Taste Notes
Best tasting brew yet. Dry and crisp with a nice subtle hop finish in the background, seriously could win contest but for a slight lack of clarity/chill haze. will try again but substiture the flaked barley, maybe try different mash profile to get effects of the flaked Barley?Notes
TIME TO BREW: 7 hrs
Use a 90-minute boil.
First temp step was a bit all over the place.
Ph at about 5.0 from what I could tell with shitty strips
Used about 8.5 Gallons water, Sparged to 7 in the boil pot and draining cooler completely in the process
Pre-Boil Gravity 1.042
Post boil gravity 1.052
Poured 4.5 gallons into fermenter and then could not settle out any more trub, put remaining 1 G into fridge overnight and was able to settle out enough to next AM fill fermentor to the 5 gallon line
Pitched at 58 F
initial Set Point at 56 (Yeast fermentation reccomendation is 50 - 55)
Fermentation begining after 17 hours
1.018 after 8 days
Primary done at 8 Days, Turned off temp control for Diacetyl rest for three days, modified fermentation schedule accordingly
Started lagering by crashing it down to 40 degrees right after transfer, drift it down a degree a day to 34This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
