Coopers Australian Pale Ale

The Coopers range of home brew beer kits all  contain  1.7kgs  of premium quality Australian barley.

This Coopers Australian Pale Ale kit produces 40 pints of smooth, fruity pale ale with a floral aroma and crisp bitterness. It needs a kilo of sugar or brewing sugar to be added with the water. With 1.7kgs of malt extract, it will be a slightly lighter, thinner bodied beer than most of our beer kits made with 1.8kgs.

 

The can suggests using 1kg Coopers Beer Enhancer No 2 rather than sugar in order to produce a richer flavour. Coopers Beer Enhancer, like Muntons Beer Enhancer, is a mixture of dried Spraymalt and brewing sugar. The Muntons one could be used as a direct replacement, though it may darken the colour slightly. As an alternative, you could use ½kg of light malt extract and ½kg of brewing sugar, or 1kg of liquid Light Malt Extract.
