (18 EBC, Brewferm)
500g cane sugar
Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself here, but was wondering if I can just add these ingredients together w/ the kit malt?
How do I calculate the final density if adding these ingredients?
How do I calculate the alcohol content?
How do I calculate the final target density?
Wondering also if this will drastically increase the fermentation time?
Sorry for the freshman questions, just want to get it right.
Thanks,
dmc
