Coopers DIY Beer 23L Brew Kit

Can I use dextrose in place of the brew enhancer and the carbonation drops?

Ha ha! Bloke didn't stop smiling throughout the whole video.

and dont use adelaide water kills your beer,home brand spring water 30 litres for about 12 dollars.

Coopers this is a new low with this fermenter! I have been brewing for 25 years and thought I would give it a go with hesitancy as its clear and i love the idea of watching the ferment! First lacto infected beer I have ever had....No seal, no airlock like this goes against everything we know as brewers AND A REALLY BAD ENTRY LEVEL KIT FOR NEWBIES!. Stop trying to be fancy you cant brew in an unsealed fermenter with no airlock unless you are educating brewers in how to brew sour beers. I have never had a scoobie growing in beer after 2 weeks, like I'm making beer not Kumbottcha!

By the time U pay for your beer U Mose well pay $20 for already made

I've done 2 brews with this kit, currently on my 3rd and it's worked a treat every time.

finally got my kit. will start it up soon.

My is sinking to the bottom is that bad ?

Chlorine in tap water evaporates fairly quickly, let your water sit for a few hours first and the chlorine will vent out

Seems too complicated. Much easier to just mix Vegemite and a bag of dried noodles into a mug. Add water and wait. The Vomitoxins just add flavour.

Whats the alcohol percentage after brewed?

I've used a coopers brew kit before to make pale ale. It turned out real nice

Staunch, I love coopers. Supporting Australian businesses that are owned and operated by and for Aussies. This is the last big brewer like this and thank god the best. Love coopers.

hi guys just got a kit for Fathers day, i love a pale ale or hazy ipa, what do you recommend?

My friend gave me one of these she didn't want and I am so confused by there being no airlock. This video explains nothing!

Crickey, guaranteed disaster impending if you follow this

Firstly, I'm a mcicrobioligst, cleanliness is not stressed enough, wash your hands regularly whilst doing a set-up.
Be careful how u open the can, try to sterilize your can opener. When inserting the Ozzie bottler, sterilize using SS tongs, boiling water and fresh clean tissue or brand new toilet roll tissue. Do not touch with your skin. If u do, wipe down with de-natured alcohol.
I have never done s spec grav test in over 45 years of brewing. Always let your batch brew for a minimum of 12 - 16days. Use an airlock brew system too. More advice to follow, in part 2.

Further advice, for those whom, for whatever reason, cannot use sugar drops for gassing. Make your gasser solution 220gm dextrose in 200ml water & boil for 5 minutes, cool in the frudge.Using another steriized brew drum, decant your brew into the 2nd drum, with the cold gasser solution already poured in. Use your sterilized bottler tube for decant. Stir after decant. Bottle off your 23 litres, into well sterilized green or brown glass bcttles.
Use the gasser drum to immediately start your next brew, as it is already sterilized,
and ready to go. QED

Adjunct, sugar drops are useless unless u have 375 & 750ml bottles. In Indonesia, for instance, 330 or 620ml botols. Hence the 2 drum system is a must to guarantee accurate gassing measurement. Bob' your uncle & maybe your dad. 😂

Could you put it into a steel keg instead of bottles?

Must live in Tasmania because all tap water in Australia is contaminated with Chlorine and "Fluoride Aluminium processing effluent".!

In Brasil, Coopers beer is a sucess!!! Please, make vídeos in Portuguese too!!!

just bought your product. The extract. i have been making wines for years. lets see how this goes!

Doesnt say anything about how much sugar, or how long to expect it to finish fermenting

My beer always is vinager.

If use hot water to clean the FV carefully , is it good enough to brew beer or I must use clean star stuff to clean everything first. The coopers kit do not have anything with the clean detergent with it. Thanks.

Hey @Coopers Brewery, you mention if it’s too foamy you may need to de-gas it. What is the best method to do this? Thank you

I drink what I made in 1/2 hour
