[Yob]

Chickening out of an all cube hop, doing a 10 min as it reads above and then a wp addition of 10 cascade/citra/mosaic

Ed getting pine and fruit from the hop cups.. This is gonna rock!!

The smell in the brewery is well exciting

 

[Nick JD]

Put down a batch of Alcopop. 12L with 1kg of Dex and 200g of LDME for a touch under 5%.

Gonna add a bottle of Midori essence, sugar to taste, and a boil up of lemongrass, ginger, orange peel and corriander.

Into the keg and carb it up. Used a cup of 1272 slurry at ambient (18-25C).

Mmmmm, lime green girly fizz.

Looks like an American Pale ale to me.

It doesn't exactly fit that style either. The hops are what I have left. So its a bit of a mongrel.

at the end of the boil there was a huge bitterness but almost zero hop flavour left in thee wort. fixed this up with 150 grams of cascade in the whirlpool and 50 each of cascade and citra in the cube. mash hopping for me is a complete waste of time in a hop forward ale but based on this experience it might be usefull in something like an aussie lager where i want the bitterness without the hop flavour. my scoresheet from beerfest said i had a little to much hop flavour and aroma so considering i only used 13 grams of hops for 90 mins i was struggling to see how to improve this aspect. hopefully solution found.
