Aluminium Does Not Kill You

[jayse]

Ok here is a little or should i say big recipe i did on chiller's aluminium system.
With the burners he found on a downed space craft. :lol:
It took 3.5 hours all up so with that i went a found a downed space craft myself and now have the intergalatic space craft engines as my burners also. :lol:

The main player to this porter i believe is the TF amber malt which is very very chocolatey.

Sorry for those that hate the full promash report but here it is.

Better clarrify,
JWM roasted malt is a black malt ie black patent NOT roast barley.

It is a mighty fine drop.

Easy to see why it was such a popular drink.

Guys, what does munich add to your ale. Is it just a greater maly flavour and bit of colour. I have noticed that alot a recipes need say 1kg of munich.

I ask why not use them munich as the base malt?

 

[jayse]

Good question and yes munich would make one hell of a base malt for this beer.
It is not really used for any colour just the malt flavour.
This porter is in a long line of porters i have been doing and just changing one or two things at a time.
One of the things i have been doing is just using 70% ale malt and 15% munich as a base and messed around with roasted and toasted malts for the rest.
So far in all i have been using cararoma as the only crystal malt addition.
Anyway munich malt is a malt i just ussually through some into most brews at what ever percentage i want, usually around 1kg for more malt complexity.
In a general craft brew approach using some character malts for that extra flavour is what makes them stand out amoung the big commercial examples.
The main character malt in this porter is amber.
But munich malt is a good malt to add to most beers for that extra depth, flavour and character.

Munich is a must malt to have in your malt stash.
Cheers Jayse

yep, i have been thinking of added munich to most of my ale recipe where it dont matter what colour. I'm just trying to balance the malt flavour, with my hop flavour. i havent really experiment with malt flavour.

i was thinking about using an all munich recipe. trying to work out the cons and i can really see any? ^_^

Though i'm sure there are some.,.

Not kidding the TF amber is chocolaty! The RIS I will bottle any day now is like concentrated essense of dark bitter chocolate.

If buying amber malt make sure it is the Thos Fawcett stuff

PS Jayse, try adding some brown malt to your porter grists

 

[jayse]
