Hey Thomas how to do find using oats affects the beer? I'm guessing this is used for mouth feel. If so have you tried this recipe with wheat? I've noticed some people (I extract brew) use wheat extract for mouth feel and body.

:icon_cheers:

I used the oats mainly (originally anyway) to get better head retention, but found that what I REALLY liked about the resulting change was the mouth feel, yeah the head lasts longer, but, to quote a plumber I once knew "it's beer, not a head job".....

I'm wanting to try this brew with wheat, but it will have to wait til I can justify purchasing more grain.

Oh yeah the "pale malt" used in this recipe is one I malt myself, so using a commercial malt may give a different result, so I might just have to try that to see what the effect is. Wouldn't want anyone to try this one and get a "bad" beer just 'cause I'm too cheep to buy malt! (20kg barley + elbow grease = malt at $0.75/kg) :ph34r:

The lacto culture gets a feed before you add the ale yeast. Maybe 24 hours or more. I did not get enough sourness from 24 hours, so will try 48 this time, and keep trying until I get it right.

Im on it :)

Should it be a clean yeast like a dry american strain, malty euro strain or can a Wheat strain be used ?

15g Styrian Dry Hops
No chill. 1469, OG usually 1.050, FG 1.010. About 20L of roughly 5%ABV, carbonate <2vols.

This time round I might be adding the sugar after fermentation starts, while the wheat and polenta are optional extras that I am just toying with ATM. Fuggles for bittering in the past, but lately the scales are tipping towards Challenger, seems to merge better with EKG & Styrian but not a whole lot in it to be honest. The 100% GP and 3% Caraaroma versions are not too shabby either, and while caramelising wort and decoction are both PITAs, they're well worth it IMO... :icon_drool2:

Its been a weekend of big beers - the BABBs wild brew project beer went well yesterday although the 2.75 hour boil seemed to take ages, still got there in the end 18-19ish litres and a OG of 1.103.
Today was the turn of a Chocolate RIS. Went well until the no-chill cube split :angry: . Rescued using the Browndog method. Was aiming for 1.091 got 1.087 for 20ish litres so fairly happy overall apart from the cube.
 
third AG brew today after six month house building layoff. Well two brews as one was with china hops and tastes like s*&t so it doesnt count. I was mainly after an easy drinking ale with a nice malt profile and not to overpowering hop flavour or bitterness. I have a Dr S GA fermenting and plan to do my first Brown ale and american amber so dont want all monster flavoured beers.

Hey Brad,

Thanks!

happy to flick you the recipe if you want to tweak it

Rob.
 
Well we are just brewing using Coopers kit, we are using the coopers lager, keepn it simple as 1st go at it.
We got it all bottled now and so far it looks and tastes and smells bloody beautiful.
Am I right in leaving it under the house bottled for a week then fridge then drink or should it be a bit longer under the house?
Cheers look forward to learning the art of brew.

Canberra, it'll taste best after a month or so in the bottle, but you'll be good to start on it in 2 weeks. Patience is the hardest part about this hobby of ours!

I've just started the boil of a LCBA clone.

Only a 12L batch, as I didn't feel like struggling with my small pots on the stove and an overloaded BIA bag. (Hopefully the last BIAB run before I get my mash tun together!)

2KG BB Galaxy
600g Vienna
200g Wheat
80g Carared (had it floating around - why not I say...)

7g of B Saaz and NZ Cascade Flowers at 45
7g of B Saaz and NZ Cascade Flowers at 15
12g of B Saaz and NZ Cascade Flowers at Flame out
US-05
 
Just popping back in to let you kow that the Citra Hop ale that I made is bloody BEAUTIFUL! It's a bit more subdued than the Cascade and Amarillo versions of this brew that I have made, but it's definitely an easy drinker with lots of hop character.
 
3.3kgs pale lager malt
0.2kgs carapils
0.2kgs flaked rye

22g Pearle (8% AA 60mins)
14g Saaz (6.3%AA 5mins/flame out)
1 whirlfloc tab 15mins
Wyeast Danish Lager yeast (1L starter)

OK, so had a delay creep in and had to put it off til today, sparging right now, and although the EBC *should be* ~6.8 right now (sparge just about done) is running more like 2.5. I DO hope it colours up during the boil, otherwise it's just not going to be a fun beer to drink.....

That reminds me I'd better get to weighing the hops! Changed my mind on those too, going with German northern brewer for bittering and the home grown Pearle for flavour/aroma. 27g of Northern Brewer and 14g of the Pearle.
 
Mashing now...

mash.jpg

8KG Maris Otter, and 800g Crystal.

Hops waiting...

Mix of Amarillo, Challenger, Bramling Cross and Styrian, and more Styrian... Beersmith says, 1103OG and 103IBU. Well see...

Hey Scruffy, didn't realise you were a bag boy :p

Recipe: ******* Bitter
Brewer: Mayo
Looks just great to me, Mayo! I recall Northdown being quite well suited to this sort of Ordinary/ ESB, can't argue with Styrian or 1275 either, while 3% Caraaroma makes me weak at the knees, particularly in a Landlord. A low mash temp perhaps?

Hey Scruffy, didn't realise you were a bag boy tongue.gif

The pics of your hops, I thought was a takeaway until I had a closer look & read laugh.gif

Cheers Ross

Well yesterday I had to meet the missus at 3, so BIAB and a 1hr mash and 1hr boil - It made 1.102, only 20l though! I could have mashed in the old 60l esky, but needed to be swift.

I did make a grave error though, gathering in the folds of voile pre hoist I missed one and let maybe 1KG slip into the wort... did my best to rescue it, but alas - checkout the whirlpool!!!
