Micks Milky Stout Brew Session

Brew Session Info

1/31/2016
(Include any important notes from brew day until tasting)

First runnings measured 1.084, nice clean malty/oaty taste. Rehydrated dry yeast using 1 qt of 1.015 wort, got a nice slurry that I put in fermenter after 30 seconds of liquid oxygen to aerate wort. Fermentation took off quick, checked at 36 hrs and it has a nice high krausen with a fermentation temp of 67*F, very active fermentation.

Gravity Estimates

Based on boiling 7.25 gallonsliters at 1.043 for 92 minutes, this will decrease your wort by 1.53 gallonsliters, bringing your after boil OG to 1.052.

You wanted an OG of 1.060. It looks like it will be under.

Notes:

Nice clean taste, very clear dark toasty beer. Ended up with a little over 5 gallons in bottle bucket, primed to 2.1 CO2. Capped 52 12 ounce bottles and 1 bomber. I will let it sit for 2 weeks and test.

Notes:

Pulled a sample, with brew belt I have kept the fermenter at 71*F after initial fermentation slowed down as it dropped to 62* quick. Nice dark clear beer, measured 1.020 on both the Hydrometer and Refractometer(after using correction scale), which puts me currently at 6.49% ABV, has a nice roasted chocolate flavor starting, with a little bit of alcohol burn on the front side, very clean malty finish. I will leave in primary for a few more days and possibly bottle right at 2 weeks, no yeasty flavors that I can tell.
