Ok so after picking up a 40L crown urn before Xmas and purchasing my first home. I'm finally looking forward to giving BIAB ago in the next few weeks!
For my first attempt I would like to try Dr Smurto Golden Ale, which he was more then happy to give me his recipe that ive attached.
I will be looking to get the grains from Keg King as they are just around the corner and have come up with the following grain bill:
0.8 x Joe White - Wheat Malt (per kg) AU$3.30
0.2 x Joe White - Dark Crystal Malt (per kg) AU$3.85
0.8 x Joe White - Munich (per kg) AU$3.60
2.4 x Simpsons - Maris Otter (per kg) AU$4.45
I will try to use Ians BIAB Spread sheet to help me along the way as I found the Kit spread sheet very helpful!
Here's a link with the reciepe added as it will not let me upload it https://www.dropbox.com/s/omvuehiv0gy2ud1/BIAB_Beer_Designer_v1.3%20%281%29.xls?dl=0
Now down to the brewing steps. Ive read over a few of the BIAB pages and am hoping to get a better understanding
1. Add desired water level 28.8L per spreadsheet , get temp up to strike rate 68.3 per spreadsheet
2. Kill the power, line with bag and add grains, stir with paint stirrer to prevent dough balls and place the urn cover on. Mash for period of time. 90 mins?
3. Raise bag off element and raise temp to 78C for mash out. Is this step included in the 90 min mash temp.
4. At 78C hoist bag over urn to get excess wort out of grain bag
5. Get temp to rolling boil. Lid off?
6. Add bittering hops (Amarillo 15g) and start 60 min boil or 90?. Lid off?
7. Add hops at different times depending on reciepe. 20g with 20 mins to go.
8. 10 mins before end of boil and brewbrite. about 4g?
9. Create whirlpool and let sit for 10mins to help clear the wort
10. Transfer wort to cube for no chill.
11. Add dry hopping hops to cube and let it cool over night then ferment as usual.
Thanks heaps!
