In the recipe we're using today, we're going to make a
lightly hopped clean Ale. This recipe is similar to APA or
American Pale Ale but not a strong flavor in Hops or
malt. This is a really good beer to share with friends and
family who drink more mainstream beers.
We're going to be using a tin of Coopers, Australian Pale
Ale. Instead of the yeast that comes with it, which is a
pretty good yeast anyway, but it's just not enough of it,
I've got a Safale USA-05, and this is a premier brewing
yeast. That's really clean Ale yeast. It's a great all-
rounder for a lot of beer style.
There's 11 grams in this packets. That's enough for
us what we're doing today, so we're using this. We're
going to keep the Coopers yeast, just for the backup, in
case this one doesn't work.
The other ingredient we're using is a kilo of light malt
extract. This is going to give a nice malt profile to the
beer. We're also going to add some Hops. Hops we're
going to use is Cascade. When we go to bottling, we'll be
using priming tabs. They look like lollies. They are
measured amount of sugar, soon you add them to the
bottle at the correct rate, they're going to give you the
right amount of sugar for the perfect carbonation; so you
might get gush in beers, you might get exploding beer
bottles, and you might get flat beer either. They will save
you time and energy, and it's something I recommend you do.
When we use cheap products always make sure they're all
fresh and smell fresh - really about making good beer that
you're proudly to show off to your friends and family.
This might mean spending a few extra bucks but when
you break it down per beer, it's nothing really and you get
such a better bear at the end of the day, so I've got

ingredients on here, we're now we're going to put it all together.
