Cooper's Dishwater Draught Beer

Brew Day
Starting Gravity of 1.045

Flat Beer

Tip #1: Fill the bottles on the dishwasher, easier cleanup!
A family that brews together, stays together!



Okay, this is our first "easy" kit and our final practice run before our 1st all grain batch. It is a Coopers's Draught Beer Kit, it is fairly simple and is said to produce a beer similar to BMC (Budweiser/Millers/Coors). Also, I broke the hydrometer, so I can't record all the scientific details to figure out alcohol percentage. But it did have a starting gravity of 1.045. This went into the bottles on the 26th of December and we brewed it on the 15th of December, so 11 days in the primary. The only thing I really want to improve on our process is the chilling. We will probably invest in a wort chiller or build one from Home Depot before our next batch, which will be our first all grain.
