Would anyone have any idea on the SG of my coopers stout? Its just the original stout brewed to 20lt with a bag of muntons beer enhancer.

How big was the bag of enhancer?

I'll assume 1 kilo and estimate your OG @ 1038-1040

Most single can kits tend to be around that OG when a kilo of fermentable sugars are added.

I think Geezah may have missed that you've brewed short to 20lt. In my experience this would push the OG up to around 1042-1044.
