Double brew day today, brew 2 has been done before. Brew 1 was altered by accidentally adding first batch of late hops to the wrong brew! Brew 1 was going to be a willamette/bobek brew. Any thoughts how this might turn out? I suspect it will be fine, actually quite looking forward to it! Any luck it will be somewhere between Tribute and Wherry!! Yum...

Beer 1:
4.7kg MO
0.25 Crystal
0.1 Wheat
15g Fuggles 90 mins
12g Bobek 90 mins
35g Cascade 15 mins
20g Willamette 10 mins
20g Bobek 10 mins
20g Bobek 1 min
30g Willamette 1 min

as mentioned, i added the 35g cascade by mistake, they were weighed out ready for brew 2. Brew 1 was meant to be all willamette and bobek. Next time!

Brew 2:
4.8kg MO
0.25 Wheat
0.1 Caramalt
12g Centennial 90 mins
35g Cascade 15 mins
50g Cascade 5 mins

Title of this post due to current high temperatures. I only have 1 temperature system for FV. Second brew started at 22degC at 1pm, and rose to 25deg C by 4pm! This is my Atc 800+++ for brew 2. Current pool temp is 19deg C! Time for a dip!

Like it!

Ha......nice.
My ATC 800+ has broke! Waiting for Forttex to sort it

Hi Jubby, do you want to borrow the pool?

I need to order an ATC800+ from them, spent the weekend rearranging the shed ready for a second fridge. Don't want to go through this again, been impossible to keep the second batch cool. Hope it turns out ok

Cracking!

Thanks for the offer, but no Forttex have sent a new one which should have arrived by the time i return home which is good news because i need to brew a couple of batches.

See you on the 30th with a sample of the East India IPA.
