What are you brewing 2015?

[Weizguy]

@Sponge. Slow and steady. Looks like a great, simple recipe.

Brewed 25/1, but yeast substituted after no-chill.

(American wheat)
Batch Size: 23.00 L Assistant Brewer: n/a
Brewhouse Efficiency: 80.0 % Equipment: Seth - 50 litre Esky and 58 litre keggle
Actual Efficiency: 81 %

Ingredients Amount Item Type % or IBU
2.25 kg Pilsner (Barrett Burston) (3.9 EBC) Grain 50.0 %
2.25 kg Wheat Malt, Malt Craft (Joe White) (3.5 EBC) Grain 50.0 %
20.00 gm Cascade [7.60%] (60 min) Hops 19.8 IBU
8.00 gm Cascade [7.60%] (20 min) Hops 2.7 IBU
15.00 gm Willamette plug (no-chill hops) [4.80%] (180 min) (Aroma Hop-Steep) Hops -
3.00 items Brew Brite (Boil 5.0 min) Misc
1.5 l slurry W1010 - American wheat yeast.

W1010 culture tasted quite dry and tart from the Erlenmeyer flask, but that seems fair since it's a Kölsch yeast (originating from Päffgen, if my sources are correct)

Another double batch BIAB this morning. Trying to work out how much cube hops will give me the right amount of IBUs so have one a bit bore bitter than the other. Using 20min steep in beersmith as the cube addition. Wort went into cube at 85c after whirlpool.

20 min steep in beersmith works wonders for me.

Recipe looks the goods!

While I'm waiting for my IPA to dry hop and then cold crash, I thought I'd do an experimental apple cider. Going to use Belle Saison and try dry hopping with either Amarillo or Vic Secret, depending on what I can get.

Just tapped my keg of a new west coast IPA house recipe. Super fruity and hoppy without being astringent around 100IBU, and has a good malt finish and body. Tasty as.
