This was the brew I did yesterday, it's one of Aleman's recipes so it's going to be a good one .

23Ltrs

Malt Bill

Lager Malt 2000g
Marris Otter 2000g
Carapils 70g

Hop Bill
Styrian Golding 5.2% 30g 90 Mins
Styrian Golding 5.2% 30g 15 Mins
Styrian Golding 5.2% 20g steeped in at 80 degrees c

Yeast US-05

Piccy's!







Efficiency was a little lower than expected at at 67.8% so I ended up with 20 Ltrs rather than the 23 I was aiming for.

Nice work

Looks like a good brweday and a great recipe!

I might 0.5 inch that one for future use!

What sort of IBU's did you get? the Styrians I have are about 4.8% AA....

Cheers!

The IBU was 28

I've never steeped hops at 80C before so can't wait to see what the result will be

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your response!

I've steeped few times and the the idea (if not always the result) is to get more hop aroma... I say not always the result becasue the hops used for stteping need to have aroma to pass onto the beer...

I once used hops that didnt have much aroma left due to poor storage (After ourchase) on my part...

I'm sure it'll be great! Keep us posted!
