Coopers English bitter

[blackerdave]

Just brewed my batch of coopers English bitter and my og reading was only 1040 which I thought was low.
Has anybody done this kit and if so is this reading normal? And what did it turn out like once drinking?

How many litres did you brew it to and what fermentables have you used?

Cheers

21 ltrs, though id brew it a bit shorter than the 23 ltrs which it said on the tin just to see if I could get a little bit more strength out of it and just use 1kg muntons beer enhancer

Mine started at 1042 with a kilo of better brew enhancer,brewed to 21 litres.

Bottled a couple as per norm then fill the corny,this was only 3 weeks ago,cracked open a bottle last week(been in the bottle 2 weeks)
and was very good.
Currently on my second pint and its a cracker.
