Hey tj, have you tried the Crosby #6 yet? I'd be curious to know your thoughts and any comparisons you could compare it to?

Hey tj, have you tried the Crosby #6 yet? I'd be curious to know your thoughts and any comparisons you could compare it to?

Haven't tried it yet hence basically going single hop. When this is ready feel free to drop round for a schooner or I can swing a bottle or two your way if you prefer.

Made a pale ale with the #4 a few months back and I wasn't that impressed, hoping these bad boys will be more up my alley.

Let me know when it's done mate and I'd love to have a sample. I've got some #4 and planning using it in my next pale. Google results all point to Amarillo / Cascade combination. Maybe we can do a swap in a few weeks?

Fermentis S-05 SafAle American Ale



Notes
-----

The 0 minute additions are split into two each, flame out for one lot, then
 once wort gets to 80c for the second lot. At 80c, add hops and sit for 15 
minutes, then restart whirlpool and chilling.

 

[manticle]

Apa when I can gee myself up enough to get out into the frost and fog.

Possibly uk bitter directly after. Both maris and a smidge of crystal, whatever appropriate hops I have left, 1187 in the bitter, denny's favourite in the apa.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Last minute change to a German Pils which quickly became a Bohemian Pilsner when I realised I didn't have enough Hallertau.

Budvar mashing schedule 50C for 20, 60C for 40 and 70C for 40.

90 min boil, all Saaz, 80g @90, 20g @45 and 20g @20.

Apart from leaving HLT valve open when I removed the hose, been a smooth day thus far. Even afforded myself enough time o head out for a quick take away coffee during final mash step!

 

[fletcher]

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Sloooooooooow fly sparging. Weyermann Premium Pilsner even lives up to its name being that touch lighter. There's even 7% carapils in this and still pale as anything, happy days [emoji3]

 

[Reman]

"Misc - IPA Water profile achieving 300 ppm for sulphate"...

pratty you're going to turn into sulphate hahaha
.

This was from a HBS I haven't used before, my efficiency is set to 75% so it's not overly high. So I have a feeling that it may be a milling issue, previously if I was anything I was over the predicted OG by a couple of points.

And for this IPA I was hitting 150ppm Sulphate, so 300ppm would require so fairly impressive adjustments!

 

[manticle]

My bitter will be turning into a stout.
Got some roast malts cold steeping, weather here is stout weather.

Possibly won't get time for back to back batch but at least will mash the stout once the esky is free, mash out at 78 -80, run to cube and boil tomorrow.

Not my preferred approach but current outside temps are like the fridge so I don't expect any drama.

 

[manticle]

******* element shat itself.
Need to finish 2 brews on stovetop.
