How to Brew Coopers Australian Pale Ale with 7.2% Alcohol Quick & Easy!

[@neileyre6019]

Im just brewing some of this. Bottling on Saturday morning. I’ve been looking for a VB equivalent, but not so easy to find in the USA. I really liked VB when I was in Australia and also Tooheys. Just a recommendation, Coopers English bitter is absolutely fantastic…and being a Yorkshireman in NY, it’s very welcome. Great vid Moussa!

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

Thanks for the message Neil, if you have time let me know how it goes. My next video on Coopers home brew will be how to make their 'Golden Crown Larger' which is from their Thomas Coopers range. However, I can do some research from my end and find out which beer is closest to VB and possibly make it the following release later this year if not early next. 😂 I was just thinking, which beer I was going to make next, good timing. 👍

Bottling went very well, only took an hour, I’m improving! I had all my flip top bottles pre sprayed with star San and capped, shaken and left overnight. All I had to do was pour out pop in a carb drop and fill. I’ll leave them for a week to try one but normally I’m finding it’s 3 weeks minimum for them to really get tasty. I got 46 bottles(16floz) .

Hi moussa I just wanted to say Thankyou for this video. I ordered everything you have in this video all the way to Vostok station in Antartica (I’m here on a research mission for the Indian government). We have temperature controlled rooms which I set to 26 degree plus a heat pad and I brewed this beer- it came out at 6.9% and we enjoyed this beer with 5 friends on the same work mission as I. We played cards and enjoyed this beer thanks to you. When I get back home to India in 2 weeks I will brew this again for my family for our festival of Diwali. Thanks sir 😊

[@gcsmowfo]

I usually stretch it out to 25 litres per brew and it's perfectly OK, I've been doing that for years. Also I don't use plastic bottles only glass I find it tastes better in glass. I don't go to as much trouble as you do in regard to yeast, sg and temperature etc. I just keep it very simple and I get good results. Home brewing should be cheap and easy, if it's not cheap and easy it's not worth doing it in my opinion. 😊

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

That is spot on Glenn, about the cost factor! I get so many people asking me to make complicated brews that cost heaps if you don't buy in bulk! Which I have done with my mate Bill West & Dr Penna. The video title was 'How to Brew from grain'. You are obviously very efficient after doing it for a long time, but would you believe that there are people that have failures due to simply mistakes or shortcuts. To the most part, for this reason, being a responsible youtuber, I feel obligated to explain in detail what the manufacturer recommends. I really value comments like yours, and if you are okay with it, I would like to do a quick write-up on your successes on Our Community Post if you are interested. Plus, put a couple of photos in it! But no pressure! My email address is [e-mail]

Hey mate long shot. I’ve brewed coopers lager Just wondering what temp range you have going for this when it’s ferminating and then when you’ve bottled it? Many thanks

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

That is a good question. The standard yeast that Coopers supply for their Pale Ale ferments between 21 to 27 degrees celsius. However, I used Kveik Ale Yeast, which can be brewed between 29 to 38 degrees celsius for very warm climates. In this video, the beer brewed around 33 to 34 degrees celsius by memory. After bottling, Coopers recommends to store the beer around 18 degrees celsius for their standard yeast, but I am not sure the temperature that you need to store brew when using the Kveik yeast! However, I stored it at around 20 degrees, and they still turned out great! I hope this helps!

[@damo250f]

Mornen Moussa, I bottled my Australian pale ale this morning. The only difference i did to your brew was i used US-05 for the brew. I brewd it at the US -05 temp of 22dc. Took a few more days to settle on the hydrometer. Took 14days all up to do its thing and wow does it smell and taste good already. Bit of kick to it to. Og at 1049, fg 1.000 with 22 liters of for brew. 👌 ill save the keivek yeast for summer. That way i can keep brewen all your round no worries. Cheers again bud.

@@damo250f Hey Damo, sorry for the delaying! I was using Brigalow's Sodium Metabisulphite Sterilizer which needs to be washed out before using. However, I will be changing over to a different product which is 100% Chlorinated Trisodium Phosphate which I purchased from Country Brewer. This is still a sterilizer but is a lot faster acting and can be washed off much faster than Brigalow's product. As a precaution I will also be using a Liquid Sanitiser which is Phosphoric Acid which is sprayed on and is used without being washed off as you mentioned. The reason I am changing is to speed up the preporation process and make life easier. I hope this helps Damo!

Hi Moussa can youtell me how many days the heat pad was on for this brew thanks.

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

Good question, Glen! By memory, it was okay for the first two days as the yeast was starting off, but then the temperature dropped, which normally happens around then. So I put the heat pad on the 3rd day, and as the brew stabilised and settled down, I then put the blanket on to keep the temperature at around 33 degrees celsius. How is yours doing?

Hey Moussa, G’day mate! thanks for the reply! Actually my brew is done per the pack but…my yeast kept going so I left it for a full 3 weeks, the bloody thing is still pushing out some co2. I think it’s slowed down enough to bottle tho…don’t want any bottle bombs! I use old brown Grolsch bottles with one carbonation tablet per bottle. I then tend to leave it for another three weeks in the bottle before cracking one. I’ve tried the English bitter which as I said before is truly fantastic. The brew A which is also really good. I want to get my hands on the India Pale Ale which Coopers have on their site here but it’s out of stock and I’m not sure if it’s still in production…it says it’s in the style of the motherland ipas so as a Pommie meself it should be hit. I don’t know if you blokes get the other refills etc that we get here. In the US , Coopers bought out MrBeer which has a load of different beers mainly for their 2 US gallon little brown keg, but many available in 5 US gallon too.(I keep pushing metric where I can! But they’re stubborn). So in the cupboard yet to brew and all 5 Gal..I have a brown ale called Churchill’s Revenge, Coopers real ale, Day after day IPA(which is a clone of Founder’s day by day) which I’m brewing on Sunday morning, and finally a ESB . ..all the above being from Coopers /mrbeer. I’ve only just this year (May) got into brewing but lovin it. 🤓👍🏻🍻might move into whole grain next year but my time is limited…so at the moment extracts and partial mash kits are my limit. Looking forward to more vids mate; keep up the great work and keepin it real. Seriously, if you haven’t tried the English bitter give a go mate!

Hi, what does the sleeve actually do? I have a coopers kit but it didn’t come with a sleeve.

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

That's a good question, and yes, you don't need the Krausen sleeve or collar as it's known as to ferment your brew. It's basically to allow for the foam to rise that can sometimes get quite high depending on the type of brew you are making and the temperature you are brewing at. However, the Co2 will escape from the fermenter using eitger the collar or with just the lid.

[@richardweston4493]

@@quantumhomeimprovements cheers mate and thanks for the reply. I think I prefer the older coopers fermenters with the large diameter screw top lids. These new ones don’t seem to seal that well. I can only assume that it doesn’t need to be that tight a seal. I also agree that 2-3 months in the bottle is a terrific age for the coopers pale ale.

[@JimJam1072]

hey mate, I just discovered your channel, great content. I have been watching a few how to brew videos and a lot of them recommend not using the yeast provided in the Coopers tin saying it is poor quality. what is your opinion on this? do you think changing out the yeast makes a noticeable difference? thanks.

[@quantumhomeimprovements]

That's a very good question. In my later videos, I do change the yeast, but mainly due to the temperature depending on whether if it's hot or cold. There are so many yeast on the market that are specific for taste and temperature, but the Coopers yeast still works well, I found. However, the big secret, which is not really a secret, is the preporation before brewing. A lot of people who start out take poor advice and only sanitize the equipment, which is okay but may have a huge impact on the result of the brew, depending on how thorough they clean everything! You don't want residue of bad bacteria. People have shouted me down on this point, but every brewing company manufacturing beer will tell you the same. Sterilizer and sanitizing are very important step for to make a great brew! I do like to use Fermentis yeast as an alternate but as I mentioned, there are a lot on the market. I hope this helps my friend.

Great walk thru on modifying Coopers Kits. Going to have to give that a try come summer. How about the reverse, having to brew in much colder environments. Are there recommended yeasts that will work in the colder temperatures? Where I am living we get some serious winters, currently it is -34C outside which of course effects inside the house bringing temperatures down to +15C to +17C…. Or is the only solution to use additional heating on the Fermenter itself.
