Smoked beer brewday

Post by leedsbrew » Tue Mar 02, 2021 4:50 pm

Now chaps.

Fired up the brew kettle the other day to get a smoked beer on the go.
Ended up splitting the batch between Lallamand kolsch and CML Hell yeasts. The former is in the Ferm fridge at 18, the latter fermenting on a corni at room temp, but at 20psi.

Smooth brewday all in all, apart from gusts of wind blowing out my gas burner a couple of times. ImageImageImage

Little video of the snaps I took on the day.

What does fermenting under pressure do? Allow you to ferment at a higher temp?
Never enough time...

Yeah, it suppresses ester production so can ferment warmer, faster and carbonates quicker
