What Are You Brewing - 2014

[lukiferj]

Will be no chilling (slow chilling in the pool). I'll only be boiling the 60 min additions today. The 0 min additions will be added later.

 

[winkle]

These days I put the 0 minute additions in the cube, works for me.

 

[lukiferj]

Haven't tried that yet. Might give that a go with an APA soon.

no wheat
I tasted my mates brew then modified the recipe.
mates brew was close to lashes on tap

 

[Tahoose]

Fair enough, I'll have to see how mine turns out then might have a crack at your recipe, see what the difference is.

Mine was 75% ale malt , 25% wheat

Bittered with POR, Amarillo and Nelson Sauvin at 20mins

30Ibu's

Didn't bother with brewbright for this one as 150 lashes isn't clear anyway.

I have some willamette now aswell, which i think is used late in 150 lashes

Not sure if I should be brewing tonight as that bourbon and this IPA are drinking too well, but I need to be ready for when my kegs arrive.

And really it's Friday... so who can blame me.

Just got my HERMS setup at the new house after waiting for a gas adapter from the states for 6 weeks :/ . Mash this one in tomorrow.

Couple of questions. How does the Mash schedule look? and I'm going to ferment at 18 degrees, oxygenate the wort well but split a smack pack between the two fermenters to 'stress' the yeast a bit. Does that seem reasonable? Also using RO water and going to treat the mash with lactic acid and CaCl2 until calcium is at ~50ppm
