Just bottled my coopers Australian lager and decided to experiment with secondary fermentation.
added 6g off sugar to 10 bottles, 6g glucose to 10 bottles, 6g light spray malt to 10 bottles and 6g of 50/50 glucose/spray malt to 10 bottles.
All bottles are identical 500ml brown glass crown caps and will be sitting at room temperature for a week then out to the shed to lager for 4 weeks. I will be inviting my mates round (all professional lager drinkers) for an unbiased tasting and will then publish the results.
 
Like the idea of the test :cool:

Please post the results, people often ask what the difference is so this will be a very useful thread :thumb:
 
all bottles are now out in shed, noticed the bottles with sugar and the bottles with glucose are already perfectly clear. the others still have a slight cloudiness. must be the malt content.
 
will be great to hear the differences - if any?
i often prime with spraymalt - however many people say it will make little or no difference to the final taste :wha:
it`s a lot easier to put sugar into a bottle through a funnel then STICKY STICKY STICKY spraymalt!
