Notes

BREW DAY Mash temp 152F held for 90 minutes. Replace outlet water hose on chiller. Halletauer was subbed for Crystal. NEED: Chaulk Pipette airation stone hop stopper PH strips Rice Hulls 2/3/20 The beer is sweet. And the color is rather pale. Figure out how to change the coloring to a richer yellow. March 11, 2020 V 2 Subbed East Kent Goldings for Willimette Added 1.80 Lbs of Crystal 75 to add color December 2020 Need a supply of Willimette hops for this brew. Am subbing all over the place. I will sub 1.5lbs of two row for the 1.5lbs of Flaked Corn I am short. I will attempt to use the hops utilization feature to get a better handle on hop flavors. I am beginning to believe my beer all tastes alike because of degradation of hops. Maybe buying bulk hops is not the best idea. Today, 12/5 I asked about hop utilizayion on BS. 12/5/20 V2.1 downloaded. That is most recent used version. Trying to figure out where the calculation is for 1.25 water to 1lb of grain Future brew notes: From now on fill conical to 11.25 gallons. Make certain there is a sanitized carboy to take acess wort. Need to set Water/grain ratio and check it before brewing. Take laptop to brewery and use session sheet during brewing process. 3/21/21 - Version moved to 2.3. Mash and water ratios better defined. Also, new water profile set.
