Where did you get 60 days from?. I plan on 18 months fermentation. I may split into 2 batches and fruit one after 12 months.

On reading it again I have no idea where I got 60 days from... 18 months sounds more like what I would expect.
 
Knocking out a low ABV saison to quaff next weekend

EDIT: retardation
 
Why the bry 97?. Belle saison will be done in 4 days at 25c+ easily, and be more tart and authentic. Still, I'm guessing it'll be pretty nice either way :)
 
Going to brew up a hop bomb this weekend, been a couple of months since I've had one on tap so I'm really looking forward to it.

Just hoping I've finally got my numbers dialled in, I have never hit my target gravity for really big beers but I think I may have my system sussed now.

looks mighty tasty. That's a big OG so I'd expect a lower efficiency than your usual batches.

do you chill?
 
Why the double length mash at 66c - 120mins?

I'm calculating my efficiency at 61%, about 8 points lower than normal, seems to be about right by previous big beers I've brewed.

Yeah, I chill.

I've found I get better efficiency mashing for longer, my normal mash is 90 minutes, just giving myself every chance possible to hit my targets on this beer.
 
i see no shame in adding a touch of dme to hit est. og if your efficiency holds you back
 
Just finished the mash on a gluten free trial beer.

53% Sorghum pale ale malt
40% green Sorghum malt
7% Golden Syrup

Measured the pre boil gravity as 1.030

Using Ella hops at 30 and 10 for about 25 IBU.

Golden Syrup at 5 minutes.
 
Acerola Tarwe part 2, taken a while for the fruit to start ripening. Nice weather for it......not.
 
Irish Red Ale, just about finished the boil now
23 litres
5.1 kg Marris otter
170 g crystal 40
170 g crystal 120
170 g roasted malt
