Notes

Pre brew notes ________________ ---------------- starter date - 4th March 2016 ______________________________ Aimed for 1.036 OG but got 1.034 - aiming for 1.6l finished size after boiling 2l water for 10 mins. 1.6l figure taken from brewers friend, so 1.6 x 1.3 = 2 (allowing for exaporation loss). next time decrease amount of water using the mentioned figures. maybe by 200ml? this is what I did - 2l water, 160g DME boil 10 mins, tiny bit of yeast nutrient (1/8th tsp), leave 24hrs - Manufacture date - Jan 18 2016. visible sign of sunked krausen ring on inside of erlynmeyer flask. ______________________________ 0.5tsp irish moss 10min boil. 0.5tsp nutient added at 10 mins. Last Amarillo hop addition (steep) at 68C for 30 mins. may hop stand in a seperate pot so I don't get hop pellet junk in the boiler. ferment at 18C and raise temp during end of fermentation. Brew day - 5th March 2016 ______________________________ ------------------------------ mashed 8l at 73C strike. heated a bit after adding grain, aiming for mash around 67C. pH measure 5.2 at end of mash. sparged 7l at 73C strike for 30mins. sparge measured 67-68C at start. 80 min boil. 30mins in, will start hop stand in 2l of 67C water - 15g armarillo pellets. sugar - 300g dextrose, 220g caster sugar added at 60boil. missed end of boil, boiling extra 10mins with 9g amarillo pellets and irish moss. hop stand for 80 mins, temp ranged from 67-74C. 15g amarillo pellets in 2l water. strain using preboiled muslin and sanatised collander.
