Whats In The Glass

[Bribie G]

Aha, missed that one. Quick google, 15% oils.

 

[seamad]

My flat white stout.

78% Marris Otter
7% Chocolate
5% Crystal 60
5% Roast barley
3% Flaked Oats... dunno why, oh well!
2% Carafa II

ALSO! The equivalent of 5% lactose powder as well!

Mash 60 mins 67c

25 IBU of Challenger Hops at 60 mins
Dry-beaned with 5gm/L specialty coffee beans... I used Atomica.

Safale S-04 @ 19 deg

It smells sublime... tastes delicious and looks a treat...the slight creaminess of the lactose and the coffee bean aroma/slight flavour work just so well!

...Until the head disappears within seconds leaving nothing! No lacing, nothing! Could it have something to do with the oils in the coffee beans? What is taking my head? Would love to know haha

Perhaps I'll sub the oats for Carapils next time? Regardless... delish beer that will go down a treat in winter. Perhaps a few months in the bottle will help its cause.

Highly recommend.

Arabica beans are @ 12-20 % oil iirc, so combined with the oats could be the problem

Just got back from 6 hours of driving so time to sit down and have a beer with the housemates. A nice fresh clovey hefeweizen at 3 vol and an roasty oatmeal stout at 1.8.

 

[menoetes]

Lime Infused Cream Ale with both rice and polenta in the mash. Turned out a treat; cheers to Seehussen and Madpierre for their help with the recipe

Okay, finally one I am proud of. The making of this all Mosaic IPA has been a *****. But the taste makes it all worth it. With 7g/L it packs a punch, very earthy. But tastes citrusy.

Only 6 days in the bottle but couldn't wait to try one. Only one carb drop per 750mL bottle as well, much prefer this level of carbonation.

Sharing a tasting paddle with the younger brother to teach him about the beers, would do four but I broke a glass when stacking them in our dishwasher.. Left to right: Oatmeal Stout, Brown Porter, Hefeweizen

It has mellowed a little, flavours have settled and it's better than before.

Cream ale & Apa

 

[lobedogg]

Steam Ale Clone. Mine on the right. Only been in the keg a few days. In all honesty, mine tastes far better than the one out of the bottle. More like I remember having at the brewery itself. Real hop zing on the nose with lovely fruit aroma from the Motueka. Been sitting on the recipe for a while. Basically a version of Syl's clone IIRC. Got a barbie tomorrow, and wanted something a bit more sessionable for the masses.

Apologies for average pic and size also.

I like that beer from MG, light and refreshing.

I think that they use Oranic Pilsner malt which is how they get the colour so light, what did you use?

[lobedogg]

Just use Joe White Pils from memory mate. Can check my notes tonight.

Just found recipe which I basically followed on my work compy:

Steamed Goat (American Pale Ale)

Original Gravity (OG): 1.050 (°P): 12.4
Final Gravity (FG): 1.013 (°P): 3.3
Alcohol (ABV): 4.91 %
Colour (SRM): 3.4 (EBC): 6.7
Bitterness (IBU): 26.1 (Average)

87.49% Pilsner
12.51% Wheat Malt

0.8 g/L B Saaz (8.6% Alpha) @ 13 Minutes (Boil)
0.8 g/L Citra (11.1% Alpha) @ 13 Minutes (Boil)
0.8 g/L Galaxy (13.4% Alpha) @ 13 Minutes (Boil)

Single step Infusion at 66°C for 60 Minutes. Boil for 60 Minutes

Fermented at 18°C with Safale US-05

Notes: 2g/l dry hop

No hops in boil (13 min additions were added 10 mins after flameout. (I no chill).

Dry Hop was something like:
.5g/l Galaxy
1g/l Motueka
1g/l Citra/Mosaic

Motueka seems to be the main one doing the talking though.

Dark English Mild - 2.9%

Pretty happy with this one, even though it's the lightest I've brewed it doesn't sacrifice for flavour. Rich biscuit maltiness, fruity esters as expected by Ringwood yeast and overall very enjoyable and sessionable. I aimed for 3.5% however due to high mash rest and Ringwood it seems to ended high but not in a bad way. Not carbed yet as I'm just letting it sit under the pressure but still great, just like out of the cask!

Phew...I thought I was the only bloke who liked to do side-by-side tastings of my clone beers in the bathroom immediately following a shower...I'm not so strange after all.
Nice looking beer there, btw.

 

[glennheinzel]

Rye pale ale. I subbed the carabohemian for carahell on the next batch in order to lighten the colour.

 

[Tahoose]

Oatmeal stout and chocolate brownie with salted caramel/almond ice cream.

The stout and the chocolate live together harmoniously.

First Wheat Beer..
