Challenger recipes

[sbond10]

As my wife's being quiete strange yesterday she bought me hop seeds. Today 100g of challenger hops have turned up anyone any pointers for a recipe I can stick them in I can only do can recipes and maybe a very small extract so any one got any ideas where to put them into

I've only used Challenger as a bittering hop so far but it's supposed to be a very good all-rounder http://www.themaltmiller.co.uk/index.ph ... roductId=2

Coopers Australian Pale Ale (APA) is a very good base kit for hop additions, because it has a low bitterness and low hop flavour/aroma, so it really allows you to taste a particular hop.

Here's my suggested recipe:

1.7kg Can of Coopers APA
1kg of Light or Medium Dried Spraymalt
Brew to 20L
10-20g of Challenger boiled for 10mins
10-20g of Challenger steeped for 30mins from 80C
Ferment with kit yeast @18-20C

I normally rinse out the kit tin with boiling water and add this to a large stainless steel saucepan and then to up to about 3L and bring to the boil.

Cheers
