Standing up for the Aussie Bottler
My next brew is to introduce the lady to the joys of homebrew. She's not a big beer drinker but she loves Tsing Tsao and other lighter asian style beers such as Tiger. She can't tolerate a lot of wheat and we think it may be the rice basis for a lot of these that makes them more easygoing for her.
While I generally prefer strong maltier styles such as stouts and dark ales, I don't mind the occasional Tsing Tsao either.
I found an online recipe that is meant to be Tsing Tsao clone or thereabouts and I'm tweaking it a little.
Currently I'm thinking:
1.5 kg Morgans extra pale LME
1 kg LDME
500g maltodextrin
500g -1kg (not sure which) rice flour
250g crystal malt (steeped)
20 Tettnanger@ 60
10g Tettnanger @ 10
20g Sterling @ 30
10g sterling @ end boil
Rice water (boil 2 cups rice in 5 L water) till rice is soft. Strain. Discard rice
Irish Moss
60 min boil including rice water.
22L
Any feedback appreciated.
