What's the taste like on this beer? Seems to be a hell of a lot of room to fit flavour in there...
 
Oatmeal stout, not really the time of year for it but I'm sure it will be nice.

Dopplebock - biab. Wrestled with the grain bag and the urn struggled with the decoction mash, I think I have found the limits of my 40l urn. Will post recipe later for those interested. Going to be a hard 6-9 month wait if this one comes together, it smells awesome.

The red rice lager is bloody good. Great for a hot day and sessionable. Seems to please everyone

After seeing BribieG attempting a Brains SA clone, I have decided to have a go myself.

Brains SA Clone (Special/Best/Premium Bitter)

Original Gravity (OG): 1.054 (°P): 13.3
Final Gravity (FG): 1.014 (°P): 3.6
Alcohol (ABV): 5.31 %
Colour (SRM): 11.2 (EBC): 22.1
Bitterness (IBU): 30.4 (Average - No Chill Adjusted)

93.48% Pale Ale Malt
6.52% Caraaroma

0.7 g/L Northern Brewer (9.6% Alpha) @ 60 Minutes (Boil)
0.7 g/L East Kent Golding (4.7% Alpha) @ 10 Minutes (Boil)
0.7 g/L Fuggles (7.1% Alpha) @ 10 Minutes (Boil)


Mash 10m@52 - 60m@68 - 10m@72 - 10m@76

I ended up getting a much better efficiency with this brew, although I dont know why, as I had a stuck mash (again). I ended up dilluting the wort before boiling it to bring the OG down to 1040 and ended up with a gravity of 1046 which should give me an abv of around 4.6%, with 30 litres of wort instead of 23 litres.
I havent ordered any yeast yet, but I will later today.
Cheers

an additional 7 litres - what will your IBU drop to out of interest ?

It probably isnt 7 litres but around that, I made some on the fly adjustments for hops, but it still is going to drop by about 3 - 4 ibu's. Its a bit hard to back calculate it accurately when I have had such a massive jump in efficiency. I normally get somewhere between 72 and 75. Beats me?

I'll be doing a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone I found on another forum through googling it, I've converted to metric and changed some of the hop amounts to get to the desired IBUs. Will be brewing this one when I free up a cube in the next week or so.

Batch Size 25.00 L

Estimated OG: 1.051 SG
Estimated FG: 1.011 SG
Estimated Color: 17.0 EBC
Estimated IBU: 37.6 IBUs
Estimated ABV: 5.2% (5.5/5.6% bottled)

Mash @ 66C for 90 mins with 76C mashout
5.22 kg Pale Malt
0.45 kg Caramel/Crystal Malt - (145.0 EBC)

75 minute boil
20.00 g Magnum [12.20 %] - Boil 60.0 min 22.9 IBUs
18.00 g Perle [7.00 %] - Boil 30.0 min 9.1 IBUs
30.00 g Cascade [5.60 %] - Boil 10.0 min 5.7 IBUs
60.00 g Cascade [5.60 %] - Aroma Steep 0.0 min (flameout)
1.0 pkg American Ale (Wyeast Labs #1056)

Will be interesting to see how close it gets to the original. A few people who commented on the original thread who brewed it said that it was pretty much spot on, just slight variations in the color which I'm not worried about. Just have to go and get some Perle hops and I can get it underway. :)
 
Might do a brown ale tomorrow. Some carahell, caramunich2, caraaroma some pale choc, little bit of sugar and some flaked barley.
