Welcome to the forum.

Sorry,I can't help you with your question as I havn't used the Coopers kits myself. I have moved this to the kit brewing section for you, you may get a better responce to your question here.

The kit came with Lager mix and a can of Lt. malt. Does the Lt malt take the place of the brewing sugar or do i need to also add the brewing sugar to the wort. Sorry if this is a dumb question but i am new to brewing.
Thanks

Not one I've brewed myself, but a bit of Googling suggests that the Coopers Heritage kit may be brewed with just sugar being a 1.7K can kit (not often a recipe for great results) but is often supplied with light malt to ensure better body:-
