i'm having another punt at a 10 min ipa tonight, boiling now as i type
90% joe white traditional ale
10% caramunich III
1.060 mashed at 66
60 ibu challenger @ 10 mins
recultured coppers yeast
thats a lot of hops @ 5.6% aa !
this came out too earthy, firstly i think the yeast has restrained the hop aroma, and its too much caramunich iii
less of a lighter crystal and a yeast to favour the hops more is on the agenda
Maschenbrau brewed up a galaxy version of this - and he no chills. Turned out fine, had all the characteristics of a 10 min IPA - big hop aroma and flavour. So, if you are umming and erring about whether to do it or not, the results should turn out fine!
Cheers
Phil
OG 1.081
95% Wey pilsner
5% Wey Carapils
340g Bravo 11.3% @ 10 min (140ish IBU's?)
Mash at 64 degC
...is the plan.
Brewed the above 10 min IPA of home grown chinook hops with Smurto and Boston today. 4 100 gram sachets of b saaz like home grown chinook hips added into the boil in the last 10 mins is a sight to see. Boston was taking some happy snaps that he will hopefully post up in this thread.
Were expecting an efficiency drop from 70% to 66% but ended up with 73%. When using so much flowers in the kettle we were expecting to lose quite a bit to them, however, bostons mastun that we used as the kettle allowed us to squeeze every drop of wort we could...only had roughly 2 litres lost to deadspace. A very successful brew day.
We also partook in some rather tasty beers as well...Victoria golden ale and the 60% rye roggenbier...not to mention the commercial beers we shared. All went down very nicely with the sour dough bread, coriander hummus and Rosemary whitebean and artichoke dips.
What a day!
Just mashing in now 95% JW Trad, 5% Crystal, BIAB. To that will be added 200g of Amarillo @ 10 mins. Can't wait. :beerbang:
Almost got lost forgetting to calculate all that extra trub loss from 200g of hops. Used a hopsock (actually a grain bag which needed to be that big to allow for the volume due swelling) and gave it a good squeeze at boil end to lessen the loss.
Worked well, just hope it doesn't alter the IBU's that much. :beerbang:
I put mine straight in the boil (215g, half flowers, half pellets) and I now wish I'd used a hopsock (I've got one too!). I spent the length of the draining-to-the-fermenter time scraping the sides of the hopscreen. I wish I'd taken a picture - wait - I haven't emptied it yet, so I'll take a photo of the trub.Almost got lost forgetting to calculate all that extra trub loss from 200g of hops.
