Notes

Liquid malt extract is Coopers hopped stout kit 1.7 kg so which contributes around 30 IBU to final wort. That is, the IBU indicated in recipe summary only accounts for 20 g Goldings @ 20min.
All malt extract other than 750g light dme is added as a late addition steep to avoid excess caramelisation from the low volume boil, and allow more utilisation from the Goldings.
Yeast can be recultured from any Coopers Brewery commercial beer. I used yeast harvested from 2 x 375ml bottles Coopers Original Pale Ale to make a starter.
For an all-extract version, see my Black Cat Bone.
These recipes attempt to capture the essence of Coopers Best Extra Stout (ABV 6.3%)
My actual brew was
O.G. 1.060
F.G. 1.017
Apparent attenuation 72%
ABV 5.7%
