1272......... what else???



No chilling,
25 min hops at 20 min
15 min hops at 10 min
5 min hops in whirlpool at flame out
2 min hops in 17L cube.
Add 3 liters of water at ferment

Might even dry hop it at day 3 of ferment too :)

I'm up around 90 IBU so I'm not to worried about being exact with the no chill adjustment........ i just want it bitter and hoppy.

Can you believe......... as far as i can remember, this is the first time i have done an all cascade brew :p
 
Don't overcomplicate it. 60% Wheat, 40% Pils, WY3068 @ 17c. Mash at 66, bitter to 15IBU with Hallertau.
Drinking a pint of Hefe with this exact recipe, and it's damn close to perfect. Only minor change would be a touch more colour, but this could be added via decoction if desired.

Ok, you've talked me into sneaking a hefe into the brewing list - similar to above only 50/50 Wheat and Pils, WB-06 @ 18 C.
Early start say 8am tomorrow, really need to fill some kegs.

Man I love that wb-06. Did my last dunkel with it at 19.5 though, and my last hefe at around 21. That hefe is about 6 weeks old and tastes fantastic (bottled, highly carbed). I haven't tried using wb-06 as low as 18 degrees as yet, worried it'll be too tame for my taste?

I've just finished brewing a small batch (14 litre) extract pale ale to top up my reserves, 800gm amber DME, 700gm light LME & 600gm wheat LME, 10 grams of Warrior @ 60, 12 grams of Amarillo @ 5. US-05 yeast.
 
HLT on timer, grain crushed.

Dusseldorf Altbier up first then a Rauchbier using Best Smoked malt, should be all done by noon tomorrow if all goes well!

Brewing on a 40 degree day sucks. Hope I can't taste all the sweat I've dripped into this.

LOL...there's gotta be a VB advertisement for that somewhere...actually maybe that's why it tastes like that?
:icon_vomit:
 
I can't comment on the warrior, but that is a seriously awesome hop combination there, krausenhaus.

Yeah, can't wait to taste this one!

Brewing today was definitely a bad idea though, I could've probably filled an extra carboy with sweat after hanging around a spiral burner under full sun.

Started to feel pretty average after a while, drank a heap of water, puked, took a cold shower and now I'm trying not to pass out before I start chilling.

Heat exhaustion brewing, good times.

Happy new year to all! :beer:

You'll need more than ale malt with IBU's of over 54!!!
Drop your bittering back to approx 18 IBU's & you'll be a lot closer

Cheers Ross

Edit: Spelling

Cheers Ross. I couldnt bring myself to drop the IBUs under 25 :D

I may have to work up the required enthusiasm to brew a single batch of UXB (in the DB).
Friggen hot and humid ATM though, perhaps drinking beers in the pool may just win out ;) .
 
May as well do a double mate.... Or a triple....
 
Just about to cube a Porter. Hasn't been prime brewing weather this morning that's for sure.
 
Trying an Irish Stout K&K

1 CAN - Mangrove Jacks Irish Stout
500g - Chocolate Malt
700g - DDME
60g - EKG @60min

Danstar Nottingham Yeast @ 16C

Hope it turns out alright, trying to get something like a Guinness.
 
I'd guess that 60g of EKG (aa slightly dependent) @60 with a prebittered tin will give something slightly more bitter than the guinness you are chasing. 500g of choc in with a black beer kit is also a lot.

Might turn out great - just expect much more bitter and roasty than guinness
 
So you mean better than Guninness??? ;)

Yeah i had to take a sip after i finished the boil and topped it up with water it tasted more sweet than bitter had a nice roast behind it, just as long it isn't as strong as coopers stout (commercial) i can't stand that bitterness. I've never used nottingham either before so i got me fingers crossed.
