What are you brewing II ?

My first AG, A small 15 lt no-chill batch for a trail to see how it goes.

A little light on the EBC side for the style. Its in the Primary now and smells great. Very easy to do although I will be getting a Burner before the next one to make it easier and to take it outside.

[Jye]

Well I totally missed my OG due to a terrible boil off which is probably due to the hight humidity in Brissy atm ended up with a grand total of 1.082 even after upping the honey to 2.8 kg. Wont end up cracking 10% alc but will come close with the Farmhouse Ale 3726 yeast due to it having over 90% attenuation The Farmhouse Wheat I brewed as a starter went from 1.044to 1.004

 

[barls]

very interested to see how this one turns out jye

 

[Tony]

what sort of flavours does the farmhouse ale yeast produce Jye?

I have a pack in my fridge awaiting duty in Warrens Saison but that sounds fantastic.

cheers

 

[Fourstar]

Just put down a cream ale, Wort was crystal clear leaving the kettle. The tettnang was used just to empty the packet.

Should be sparkling, cant wait for it to hit the keg.

RM, you may want to move your steeping hops to dry hops. Galaxy has a great aroma and the beer is going to be fantastic!

Tony, no tasting reports yet but it ferments like a normal ale yeast. Mine threw about a 2 inch krausen.

Hi Jason
If you tried my APA at the caseswap it was dry hopped in the keg with about 30 g of galaxy and that is pretty much where all the flavour was coming from as the underlying APA was pretty old.

Someone must have hacked into your account

There is a chap named Guest Lurker who made an APA beer with Galaxy?

I cant believe him - next he will be trying to tell me he made a Wheat Beer!! :huh:

Cheers

PS - Will innoculate with 20 grams of Galaxy in the keg.
