From Coopers Website
To calculate the bitterness of the brew: multiply the quoted product bitterness by the weight of the product (1.7kg)* and divide by the total brew volume (normally 23 litres).
So (590*1.7)/23 =43.6
Colour works the same (though taking additions need to be taken into account so
(420*1.7)/23 = 31
Though my brews rarely get above 20l.
Who's the first to see how much foam this throws up?
