Looks good Tony, all those fresh flowers.
 
Half way through the boil of:

Mentally Challenged Ale

Ale, wheat, cararoma, roast and straight challenger to 37 IBUs.

Farking boiled over too.

Slurry of WLP 002 in one ferm and Wy1315 in the other. With a good slurp of first runnings in their starters to get em excited!

Cheers

Brewing an Aussie wheat beer today. Sparging now :)

Using fresh 08 crop NZ flowers all the way. God the smell good. I keep sniffing them and i thing these two hops will work very very well together. The spice and peper for the B SAAZ and the floral softness of the Hallertau.

Cant wait for thins one to be on tap.

How come you're using US05 Tone?

because its easy, convenient, and i like the results i get from it. Its clean and firments fast. eats everything and leaves the beer nice and dry, which is what im after with this one.
It doesnt mute the hops like some pommy yeasts do.

I do prefer the 1272 as it has similar properties but adds a little something of its own to the beer. I used the starter i had of 1272 in the chipottle ale yesterday and its putting away nicly at 19 deg.

I was going to use some 1469 but i want the beer dry, crisp, hoppy and clean.

I also like just sprinkling a pack on the bottom of the fermenter and racking the cooled wort onto it. Its so easy.

cheers
 
Im brewing an all Newport APA. Have a heap of it so im gunna try it. Around 6% vienna, around 2% each of cara red, and caramunich 2 for some malty goodness, and the rest pils. Of course, i'll be using US05

Yumm!!!

What kind of tweaking have you done Yardy, the version you had on tap was pretty near to perfect in my opinion.

Thanks mate, realised at weigh in that i didn't have any Chocolate malt, I was going to sub it with Black malt but I wanted to try the Golden Oats in something so they got the nod instead, it's a bit bastardised now but we'll see how it goes :)

cheers
