Brew Session: Basic Vienna Lager

  • Water Infusion
  • Mash/Boil
  • Fermentation

First attempt. Excluded the acidulated malt on Johns recommendation. Mashing water was exactly 10 L. Single step mash at 65 (target) for 90 minutes.Did a mashout at 73 celcius for 15 minutes.Sparged with about 1.2 L water also at 73, wort ran clear so I didn't bother sparging more. Will make up for lost volume with cold water in the fermenter. (non-deliberate high gravity brewing?)Pre-boil gravity is 1.056. No idea what my boil volume was, but probably 11 litres. The calc estimates bringing to ...

Brew Session: Choccy Milkies

butterfunke 5/21/2022 12:00:00 AM
  • Water Infusion
  • Mash/Boil
  • Fermentation

first ever attemptstarted with 33 litres - targeting 27 litres pre-boil, 6 litres of grain absorption (6kg grain @ 1 L/kg absorption)pre-boil gravity came in low at around 1.043 :'(added 1 kg light DME to compensate. Not sure if my mash skills are shit or if I added too much water.Ended up with 26 L of wort. Added way too much water, overshot by 5 litres. Just add 1 extra litre for grain absorption next time.Looks like its stuck around 1.030 :/ OG was 1.068, probably was 1.062/1.063 without ...

Brew Session: Half-a-Weizen

butterfunke 4/30/2022 12:00:00 AM
  • Boil
  • Fermentation

Added extra light DME, total 0.45 kg. 1.22 kg of wheat DME. Upped the hops to 11g to match.Watered down to just 21 L instead of the usual 23 because I didn't have enough boxed water to go around. Has been fermenting at a pretty consistent 19-19.5 degrees and i get a decent amount of banana aroma - maybe everyone is talking out their arse about needing 24 degrees, or maybe it just isn't chilled and carbed yet which mutes the flavour.

Brew Session: Citrastic

butterfunke 4/14/2022 12:00:00 AM
  • Boil
  • Fermentation
  • Conditioning

Fermentation stalled after 3-4 days at 1.020, roused/re-oxygenated & pitched an additional US-05 packet to resume. Gravity steadily fell, looks like is finished again at 1.014.
