I'd be in for a swap /brewday comparison, however I have to work out when I'll be able to ferment it. I put a lager in the fridge yesterday & hope to fill the remaining space with an octoberfest tomorrow (once the starter grows up), then I've got a bock to put on top of the octoberfest yeastcake. So my temp controlled environment will be locked onto 10 degrees for a few weeks. this also means that my fermenters are tied up as well.
Maybe If I bought another 2 fermenters, i could rack into 1 & use the other for the heffe with an ale yeast. As long as these temps stay in the low 20's, do you reckon I could get away with fermenting in the bathroom (it keeps a pretty constant temp)? If so, which yeast? Stu's american heffe, Gav's german heffe, US56 or try a belgian ale blend for something really different. If we're going to do a comparison, I might go the belgian to try something different & as I have an ESB belgian raspberry ale which can go on the yeastcake. What do you guys reckon?
Geez I just realised I need more bottles.....
now for cheap fermenters.....
