TTL 23/01/09

Post by Alcopup » Sat Jan 24, 2009 11:33 am

Did a TTL clone yesterday based on Daabs recipe

4,460 MO

Hop Bill:

styrian goldings hops 42gm
fuggles hops 35 gm both at start of boil
last 15 mins
goldings hops 15gm
irish moss 10 gm

Mash Schedule:

90 mins at 66c(151F)

Only difference was I first wort hopped the fuggles and then steeped styrians (I think a metric shedload was the recommended amount) at 80C

Mashing at 66
Image

pH at around 5.5ish
Image

I dont know why by I always do a remaining starch test with some iodophor from the 1st runnings - limited info from it other than something has happened!
Image

First runnings (with obligatory brew helper)
Image

First hop addition weighed out
Image

Nice rolling boil
Image

Boiler emptying - lots of break material
Image

Fermenting away nicely!

Broke my hydrometer so no OG readings but I hit my target volume so am hoping all will be well.

That looks good.

I'd give it a go tomorrow myself, but my fermenting cupboard is full :(
