2013 Melb Xmas Case Swap

[technobabble66]

Yep.
I thought Pliny the Elder was selected, though I'm happy with either.

But where are we gonna get all the hops for Pliny the Elder? ... oh hello, Yob

The grain will be easy if everyone just wants to throw some cash in - put the exact grain blend in an order and G&G can mill & bag it that morning. Myself or a couple of others could bring it over ready for mashing. Pity we didn't coordinate this earlier - we might've been able to do it as part of the BB by splitting unrequired amounts.

Is that a preferred option - everyone just contribute cash for both the hops & grain?

Taken myself off list for the minute. Not 100% sure at this stage. Got a few other things I need to focus on.

 

[Yob]

you know... the scaled up recipe calls for 42 kg base malt... what are we mashing in?

 

[technobabble66]

Some dude was talking up his massive, new, esky mash tun at the last one. It seemed to do the job.
Maybe he could bring that baby... h34r:

The only problem is Manticle won't be there to swirl his hairy arms & heat stick in there to loosen the 11 stuck sparges

 

[Yob]

There won't be a metric boatload of oats to clog it either.. From memory it held about 20 odd kilos so would get us halfway.. (ish)

 

[technobabble66]

Yeah, pouring all the oats into one out of 3 mash tuns was probably not a sterling move <_< :lol:

Only 20kgs?? Bugger!

Anyone else got a huge mash tun, then?

 

[lmccrone]

Sadly, due to my globe hopping sister, I have a family Christmas that weekend and will have to be a late scratching. On the bright side it might make the grain bill a little more manageable for you guys.

Cheers

Looks like you guys are going to have a great time with that recipe Just checked the calendar and unfortunately can't make it.

Hope you have a blast.

Hopefully we can have another one in the new year...

Single batch Brewday name/amount

Malt
6kg Pale Mallt x6 = 36kg (name/amount)
270g Light Crystal (45?) x6 = 1.6kg (name/amount)
340g Dex x6 = 2.04kg (name/amount)

Hops

Columbus 99g @ 90 x6 = 594g (name/amount)
Columbus 21g @ 45 x6 = 126g (name/amount)
Simcoe 28g @ 30 x6 = 168d (name/amount)
Centennial 28g @ 0 x6 = 168g (name/amount)
Simcoe 71g @ 0 x6 = 426g (name/amount)

Mash 67' 60 min
Mash out 77' 10 min

is the kettle we are going to be using able to deal with break + 1.5kg of hops?

also, will this need to be adjusted to NC? as in will we move those additions to 60 and 20 and cube hop the 0 additions? that would help with not having to mod the system to adjust for losses..

dunno, just throwing it out there..

Can only join in after I have finished with the BB unless anyone else is attending and can grab a few things off me at the BB?

 

[Yob]

I have the rest of the Simcoe,

I'd suggest that getting the brew started after the BB is getting a bit late, in an ideal world, we'd be mashing in at midday which means milling at 11ish etc, HLT's on at 10 sort of thing...

 

[DU99]

"between 9am and 11am strictly"for bulk buy and it's only a 15min drive..

i have seen in a few posts..vinny has using amarillo in this.also can use ctz instead of Columbus

Will also need to do the numbers to make sure amounts = AA% to balance at 1070 for this to clone, actual amounts may vary a little once we plug it all in.

 

[DU99]

pale or 2 row

 

[Yob]

We grow 2 row here... Pale ale malt... 2 row

 

[Yob]

I don't think the brand has been decided yet.. Happy to go with the flow...

 

[Yob]

What about salts for this? I'd imagine a goodly dose of cal sulphate wouldn't hurt... I can bring that along.
