Hey all, Hope this is an acceptable place to put this topic. Just looking for some advice. I'm trying to replicate the Kopparberg Lemon and Lime lager. The other half loves it and admittedly it's a nice summer drink. Anyway, I tried adapting a Lager Kit from LoveBrewing. All seemed to go well...

Hello, Thanks for accepting me to your forum. Seen some great advice posted. I’ve been a lager drinker for a while, I tend to like the European lagers like a Staropramen. So, I had an idea to get a kit and have a go at making my own. I live north Birmingham so went to the Hamstead Home...

Brewed a dortmunder export recipe a few months ago. The taste was fine from the fermenter but since it was bottled a strong cider/green apple taste sprung up. Any ideas how to prevent this in the future or how to remedy it. Used two packs of Bohemian lager yeast by the way.
