Brewing a double batch of golden ale today for a camping trip at the end of the month.

You would have thought i had brewed this recipe enough not to have a challenging brew day but.........

Old timers moment, lost count of how much pils malt i had weighed out so i took a stab and added another kg.

Didnt have enough caramunich so made up the weight with caraamber.

Pre-boil SG was 10 points higher than what i wanted so some quick number crunching and it got diluted back down closer to desired OG. i was doing a double batch with a conc boil so i add 10L of boiling water at FO anyway, had to throw in an extra 5L to bring it down to a more reasonable OG and the keggle was so full i couldnt whirlpool.

Had the old man around for fathers day arvo tea and it ended up sitting in the keggle for 90 mins before chilling.

After all that, sample out of the chiller was nectar! :chug:

Might have to take double the number of hydro readings to get thru the extra 5L........... :icon_cheers:

Yardy, missed that one... it sounds very TTL ish but I always use Fuggles first followed by Styrians and had never thought of doing it the other way round, how is it turning out?

Off the the parents for FD lunch, hope to knock out a basic house Hefe-weizen this afternoon to be on tap for the 26th Brewday. 50% BB Pils, 50% BB Wheat, WB06 and one banana .

Brewing this tomorrow due to having a extended nanna nap after the FD lunch. HLT loaded and ready to go, marga ready and willing (banana frozen ).

 

[Scruffy]

on a whim i just bought:

7kg of golden promise
half kilo of aromatic
half kilo of wheat malt

i also bought:

a pack of nelson sauvin
a pack of amarillo
a bag of cascade

i know the thread is titled what are you brewing... so, what the fec should i do with it?

...i love this game!!

 

[buttersd70]

golden promise + american hops, together, makes Butters a saaaad panda.

 

[Scruffy]

nelson it is then...!

and render a few litres of the lightish wort down to xxx mls?...

Don't panic mr butter sir, i have nz goldings, first gold and some styrian in the freezer...

and 1968.

after all, it is Thos Fawcett...

 

[Scruffy]

golden promise + american hops, together, makes Butters a saaaad panda.

technically, the Aromatic is Dingemans...

...and you could argue for the NZ Amarillo because the wheat is Barrett Burston (well, they're nearly aussie)

i keep changing the recipe anyway, so watch out as mint and oak chips creep in, then feign surprise as throw in some chanterelle mushrooms, brew at 30C and finish it off with Brett...

:huh:

 

[buttersd70]

Phew.

Actually, I have had bber that has both us hops and GP...but the hops aren't thrown at it willy nilly, and you still get a nice malt backbone, with the lovely GP flavour. It's an amber that's very much not to style.

Well, the GP would go cracking with any of the hops in the freezer....I've had all styrian GP bitters, and it's a luverly thing. I haven't used the aromatic...but reading the description, I'm thinking it might go very nicely with the GP in a best bitter...maybe, 5-7% (ish) of the grist?...
