2 Brews, 3 days and 1 mash

Post by laithclark » Tue Nov 17, 2015 3:17 pm

I have just wrapped up my longest brewing session (I really must get a Braumeister!). I made one big batch of wort and split it in two to make Single Hop Pale Ales one with Cascade and the Other with East Kent Goldings.

Sunday night - overnight mash
To create the 32 litres of wort I needed here is the recipe I used:
3.02 KG Golden Promise
0.5KG Munich Malt
0.3 Kg Cara Pils
25g Black Malt

Mash at 66.7 degrees C, batch sparge
OG 1046
FG 1010
ABV 4%
EBU 12

Monday
Mash out with 4 batch sparges
16 litres direct to the boiler to brew, 16 litres retained in my bottling bucket with cling film over the top and the lid to keep it clean and fresh.

Cascade Pale Ale
70 minute boil
30 IBU
Final volume 10 litres
70 mins - 20g Cascade
10 mins - 8g Cascade
5 mins - 6g Cascade
30 min steep at 80 degrees - 24g Cascade

WLP001 Yeast - 11 litres into the fermentor

Tuesday
EKG Pale Ale
70 minute boil
30 IBU
Final volume 10 litres
70 mins - 16g EKG
10 mins - 10g EKG
5 mins - 8g EKG
30 min steep at 80 degrees - 23g EKG

WLP001 Yeast - 10.5 litres into the fermentor

Both now tucked up in the brew fridge
