VIC-Xmas 2016 Case-Swap Recipe (Cocko's place)

"wtf, let's just have a crack with the knowledge it'll probably **** up", then why the hell not.

Ahem! See Post # 10 in this very thread....

Edit: Things just got "complicated"...

Everyone immediately scrolls up to post #10.

Maybe it was just me.

I reckon we sort out the type of brew first, then work out recipe. There are recipes available for all of them. I have some in BeerSmith, but not on me...

Agree. Don't need to see it/them yet, just so long as someone has the recipes to go with later.

Are you saying we should get bad haircuts and listen to crap music [emoji185]
Only kidding!
I'm down with flared pants but that's about it.


Otherwise are you saying I should loosen up and push the boundaries; or that others should be less obsessed with getting complimikated and just make a great beer.
Apologies for being a bit of a thickee on this one [emoji52]

Cocko has spoken, Tactical Nuclear Penguin it is!!!

We could at least make the base wort first, then cube it and bring our cubes to the next winter swap, leave them outside to freeze along with ourselves, then decant the stronger liquor off into another cube, wait another year and repeat until we get to the desired strength.

Dex FTW!!

I'm as easy as my mum, TBH, you guys decide - no stress here.

Well if we are going with your mum, we know she wants big...

Go for the triple-decocted Inter-Continental Ballistic Nuclear Pengiun with a home-made candy syrup. Parti-gyle the second runnings into a side-boil.

At the conclusion of the main boil & cubing, transfer the side-boil to the main boiler & assume 10-13% utilisation from the "spent" hops. Calculate your extra bittering additions & any late-hops on the fly - go on - guess at it, you can do it.....!

I shall pull-up my deck chair & giggle a lot.... :lol:

[Mardoo]

Well, it's true that we haven't had a go at decoction on the big rig yet

Decocted Dunkelweizen perhaps?

 

[technobabble66]

Set up all the extra cooking pots on the fire for decoctions?
Let's go old skool!!

seriously?!! If we're going to that sort of extreme we need to throw in a double reiteration as well, in which case we could have 2 side boils caramelizing before we get the main boil underway.

Time to look for a bigger kettle

 

[MartinOC]

I believe Idzy may be looking at this possibility...

 

[Nullnvoid]

I believe Idzy may be looking at this possibility...

Of course he is why is that no surprise

Has he got his dream esky yet?

 

[MartinOC]

I have no direct knowledge of such things.

If he does source a swag of bigger kit, it will change the whole dynamic of everything that has gone before (*******!)... :blink:

Actually, a better way to do it and encourage everyone to put their 2c in:

Clearly i don't know how to use a phone or how to copy and paste. You get the idea though.

 

[technobabble66]

Best if you can copy and paste the latest list.
