GC is cubed, APA is just coming to the boil.

My Munich Oatmeal Stout was a write off (my first)

My false bottom inverted (again) and due to time constraints, I just couldn't save it.
Will post in separate thread so as not to clutter this one, but no feedback coming on my Munich I stout sadly.

 

[jyo]

here are a couple pics of the difference the Hibiscuc flowers made to my pale ale

There's another one for the list, Tony! Nice work.

Some great looking recipes happening here, fellas.

Lord Goomba's recipe.
Subbed the Cascade for Chinook, what I had on hand.
Was going to maybe do some dry hop. Just took a gravity read and I don't think that I'll do that. The malt & rye is tasting pretty awesome as it is, so I don't wanna **** with that balance.
Here's hoping for a noice sippa.

Our first attempt at a potato beer yesterday.

Mr Potato Head Farmhouse Ale.

Basically a Saison recipe with 27% potato flakes & fermented with WY3726 @ warehouse temps.
The 3.5kg of flakes needed 22l of water to make into mash potato before adding to the mash, so approx 25kg of potato to a 50L keg.
Hit our target OG so looks like we got good conversion.

If the beer is drinkable, it'll be on tap at The Scratch on St Paddys day.

Hmm if the potato was added to the kettle...

But no, you have said in the MT. Can I suggest another name?

Deb Ale anyone?

No, no that's it, no more shit stirring. Well I guess potato starch can equal sugars so it looks like the enzymes from the malt aren't too fussy. Good on you for giving it a go.

******* non sealing cubes *******.

I should have checked. Cube didn't seal, grand cru stinky and now on the hop plants. Thank christ I had extra wort and being a high gravity beer, I made a 4 litre starter so the yeast isn't wasted. I will brew again this Sunday and have the starter ready to go. 8+kg of premium malt wasted.

Bugger, that's one reason I usualy pitch the next day.

Ross - at least you guys can't be accused of brewing boring, same-old, beers.

 

[manticle]

I pitch next day 9 times out of 10 but needed to make a decent size starter which I make from identical wort. OG is meant to be around 1080+

What I didn't do was lay the cube on the side. Since it was full, I remember thinking on Sunday that heat sanitising the minimal airspace in the cube would be done without laying down but laying on the side has another benefit. Any drips after 10 mins means not sealed, not sealed means infection risk.

Starter smells great so I have hope for the re-brew.
