Brew Day - 22/01/07 - Hob Goblin

Post by Orfy » Mon Jan 22, 2007 2:40 pm

It's mashing now.

I've altered my Goblin Clone. The Original was pretty spot on and a few people have copied it with success. Why change it?
I've done some reading and research and I want to get as close as the original as possible. If I find my new version is not as tastey then taste will win over authenticity.
Please let me have any comments that you think may improve it.

I've just added my Irish moss.

I was aiming for close to the Bottled Hobgoblin.
I think it may end up a little stronger though depending on how much I loose in the boil. My mas efficiency looks like it's nearer 85% than 75% I ended up 1046 preboil rather than the predicted 1040.

I've converted the recipe to extract and steep if anyone wants it.

All done. It's hitting near freezing out there. I think I boiled off more than normal so it looks like I ended up around 80% efficiency. with just under 22l in the carboy.

OK Orfy, I brewed my latest using your new recipie. If it turns out better than my last Hobgoblin then I'll blame you, lol.

Great Detail. I'm surprised that there are no later hop additions - the pint I had the other day on cask was pretty floral - do they dry hop at all?

The rest is the same.
Hey Daab

So would you steep the special grains in the wort or just in plain liquor? I have some idea there needs to be some diastatic element for complete steeping? Also, should the steep temp be somewhere between 65 & 75 to prevent extracting to many tannins? or just toss in with the boil? - again unsure what I have read, but have read something!!! :roll:

Cheers

what will the Cara-pils add - can it be left out or substituted for caramalt?

Excellent recipe, I will try it. Can I substitute carapils with brew body (malto dextrine)? I dont have carapils under hand right now.

Another question, is the orfy's recipe in hop pellets? I use pellets.

I think I will go with that in extract and steep the grains for 30 min at 68°:

G'day Orfy,
I have a sachet of Notts Ale yeast in the fridge and I now know what I'm going to do with it tomorrow!
Regarding the hops, I have only a few grams of Styrian Goldings left, but I've got plenty of Fuggles, EK Goldings and Challenger (7.9% A/A) - will Challenger work in lieu of Styrians?

One last dumb question....you recommend FW hopping - are you doing that with the "60 min" additions or is there something I missed in your recipe?

Cheers,
TL
