Hi,
My first coopers lager batch went perfectly well however this time it did not. I did exactly the same as the instructions told me for the first kit however this time I used the brew enhancer 3 instead of 2. I also used half a teaspoon of sugar for each bottle instead of 2 carbonation drops. In the first batch I actually added the yeast part at the bottom of the fermenter to each bottle (I thought I had to) but for my 2nd batch I made sure to avoid that.
I also cleaned the fermenter by rinsing with hot water for a long time after its use and using vwp cleaner and giving a thorough rinse as well as using starsan before use (I did exactly as I see people do in youtube videos etc). It has been in bottles for almost a year now and it still has not gotten better.
I am very confused what had caused this, the only possible explanation I could think of is the amount of sugar I used when bottling because everything else is pretty much the exact same as my first attempt.
Please help! Thanks!
