Thanks fellas.
The rugby stuff
is all foreign to this devout AFL follower. But your recipes sound good.
I've got a tin of Cooper's Dark and will get a yeast starter going today.
I need to get some dark malt extract from HBS. Would 500g of honey be any good in the mix or just stick to the following:
Supplied yeast woken up in a yeast starter;
Can of Coopers
500g LME
500g DME
500g dextrose (open to discussion on this one - i do want it to be in the 5-6% region
)
and possibly 500g honey (is it worth it to make the body rather malty or am i getting ahead of myself?)
And as suggested by Oliver, 15g of Fuggles (though I really dont know what the Fuggles that is, but I'm keen to have a crack
)
Cheers, Daron
PS - Go Roos!
Wife says all I care about is beer and footy... she's right!
