I have a New World Saison on the go and it will have been in primary for two weeks on Thursday. The SG has levelled out okay. I have to add the dry hops a couple of days before bottling but have developed the habit of cold crashing my beer before bottling. The fermentation temperature of the...

I bought this stuff at Morrison's today, it says its from concentrate and raspberry pulp with no preservatives. Is it a good idea to make cider from this and what do I need to add? Anyone tried it?

I have a Cooper's Mexican Cerveza which I fermented with Saflager S23 yeast. primary Fermentation at 14°C for three weeks Racked to Second Vessel and put in the fridge for lagering at 2°C My understanding is that I should leave it there for a number of days/weeks before bottling and...

Following various threads, I've got that waiting for the yeast to clean things up at the end of primary fermentation is a good thing. Patience is my friend.... My understanding is that cooling the beer at this stage will allow more of the cloud to drop out of suspension before secondary...

Bought this limited edition kit in December as my fifth brew kit. I made in to the instructions supplied, initial aroma and taste of wort was sweet and heady. The yeast was pitched with the wort at 24°C and it was fermentated at 20°C for 15 days (bottled at 6 am on Christmas eve). Bottled...

As posted previously I started brewing with no prior knowledge and only the kit available at my local (48 miles away) brew shop. I bought the Coopers starter kit with PET bottles and fermentation vessel. Having used the kit now for 8 brews I would like to recommend this as a great starting...

So far I've used Cooper's carbonation drops for priming into glass and pet bottles but now have three packs of priming sugar. The packs are from Young's and Festival kits. So, to the chase, I have a Cooper's Canadian Blonde ready and four mini kegs. How much of these sugars should I prime...
