brewed on 07/04/2022. Added chocolate malt at 15min mark in mash. 5.25G AW mash. 1.25G AW, 2.5G RO sparge. Lost about 0.5G at end of sparge, need to increase sparge by 0.5G to account for loss. Also, efficiency dropped by 5% when increasing to 10lbs. Possibly do two sparges, over collect by 2 gallons and use the Digiboil. Possibly better efficiency, but will lose 1G at end, so it may be a wash. Definitely need to improve starter and o2 game, very slow start to fermentation, also very slow ...
Chris's SOQ 2 Salted Caramel Brownie English Porter. Inspired by the Adventurefuls Girl Scout Cookie. An indulgent brownie-inspired cookie with caramel-flavored crème and a hint of sea salt. https://www.girlscouts.org/en/cookies/cookie-flavors/adventurefuls-cookies.html
Simple Porter, can use only Crystal and roasted barley. Chocolate and CaraMunich contributes a fuller profile. my hops are South African.... NOT the best but I like local.
