Old P ( or so i hope!!)

Post by the red devil » Tue Oct 21, 2008 5:23 pm

Started this recipe around 9:30 this morning:-

0.15 kg Treacle (197.0 EBC) Extract 2.15 %
5.50 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter (5.9 EBC) Grain 78.80 %
0.46 kg Caramel/Crystal Malt - 10L (19.7 EBC) Grain 6.59 %
0.15 kg Wheat, Torrified (3.3 EBC) Grain 2.15 %
0.12 kg Chocolate Malt (886.5 EBC) Grain 1.72 %
40.00 gm Northern Brewer [8.50 %] (90 min) Hops 27.5 IBU
20.00 gm Fuggles [4.50 %] (15 min) Hops 3.4 IBU
20.00 gm Fuggles [4.50 %] (2 min) Hops 0.6 IBU
0.30 kg Brown Sugar, Dark (98.5 EBC) Sugar 4.30 %
0.30 kg Sugar, Table (Sucrose) (2.0 EBC) Sugar 4.30 %
Decided to use two packets of S-04, hope they don't go too mad!
Here's a few pics.

Grain bed was around 64 after 90 mins mash

First run-off was around 1074
Image

Centre of grain bed was 68ish during sparging (fly)
Image

Just coming to the boil
Image

Good boil so add the 90 min hops
Image

15 to go so add second hops, sugar etc
Image

Both yeasts looking good!
Image

Final SG around 1068 (a couple down on expected) after cooling to 26°C.

Will add more tomorrow if fermentation is OK :)
