You make some interesting looking beers winkle.

Aiming for a Belgian Golden ale tomorrow. Most of my beers of late have been a bit uninspiring - hoping those fermenting + this will change that.

http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/inde...amp;recipe=1298

This beer but with a 5 minute 55 rest rather than 20 and probably sucrose instead of dex. Also all dingemans pils (although I may blend it with weyermans if rook doesn't come around and grab his grain soon)
 
I wish I was brewing something.

Instead, I'm bottling. 3 x 35 litre batches at cc atm.

105 litres to bottle over the next 4-5 days.

PITA.

But then it'll be back to brewing.

Think I'll knock up an apa:

JW ale malt
Munich 1
Light crystal
Simcoe at 60
Simcoe at 30
Amarillo at 10
Amarillo at 0
Wyeast 1272

Nothing over the top but should be tasty....

Doesn't mean that they always work :D .
That one is cubed up and ready to pitch tomorrow - it'll be blended with another batch that ended up far too strong, into a 40 litre keg.
Biere de Noel coming up this weekend :rolleyes: , I'd better brew some more sensible ABV ones after that.

fermenting one cube with s-189 and the other with san diego super yeast?

Tried a no squeeze no sparge mash on my biab rig to try get a lower efficiency and a maltier brew. Strangely enough it seems i've got the same efficiency as I normally get with playing around with extra buckets! Sweet :)
 
Brewed this today. The aroma of the mash was amazing. Over 200g of EKG and Fuggles added for a 20L batch!

Hey all,

Decided Im going to put a brew down after work tonight as I will be freeing up a cube of APA that i will get onto ferment once I get home

Since ive been doing a few APA, IPA, IBA's of late, i was going to stick with something a little more for the mrs and the masses (although the mrs does enjoy a nice fruity hoppy ale)

I am pretty sure Bribie posted something similar to this for a whale ale style beer so credit to him for posting the original.

22L
50% pils
50% wheat
Cascade (probably, just because ive got an abundance of it atm) at flameout (or cube hopped) to 20IBU
US-05 @ 16'

I was originally going to just stick to the original and have a 60min addition and thats it, but with it being a fairly simple malt bill with low fermentation, i just thought getting the IBU's through a late addition would give it a little more flavour and aroma

I'm open for any suggestions/feedback though :icon_chickcheers:

2.5 g each CaCl and CaSo4 for 22 litre batch

Added at mashout

i can sort of understand the carafa at mash out but why the choc malt ?
 
I use both in my schwarzbier and find them less astringent done this way, a ten minute steep gives a lot of colour without a lot of harshness i find. Dont know if thats really the case or its just in my head
cheers
