What Are You Brewing III

[winkle]

Welcome back, Argon!






Why not brew something for the 3763 Roselaire yeast I still have sitting in the fridge for you?

EDIT: Just checked the pack, manufactured 26.01.12 ... :unsure:

That yeast is indestructable I'll brew a reddish pale ale ferment it out with a standard Belgian yeast then bung a starter of the Roselaire on top - the only holdup is I haven't got my 25l cask yet. I may have to get a demijohn to fill in.

Right now I'm after quick hot weather quenchers, hence the wheats - too many Triples, dubbles, Imperials and BdGs in the kegs ATM

I think I have a few grams of simcoe - not enough to do much else with so I may give it a small dose late.

Have another 3kg of Maris otter so I might do my first mild as well if I get time. Something like MO, heritage, biscuit, aromatic and choc with a wee hint of challenger to around 25 IBU. 1040 ish start, mash at 69.

Never done one before so I might read through some of the good info posted up by butters and co and pick mje's brain on the matter as well.

Brewing a smallish NZ IPA atm, using pacifica hops for the first time. 2g/L at 10 and 1min to see how this hop stands up.

Some nice spicy & light stonefruit notes when I opened the hop pack.... mmmm yummo!

 

[Tony]

My fingers are yellow and sticky from NZ cascade and B Saaz flowers

What a great day

Got a 3711 French Saison cheap from the LHBS so putting a bitsa extract down. I've never done a Saison but recall from a trip to the North West in the States that I enjoy them.

Can of Coopers Pale
Can of Coopers wheat malt
500g LDME
200g Dex

30g Northern brewer @ 10 mins

1052 OG according to the Kit and Extract spreadsheet. Havent yet taken an OG to compare. Want to let it cool down a bit first.

Lively 3711 smack pack pitched at 30 degrees and straight into the keezer. No beer on the bar and the ferment freezer being full means I'm compromising. Shame my keg king temp controller literally fell apart whe I went to adjust the temp up tp 20 degrees! Got it sorted but its 35 degrees today in sunny Adelaide so it was a tense few moments.
