What Are You Brewing III

[waggastew]

A cut down, partial mash version of Tony's Monteiths Original Ale clone

1.2kg Pale malt
200g Crystal 120
50g Pale choc malt
All mashed at 66degC
1.5kg Liquid wheat malt
200g LDME
Whirlfoc, yeast nutrient etc
10g Pacific Gem, 40min
10g Pacific Gem, 10min
20g Pacific Gem, 0min
Made upto 19L
Pitched with 2 x Craftbrewer English Ale dry yeast blend, fermented at 20degC

Screwed up the whirlpool, most of the trub ended up in the fermenter. Hopefully the result won't be too affected.

Thanks Tony for the original recipe

What a bag of laughs that wasn't today. I think I may have invented the 5V saucepan, soup ladle and strainer method.

Made a snap decision to brew up Browndog's ABA.

In a bit of a rush I didn't notice my BIAB bag seemed to have disentegrated :angry:

Result, at the end of the mash I spent an hour straining the lot into a fermenter and an esky, sparging through a hop sock and - oh yes - cursing quite a farking lot.

Still I'm looking forward to tasting my Disaster ABA.

How can a BIAB bag disintegrate?

Mate you gotta get to Spotlight not Woolie's Homebrand Pillowcases.


As with TP we must catch up soon for a session before Pete pollutes your pure brewing with some HERMS propaganda

Another
The world-renouned HERMS brainwashing technique is a statistically tried & true method which as always, pisses over the sad mother-udder-in-the-kettle\put your faith in your (AHB) threads\put your hope in whatever syndrome.
Let me know when to rock up again for another united brewday mate. :beer:

Nice! Did you know that Am Wheats are in the Hybrid category coz they may use a hybrid yeast, usually a Klsch yeast. W1010 is reputedly from Paffgen in Kln. I find this style smoother with the non-American yeast.

 

[Fish13]

na i didnt but i know this isnt a true rye beer as it must be 50%.

its all done just chilling now. only got 12L as the cold weather just destroyed the evap rate.

Blimey - not sure we want to get caught in the middle of your cat fight :lol:

Anyway it was one of CB's specials ... it had been cleaned and dried, but seemed very brittle - only been used 7 times, but I reckon there's a good chance mice may have been nibbling at it

Been super busy with work and the little fella (almost 1 yr old), and moving house at the end of the month ... but would be good to catch up.

Hmmm, maybe there should be a shed-christening some time.

Threw down this last night

1 x Thomas Coopers IPA (India Pale Ale) (1.7kg)
1 x Thomas Coopers Amber Malt Extract (1.5kg)
1 x Coopers Light Dry Malt (500g)
23L

OG - 1.051

Naming it Mystery IPA since I have never done a IPA before and not too sure how it will turn out :lol:

Going to dry hop some EKG hops later this week just for a bit of aroma, I figure an IPA doesn't need too much more bitterness.

Hydrated @ 52C, rise to 69C

An extra 150g of choc made it a brown... I will still drink it. As an example of my laziness I preferred to just add it and re-classify the beer than to try to get the choc back into the bag - it was not even mixed with other grains, just came out of a small hole in a full bag. Worst case scenario, it is still beer.

Going to bang this one out tomorrow
the 400g Extract was used in a culture
I pour all of this in so added it to recipe
Been doing this one for a couple of years
