Ingredients

1 x 1.7kg Coopers Lager
1 x 1kg Coopers Brew Enhancer 1
1 x 250g Coopers Carbonation Drops

1. Mix

Dissolve Coopers Lager and Brew Enhancer 1 in 3 litres of hot water.
Fill fermenting vessel (FV) with cool water to the 25 litre mark and stir.
Sprinkle Lager brew can yeast over the surface and fit the lid.

2. Brew

Place the FV in a location out of direct sunlight and try to ferment between 21C to 27C.
Fermentation is complete when the density of the brew remains constant over 2 days. We recommend
the use of a hydrometer to check the specific gravity (density) of your brew.

3. Bottle

Gently fill clean PET bottles to about 3cm from the top.
Add 2 carbonation drops per bottle and secure the caps (use only one carbonation drop for bottles
intended to be stored for a longer period).
Store the bottles upright in a location out of direct sunlight at or above 18C.

4. Enjoy

After at least two weeks, check for sufficient carbonation by squeezing the PET bottles.
Bottles kept unrefrigerated should improve with age.
When ready to drink, chill the bottles upright.
The chilled beer may be poured into clean glassware, leaving the sediment behind.
Expect the alcohol content to be approximately 3.2% ABV.
