I bought 2 of these kits yesterday after reading this topic and having my mouth watering
Just few questions........
I have 2.5 kilos brewing sugar and a 500gm pack of spray malt so is it ok to split this evenly with the 2 kits or would the spray malt then be no good as a smaller quantity
If its no good then I will use a kilo of sugar and a spray malt and in the other a kilo and half of sugar
I will make 20 litres with each maybe 19 as I want to be able to taste it and dont want it like gnats piss
After just doing a quantity of wine I know my cupboard where it will stay is about 21 degrees so maybe 8 days in there and then will rack to carboys but should I add finings or leave to settle naturally
I also though of omitting the yeast that came with it and adding a champagne yeast as it is supposed to be a very light lager, am I thinking right doing this or shall I just use the kit stuff (Forget this one I just read up on it)
I also have yeast nutrient so shall I add or just go with just the kit stuff
I will bulk prime after racking and have a quantity of 500ml coopers bottles but would 2 litre plastic lemonade bottles be ok to use also
