Thomas cooper Pilsener

[falafael]

Got this kit yesterday for the missus, has anyone had a go at this kit at all?, and if so, is it a good tasting pilsener??

thanks for all replys

right, made this kit over 24hrs ago, i used brewing sugar to make it, but as for fermenting, its very slow, by now all my other kits have had a good head of froth by now showing!, any ideas??

All fermentations are different, the only real way to check progress is use a hydrometer, did you take an OG?

IIRC this kit comes with a lager yeast and as such lager yeast in a kit beer is much less *showy* than ale yeast :thumb:
So don't panic, as Wez suggested just use your hydrometer to keep an eye on things

fermentation has picked up this morning, with the airlock starting to get some activity!!
Thanks guys
