malted i will get over to my workshop/brewey and get that formula for you
remembered that i posted it on another site
this is a reduced version of my 400 litre batch but i am sure that if followed it will be as good
"Formulation" for "Dusty Nelson"
Target knockout volume of 22 litres
Target gravity 1060 or 15 degrees Plato
Based on system extract efficiency of 70%
Desired Plato 15 degrees
Kgs = 15 x 22 / 70 = 4.71 K/gs
Potential alcohol @ 75% attenuation = 1060 1010 / 6.6 %av
Grain bill 4.25K/gs of pale malt (Kirin)
.112 K/gs of wheat malt JW
.336 K/gs of crystal malt JW
.022 K/gs of black malt JW
.112 K/gs of rye wyermann malt JW
Mash water 10 litres from 2.0 litres to one K/g of grain
Sparge water 19.6 liters of scheme water
let it stand overnight to liberate chlorine and next day adjust Ph with food grade phosphoric acid to 5.5 Ph
This will be a stiff mash and must be stirred during steps
Heat water to 56 degrees and dough in hold @ 53 degrees for 20 Mins
Raise to 64 degrees and hold for 60 Mins
Raise to 71 degrees and hold for 10 Mins
Raise to 81 degrees and transfer to sparge vessel
Run to kettle when particulate has cleared
Sparge with ph adjusted water @ 77 degrees
Boil time one hour after collection of all wort into kettle
Hop selection
22 Grms nelson sauvin @11.5 % AA in boil for 45 Mins
35 Grms nelson sauvin @11.5 % AA in boil for 10 Mins
Yeast selection US 05 @ 76% attenuation
Ferment @ 16 degrees for approximately 5-6 days
Transfer off yeast after completion of fermentation into Co2 flushed fermenter and add 35 Grms nelson sauvin @11.5 %
After completion of fermentation rack of hops into Co2 flushed fermenter
And cold settle @ 2 degrees for two weeks then transfer to
Co2 flushed kegs and force carbonate
Dispense under pressure via Pluto tap and enjoy
To convert this to 400 litre brew divide 400 by 22 for multiplier of 18.8
Then use to multiply the above grain and hop bill
this brew is slightly different from the last one as it was kettle hopped
Then the last hop addition was put into primary fermentation
After some discussion with fellow brewers it was decided to cut kettle hopping and to dry hop in secondary or conditioning time
The current brew has apricot fruit to it followed by some citrus to bitter profiles
Lovely nose
Colour is deep copper
Head magnificent with very good lacing

All comments welcome
good luck malted and wallace
gregs so i sit around and post from miss quotes from mags you tosser :icon_vomit:
