Just wait until you get cornies.

As I can only achieve temperatures around 18 to 20degrees at the moment I am stuck brewing using ale yeast so Coopers kits are all i know of on the lager front as these are ok at 22 degrees which is ok for me.

Do you know of any other good lager kits which happily brew at 22 degrees?

any help appreciated.

Otherwise Im brewing ale until Autumn and Winter.

Its not the kit that you need to worry about.. ask your local home brew shop what lager yeast they have. Some require 8-11C which is way out of my range at the moment but plenty of the Belgian lager yeasts (bottom fermenter) work 11-22C.. so if your hitting 18 most of the time you should be fine! Just keep and eye out on a hot day. get over 20C and you'll get some off flavours.

Also remember its called lager because it should be stored for along time. If you use a lager yeast rather than the supplied kit ones then you can bottle condition at low (normal fridge temps) but for at least 5 weeks and beyond if you want really good tasting home brew. Thats why I brew lots.. because by the time its ready.. there is still some left to actually drink!!

I don't think it's the filling that's the problem.

addictive isn't it

If it's coming out of your ears you're doing it wrong.

If it's coming out of your nose at a rate of knots accompanied by diced carrots - well, that's another story.

I've only got 3 full and two half Cornelii, no plastic kegs, 110 bottles and no beer fermenting. Must order more grain.

I've got a few bottles of wine though.
