Hi there,
I've just started using a secondary fermenter and i'm going to try and spice things up a bit for my next brew, possibly by adding hops 'cause I like a hoppy beer. My question is how should I go about this with minimal risk of messing it up. Do I boil the hops first or should I just throw some in the secondary? Also, what sort of hops should I use? I'm using a Coopers brewmaster IPA this time around - Obviously theres already some hop extract in there so I don't want to make it too hoppy.
Thanks
