coopers lager

[mo1971]

Hi.
I have just made my first batch of coopers lager. i done exactly what it said on the tin but i just have a couple of querys.
What i have made tastes fine but it is a little cloudy and at the bottom of all the bottles there is like a white residue any ideas ?
Thanks.

I got plenty of that too at the bottom of each bottle of my auzie coopers lager. I thought it was the yeast.

The white residue is the yeast sediment, perfectly normal, and thats what's making it cloudy. Leave it somewhere cool (<10degreesC) for a few days and it should clear, just be careful when you pour it - pour it into the glass slow and all in one go so you don't disturb the sediment at the bottom, I usually leave half an inch in the bottom of the bottle so you don't get all the crud in your pint. Hopefully you should have a crystal clear pint. Hope that helps.
