Rained in AGAIN, so another clone of my favorite micro.

Description:

Brewed this a couple of times and its so close, triangular tasting by visitors couldnt pick between it and the bottled version. 0 hops are added to the keg and weighted.5 minute hops are flameout and sit in the kettle for about 10min during whirlpool and convection, plate chilled. Water treatment is a heaped teaspoon of 5.2 buffer, a pinch of calc chloride flakes and half a teaspoon of sulphate to the mash.Half a teaspoon of yeast nutrient with the 15min hops. Yeast could be us-05, 1056, 1272 etc. This usally finishes at around 1008-10. Its dry smoothe and passionfruit thats not overly offensive. Elevated to house #1 brew.

Damn that looks tasty Rob! Let us know how those new season Simcoe taste.

Hey Mate,

Missed this before, I will let you know for sure - they smelt fantastic after opening the bag, can't wait to tap
the keg of this.

How did your aussie ale go with Wyeast 1098? I just cracked mine with WLP009 Aussie Ale yeast
and it's amazing but a hard yeast to get hold of so looking for a replacement.

Cheers Rob.
 
About half way through the protein rest on this badboy. Never used this much unmalted wheat, hope i don't get a stuck sparge which is what the protein rest is trying to avoid.

Trying a new method today as well - have put heaps of water (20L) into the pot for the mash-in water and have it boiling for the step mash.

Hmm, either i have hit 95% efficiency or I haven't got as much in the kettle as I thought. Preboil SG of 1.044 which is pretty much my expected post boil OG. Had a really slow sparge but it got there, maybe the slow sparge, step mash and acidulated malt have all conspired to give me ridiculous efficiency.

Going to have to cut this one with water after the boil unless i want 6.5% Witbier :beerbang:

Coriander is crushed and boil is starting - smells like a spice shop in the garage!
 
Brewed this one today.

Wasn't the smoothest of brew days, owing to a quick departure to the train station mid mash and end of boil for the missus.

All went well really, couple of liters over estimate and hence slighty lower OG... oh well Meh...

Quite looking forward to this, havent brewed an IPA in a long time. Would have used more Galaxy late, but i only had 90g.

Must do more planning next time as todays brew was going to be a light with munich I as base with NS... Next time Gadget, next time...
