What would you use a Kg of corn sugar for in making beer? Corn sugar in
home brewing is mostly used for carbonation after bottling. For a 5 gal.
batch of beer, 4 oz is typically used.


It was the draught kit
http://www.hamiltonhopsandgrapes.com/Coopers%20Beer.htm its a concentrate
from a can so you have to add a lot more sugar.


OK, I would suggest you use the dried malt extract instead of corn sugar
with the canned extract. You will get a maltier beer that will be OK.
