Hi AHBers
Has anybody done this? I was planning to get 25L post boil of 1.100 OG Barley Wine from first runnings then sparge to make a Pale Ale with some specialty grains added. Will mash in 2 x 50L coolers.
My idea is to no chill the Barley Wine and run the Pale Ale through a plate chiller. Ferment the Pale Ale then use the yeast cake for fermenting Barley Wine.
I figured Partigyle would give me a Barley Wine with reasonable efficiency and cubing the BW will allow to build a good yeast colony by fermenting PA first.
Any experience doing this?
Regards
James
