IN THE SHED 19TH JULY (STRANGE-SMIFF)

Post by GARYSMIFF » Sun Jul 19, 2009 12:45 pm

Hello All,

Today I decided to brew

2.0kg Larger Malt
1.3Kg Wheat Malt
0.5Kg Crystal Malt

.5Kg White Sugar boiled in a pan with juice of a lemon until hard Crack, to be added at the last 15 of the boil.

Hops:
30gms Nelson Sauvin 11.5% @ 60, love the wine like flavor they have.
20gms Hallertauer Aroma 6.4% @ FO

Might do a 90 boil after reading wheerler's info on hops but he also says you can add some grain in the copper as did I note that Berry said the same. I'll see how how it goes.

Big Spoon of my Orange Jam that I almost let burn when I made it last year, will added to the last 15


Just about to xfr to the copper.


HOP TIME! Boil is a rolling.

Hops in, smelling like a Malty fine wine in the shed, Bacon sandwich me thinks now.
Just managed to burm my finger on the sugar, BUGGER :twisted:

In the FV yeast about to go in. 5hrs

SG 1048 mashed @ 64

Yeast =WB-06 from my last 2 Wheat Beers and some S-04 from last Dark Beer.
Yeast is lookng fantastic. :D

OOH this is going to be a smooth hoppy brew.

Just thought I should report back, this realy is a fantastic brew ( defo in My top Ten ).


Slightly darker than Golden syrup colour
Its too bitter for me at the moment but not Harsh ( but it is young), it has a Grapefruit/Orange sweet malt sent that is realy realy good.I get a fresh grass kick on first sip then it has a dry mouthg feel, bugger if I knew how to explain it to you I would, need to look up how they judge beers, I cant drink any more or I'll be saying, its very good go make some...

"it's very good go make some"
that said my Father says I WOULD win an award with my Stout-Smiff even though some say its a Porter.
Maybe I'm on a roll or lucky streak.
Was going to make a Breakfast brew this weekend but Family issues have paused the brewing.

Mr C.B. Wood RIP
