When I first tried Duvel I thought I gotta make that.

I'm brewing my feeble interpretation tonight.

23l batch
og 1083
30.4 IBU

6kg Wey Pilsner
1.5kg Sugar (added a couple of days into ferment)
15g superpride @ 60 22.1 ibu
30g B Saaz @ 10 8.3 ibu

Single step infusion 65 for 60 minutes.
60 minute boil.

I'll be pitching this onto a 1388 cake from a belgian pale that I'm fermenting at the moment. I'll start at 19 at let to rise up to 26 or so.
 
Nice, was thinking of keg hopping my leffe blonde clone with some B saaz.
 
I love b-saaz. The belgian pale that I mentioned (you could almost call it a leffe blond clone) is all b-saaz.
 
Just mashed in an english extra special bitter. Going for a style akin to hobgoblin but using up my glut of homegrown EKG instead of styrian goldings.

final volume 23L
OG 1.054
FG:1.018

4.7kg marris otter
350g JW dark crystal
150g caramel crystal
30g choc malt

20g fuggles @ 60 min
20g EK goldings @ 30
30g EK goldings @ 20
20g sticklebract @ 10
80 EK goldings @ 5

67 degree mash single infusion for 70 minutes, boil for 60
English Ale yeast ferment at 21 degrees
 
I've just pitched S-189 into my first ever rice lager. 80% pils, 20% rice, 1.043, 14 IBU and 11 degrees.

We're hosting the family Christmas this year, so I wanted an inoffensive crowd pleaser. I wasn't sure how I would go with the rice, but I got my best ever efficiency of 93% into the kettle, so something went right!
 
Going to have a shot at a Montheiths Origional Ale clone tomorrow...... well it may be similar :)

Iwas going to brew an english special bitter and the first pack of hops i pulled out was Pacific Gem..... whats a bloke to do :)

It will be a bit higher in alc and a bit more bitter but that is cause i can and i will !

turns out i had A LOT more hops to clean out than i expected. I decided to go heavy handed with the chinook, adding the extra 30g to flameout. 210g in this batch brings it to approx 10g of hops per L of wort. Delicious!

:super:

Looks awesome! Sometimes the unplanned brews turn out to be the best ones. Never replicable though ;)

Cheers
 
But it is, as Fourstar noted all his additions down.
10g/L ftw!


Heres hoping the 12 month old hops dont taste like a 12 month old cheddar. :lol:

The centennial had minimal aroma out of the bag but still resinous. The rest seemed ok. I cant wait for my new vac sealer to mitigate accidental accelerated hop aging as small zip-lock baggies squeezed and wrapped like a body in dexter seems to get the job done, but vacuum would be better.

Also gets me excited about doing a rib eye roast sous vide. :icon_drool2:
 
So in vacuum sealed bag in the HLT then brown in the oven afterwards?


more or less.. probably pan sear it to get a decent crust so its cooked to perfection or cook it rare sous viode and then oven roast it to medium

it came in the mail a couple of hours ago, im goign to test it out on a scotch fillet tonight or a rib eye. ;)
