30gm black patent
20gm cara-aroma (all I had left)

Wyeast 1768
Just brewed mine on Monday too Barry. I believe these beers would taste excellent through someones beer pump...

4.4 kg Maris Otter Pale
.500 kg Caramunich® TYPE II
.35 kg Extra Special Mysterious Roasty Toasty Buscuitty Browny Nummy Nummy Num Nums Malt
.15 kg Pale Chocolate Malt
.014 kg Black Malt
22.0 g Target (10.1%) - added during boil, boiled 60 min
20 g Willamette (5.0%) - added during boil, boiled 10 min
20 g Fuggle (4.8%) - added during boil, boiled 0.0 min

I used the PC strain Thames Valley II yeast.
Consider my pants kicked. I'll get onto that pump then eh?
Our recipes look very much similar - where did you get your inspiration?
Jamil. Tweak on his southern brown - for malts I can't get.
He uses mostly crystal 80 and a bit of 40 - I can't specifically get those so I manage with tweaked amounts of Bairds dark and light.
He also uses special roast, for which I used whatever cara-aroma I had left and the small dose of black.
I'm pretty happy with the grist, mash hit all the right notes - smelled amazing.

Gonna share what that nummy nummy num nums is ? ;)
Crap, better get onto something for this also, when is the next WBC at hallertau?

Also, this ESMRTBBNNNN malt sounds intriguing Jo ;oP
Yeah - I was gonna keep it a secret until after the competition considering there is still quite a lot of time to brew. It is a malt that will set my beer apart from anybody elses. I got it from liberty brewing - they're the only ones who sell the stuff... so I guess it's not the biggest mystery anymore... but the malt is still special... and buscuitty... and toasty... and nummy nummy num nums.

The shindig is on the 22nd of May.
Sweet as, will pencil a brew in for Anzac day, should give me enough time!
Does anyone know if Pride of Ringwood can be substituted for Green Bullet in a Coopers sparkling clone?
I doubt it to be honest. Pride of Ringwood has a very unique taste, utterly essential for those aussie beers IMHO.
Yea, but if you just want a bittering addition then I guess it's ad good as you'll get ?

What's the recipe Daron - I reckon you'll get as much coopers character from the yeast as the hops
Coopers Sparkling Ale
