stronger lager

kevconnell50 · Oct 29, 2012

hi guys, I've not been doing home brewing long, and always use a lager kit, I was just wondering how to make it a little stronger, but not spoil it, any help would be appreciated, thanks guys.

Brew it short..reduce the volume from 40 pints by adding less water
or
add some spraymalt
or
add extra sugar..but this is likely to end up with a strong but otherwise poor quality 'thin' beer

Add more extract or some sugar? That's really all there is to it. How much you need to add depends just how strong you are looking to make it.

More extract = more malt. Up to a Baltic porter strength.
