Pilsener? :ph34r:

Say what? If you mean my recipe, i want a sweet-ish malt to carry the Hops. Not to mention its currently cheaper than JW Traditional Ale so why not? It's not that out of place, after all, people use Maris Otter in anything and everything so using pilsner as a base in an pale ale or IPA isnt anything 'strange'.

I recently made a killer pale ale with pilsner, carapils and a touch of munich, nothing more. Went down supurb at a party and had a great recption at the BJCP course.

That was enough evidence to me that using it as a base malt in beers other than a pilsner is worth while experimenting with. Who knows, with that amount of hops, i might not even know its pilsner! Ive also heardof guys using JW ale as their only malt for a pilsner. Sound funny? Not really.
 
Nah. Just Cracking myself up.

Sorry :icon_offtopic:

Its to do with another thread.
 
Double brew day tomorrow.

HLT full and on a timer, grain crushed and in the tun.

First up is another simple german pilsner, this time with munich instead of vienna.

70% wey pils
30% wey munich I
Bittering with nelson sauvin
Flavour/aroma with NZ Hallertau Aroma
WLP833 german bock yeast ( i havent used any other lager yeast since TDA gave me a sample of this!)
Straight rainwater

Then a single hop IPA to test out centennial, a hop i haven't used before.

Its the same grist as i used for an all challenger IPA earlier this year with 1469 instead of 1026

98% TF FM MO
2% pale choc
Centennial at 60, 25, 10 and 0
Wyeast 1469 - west yorkshire
Good old Adelaide tap water

TDA

Hi TDA,

Your efficieny shouldn't drop at all using Rye. It absorbs/retains more water than regular grain, so you generally need to sparge with a little more water.
With just 500gms in there though, you shouldn't really need to make any changes from normal.

Cheers Ross

Nice simple brew today, hit all my numbers :)

Although batch 100 a few weeks ago went like ****, another wheat wine that started to burn with 20 min to go on the boil :( 3rd time this has happen with an +80% wheat beer. Im thinking a lot more particulate matter gets through the sparge and settles on the bottom... hopefully batch 100b goes better .

To top it off, I've been asked to brew a Gluten Free beer for someone for Xmas... Checked out the LHBS today and they want $42 for a 2.8KG unhopped extract kit....F**K that for a joke!!!!
