I soaked the 0.5lbs of rice hulls in the hottest tap water I could get out of my faucet, this did two things, presoaked them so I would not lose volume due to absorbtion, and two it brought the temp up to minimize any thermal absorbtion as well. I soaked them for 45 minutes and added them from a strainer to the mash just before doughing in. The lautering went well.
Hydrometer not working properly. Reading about 0.012 low.
Split the 10 gallon wort into two 5 gallon batches. Fermented #1 with Conan yeast and #2 with Chico yeast. Batch #2 had more hop matter and cold break because I filled that fermenter last.
2/15/15 - The Conan yeast in #1 was much more active early then settled down after about 5 days. The Chico yeast in #2 was a slow stater, probably due to the age of the culture. The #2 batch was fermenting stongly and still had a krausen on 2/5/15.
2/22/15 - racked to secondaries and dry hopped with 0.85oz of Citra.
- #1 (Conan) - yeast has flocculated and the beer has a nice orange color.
- #2 (Chico) - yeast doesn't seem done with primamry yet, but I'm done waiting. Primary still has a Krausen.
3/21/15 - bottled 3.75 oz of table sugar in each batch
- #1 (Conan) - FG 1.010 - 45 bottles (4.2 gallons) 6.0% ABV
- #2 (Chico) - FG 1.006 - 46 bottles (4.3 gallons) 6.6% ABV
