Brew No.33 FIRST BREW WITH NEW WATER TREATMENT (LESS CAMPDEN) couldn’t taste difference. Rate: 8/10 ABV: 5% Yeast attenuation: 63-70% My attenuation: 69% Recipe: OG: 1051 FG: 1012 ABV: 5.2% Achieved: OG: 1054 FG: 1016 ABV: 5% Notes: Yeast suggestions: 1st - WLP 006 Bedford Ale or 2nd - WLP 002 English ale or WYEAST 1968 London ESB Added 150g Belgium candy rock sugar, as fed up with going under OG. Poured wert into fermenter straight from tap (no tube) for first time. To introduce more O2. Ridiculously too carbonated. Do again: Yes. But maybe less crystal?
