Grumpys DOUBLE HOP PALE ALE by LX @ 20, Apr 2005
This was my first masterbrew.I made this with a can of coopers draught and the yeast that came with the tin. I racked, cold conditioned and bulk primed. After 2 months in the bottle it is now a crisp drinking ale with plenty of hopps. Would be a perfect beer to wash down the dust after a hot day in the sun. I will be making this one again for sure. (I would like to try this with a lager yeast and see how it would turn out.) Alex

Coopers Stout by LX @ 09, Apr 2005
I used a simple recipe which never seems to fail. 1 can of coopers stout, 1 can of liquid dark malt extract (black rock) 10-15 mls of licorce essence. Made to 20 litres sg 1050 fg 1014, brewed around 20 degrees. Racked and cold conditioned. Bulk primed with 100g brown sugar 40g castor sugar. At 3 weeks has creamy head and tastes like the coopers! Cant wait for a taste test in 3 months!

Coopers Australian Pale Ale by LX @ 13, Feb 2005
Was my first brew after a long break and only my third one in total I just used the coopers kit and the coopers 2 enhancer. I used the yeast suppied with the kit, and brewed at between 22-24. SG 1040 FG 1010. No racking or cold conditioning and I bottled and primed with castor sugar. After two months it has matured well and although I dont think it tastes much like the orginal it is a one of the best simple kit and kilo brews I have tasted. Other yeast and added hopps would make even better
