Hope you have better luck than I did with this one! It's the first kit in 20+ kits I've done that I had to throw out... Fermented for 15 days came out at 7% batch primed with 100g sugar and bottled. After 3/4 weeks in the bottle they started to taste more and more alcoholic, I mean like taking a...

Thanks for the advice terrym Never experimented with golden syrup before, maybe I'll leave it out of this one and just brew short by a few litres. I ferment all my brews in my hotpress which is a constant 23/24oC Done the wilko cerveza without any bother at that temp so think I'll save my £'s &...

Done most of the wheat beer kits out there & this was the best, Used 500g wheat spraymalt + 250g brew sugar, bottled after 11 days in fermenter. It's just a pity it's a bit expensive for a 15l kit but you get what you pay for. Don't forget wheat beers you swirl round the last bit in the bottle...

Hi, I done a Cooper's Canadian blonde 1kg brew sugar & 500g extra light spraymalt brewed to 23/24 litres +kit yeast. Turned out really well, a real thrist quencher (bud/Coors light but better) could easily be pimped with hopps. Fermented for 12 days, batch primed with 110g sugar and came out at 5%

Took your advice slid Cooper's blonde 1kg brew sugar 500g extra light spraymalt kit yeast 25litres, clean clear beer with no loose sediment Not too shabby for a lawnmower beer
