What Are You Brewing III

[NickB]

RDO (well, technically an LDO - Leisure Day Off) today, pumping out a double batch of stout with what I have on hand, and have decided to do another sparge of 33L, and add a kit of Morgans Blue Mountain Lager that I have from a year or so ago to the kettle, then hop the shit out of it with US hops....

Hey Jyo

Thanks looking forward to see how it goes.

So far i've done out a couple of batches with this grain bill and I'm going to knock out
a couple more only chaning the hop bill.

Cheers Rob.

Never had a saaz hopped pale ale.... I have a pack of NZ Riwaka D Saaz to use up - would it lend itself to an IPA?

 

[NickB]

Finally cubed up my 'Light American Brown Ale Hop Bomb'... Looks like I hit around 1.045 OG with the kit added to the boil. Went with 50g Cascade, 50g Centennial at 10 mins, and another 50g of each in the cube. Will see how it turns out, likely ferment with US-05.

Cheers!

Just getting the gear out to put this down, Cal Com recipe from BCS with a couple of minor changes, I really liked this recipe last time I brewed it, so did a few other people.

So what is the go with the toasting? An oatmeal stout is on my imminent to-do list.

First time I've tried it, mate and only my second stout. It was suggested by another brewer, so thought I'd give it a go. I didn't go overboard, just gave them a bit of colour. Should be interesting to see how it goes.
Cheers.

Cheers for the recipe - have plugged into BrewMate so on the list of brews to do. Have everything on hand but columbus at the moment not magnum so will probably swap these - only 1% alpha in it from memory.

Strike that - will put it on tomorrow. Was going to do a Stone and Wood style Ale but keen to give this a crack.

jyo is on the money - you have to toast the oats, fills up the kitchen with a flavor similar to Anzac biscuits...So delirious!

Perhaps you could do recipe with actual weights format (which auto include the percentages) as opposed to just the percentages. easier for those without program.

Brew Mate is free, you should hop on it. You'd be able to tweak recipes you find to suit your system with ease.

Hey R,

Weights are irrelevant because every Brewer has different Efficiencies, Batch Sizes and processes etc
by displaying a Grain Bill by percentages you would be able to replicate the recipe with your system :icon_cheers:

Hope this makes sense

Cheers Rob.
