Recipe Idea

[the_fuzz]

Hey Guys,

Just wanted a bit of help on a recipe idea,

Looking in the cupboard I've got:
2 cans of coopers real ale
1 bag of coopers brew enhancer 1
1.5 bags of brew enchancer 2
750Grams of Coopers Light Dry Malt

In regards to hops, i've got about

2Kgs of Chech Saaz
2kgs of Willamette (Spelling)
2Kgs of Cluster
2Kgs of Halluta Herbruker (Spelling - it's the hops from Hahn Premium)

I am going to do a 46L brew, but I was just seeing if anyone had any ideas using the above

I was thinking of bittering with the Willamette and then adding the Saaz with 10 mins to go and at flame out - plus adding some more in the secondary

Any idea's?

Cheers
Mick

I prefer a more bitter hop with Coopers Real Ale (Pride of Riingwood my choice) so go with the cluster if you want to take the advice of a greenhorn.

To do a 46L brew you'd have to use every ingredient listed at the top to get a full strength beer.

I would throw it all in then add:

30g Willamette @ 15
30g Hersbrucker @ 5
30g Hersbrucker dry hopped

By the way do you really have 8kgs of hops?

Yeah Pale, thought the same thing.

That's a hell of a lot of hops. Unless, of course, one is running a microbrewery.

And yes, I have approx 8 Kgs of pellets around here with more on the way. The old man works for Lion Nathan

You going out with anyone?

Does your dad own a brewery?

Lucky, lucky, lucky fella.

[BierMeister]

Your old man works for Lion Nathan and you're still brewing your own beer. Should that tell us something about their beers or what?

8kgs of hops.

I think I feel a new thread coming on...

[Pale_Ale]

Yeah, best ever "police misunderstandings" involving bags of hops!!!

[SpillsMostOfIt]

I hadn't thought of being in possession of a commercial quantity of hops. I was thinking of 'Show us yer inventory'. But that works...
