Thanks for your reply. Yes I am doing a partial mash, I live in UK my LHBS does not have it but it is fairly common in gym store etc within a reasonable price for big quantity (2lbs around 5$) I am trying to add a bit more thickness to the head, mouthfeel should be good with DM as tried...

Hi Guys, Next week I am going to beef up a Coopers Draught kit with grains (1lbs Maris Otter and some Quaker Oats) 2lbs of spraymalt light and some hops (Cascade/Saaz) My question here is exactly about the quantity of the last 2, I am planning to do the wort in about 2 gallons of water and...

To be honest i am only looking to keep a better head retention. what would be the right process to follow?

Can i use crystal or carahell as basic? Thanks guys

Thanks. But would do the job even if i don`t have a basic malt? Or do i have to put a bit of my coopers kit malt extract in the water and THEN steep/mash the quaker oats?
