Taste Notes
Loosely based on Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.
03/06 needs a couple of more weeks conditioning but so far so good. Bit too much body compared to SNPA - needs to be crisper. Slightly cloudy, may clear over next few weeks. Bitterness feels about right.Notes
Added 5ml lactic (pH 5.33) followed by 1ml @ 15min pH between 5.15 and 5.2.
pre-boil gravity = 1.044.
@30min 1.046 (lid on).
@50min 1.048 (partially covered).
Boiled for 80 min - 1.057 (too long!) 2.56kg boiled off = 2.4l(est).
added 500ml to bring gravity down to 1.055
Final vol in kg 7.789 = 7.38l.
Crushed Crisp malt had a number of uncrushed grains. This possibly accounted for the low conversion. Run malt through mill next time...
Pitched yeast a bit warm - 23deg. Had left to temp settle overnight in chest freezer set to 20deg but needed longer.
Day 5 racked to new fermentor. 1.011/1.012! Added 20g Cascade in nylon bag.
Bottled day 10 @ 1.011 6.822kg = 6.75L = 20.5 bottles
