I store mine in the freezer to be sure. If you don't have room in the freezer, use an air tight container in a cool place.

Blah, blah , blah, lasts 3 months, blah, vs 12 months uncrushed, blah stale bread blah, fresh blah



LordEoin

you mean citra?

try 1 can LME + either a hop steep or dryhop 20g of each - to 20L

LordEoin

2 cans would end up at about 7% at 23liters and leave some residual sweetness. It'll work fine, if that's what you're going for

Nice thread and good reading material.. Will give it a go in the future :).


coopers has some (hacks) recipes on their site :) http://www.coopers.com.au/#/diy-beer/beer-recipes/overview/
If you can make soup then you will also be able to make a decent beer!
