What Are You Brewing III

I might go and smack it now.

I am kegging an APA with BRY 97 tonight. It was a double batch and the first keg is not drinking up to my expectations. If this one is not much chop, I will heading back to old reliable US05 and 1272.

Just smacked a 1469. Its a tad old so will fire up a starter in the next day or so. Sounds like you are not completely sold on BRY-97 either. I want it to work sooo much, but I think I am heading back to US-05 and 1272 as well.

Into the FV's today a double batch IPA, side by side comparison.

1070 wort

First batch
50g Mosaic - Cube
100g Amarillo - Cube

Second Batch
50g Amarillo - Cube
100g Ahtanum - Cube

Yeast is some rinsed (50ml clean yeast) Greenbelt into a 2lt starter split between the 2 cubes + 1 pkt BRY-97 Each cube (Rehydrated)

The aim is to do a side by side to see what Ahtanum brings to the table, reading suggests that its similar to Amarillo, so will just have to wait and see now

ed: fermenting low @ 17

:beerbang:

I have a half kilo of Ahtanum waiting for an experimental brew. I thought it was more like Cascade than anything else, so really keen to hear how your brew pans out.

I was planning a 95% pale, 5% light crystal with all Ahtanum late (maybe a super alpha early for the IBUs). Anyone else a fan of Ahtanum? Any commercial beers that feature it?

Cheers
