Going to make a couple of Helles today and wheat beer with 3068 yeast, just not sure what % wheat to add. 50% too much?
Bewed my first dark beer today. A scottish oat meal stout. And had my first boil over!
82.7% Maris Otter
5.1 % Chocolate
5.1% Crystal 80L
5.1% Oats
1.9% Roast Barley
45g Goldings @ 90mins
200mls slurry of WLP 028 Edinburgh Ale yeast
Also bottled my 80/- and harvested the WLP 028 yeast.
Dougal - got a jar of slurry for you. Just message me when it's good to drop off!
I just looked the WLP 028 up. Sounds like a good yeast!
I have plans on a brown, but am keen on a Porter/Stout and a Scottish Ale sometime soon too.
Didn't get my whit done yesterday due to a few refitting issues...
Boiler is running now :p
3kg wheat
2.5kg pils
0.5 munich I
1.2oz coriander seed
zest of two lemons (off our first lemon tree)
20g cascade 40m boil
40g cascade 5m boil
3068 yeast or belgian farmhouse, still undecided... Never used the 3068 yet. Anyone have any comments on the yeast I'd be happy to know before 11:30
Brewing a US Blonde this morning with the C-Blend hops from Liberty, fairly hoppy, all from 20 mins or later. Mix of Pils/GP and a touch of Munich and Cara Red. Keeping it simple with good ols us-05
I did an IPA recently with them. Mostly late hopped. Is a nice blend!
Brewed an American IPA exclusively with the C-Type blend from Liberty...250g in a 18Lt batch,
2g/L at 60
6.5g/L at 10
5g/L Dry Hop
Ended up winning our Hamilton Brewers Association American IPA Comp, so was pretty pleased with that...
Only have 1 bottle left unfortunately, loved those C hops...lots of Pine/Citrus and Resin!
Wish I had got more from Liberty!
Yep had too, weather too good.. and no howling wind to battle with.
Just went through the box of left over grains and made up the following...
Style - Marzen Maybe for the Summer.
1.5Kg Malteurope Pilsner
3.5Kg Bohemin Pilsner
520gr Vienna
500gr Munich
200gr CaraMunich I
Bittered with Northern
Flavour/Armoa - Pacific Gem & East Kent
Will pitch with WPL820.
Was meant to mash for 90minutes but a last minute request from the missus (supermarket) meant the mash got over 2 hours to itself.
This cold weather has got me hankerin for some stout, so I brewed this today:
4kg MO
0.7kg Wheat
0.55kg Roast Barely
0.2kg crystal 130
24g Southern Cross 60min
Safbrew s-33
24L, OG 1.056
Not quite sure where I am stylistically with this one, hoping to get lots of coffee flavours with a touch fruit and ester.
