Notes
2010.12.18 -Sample for annual Hattaway xmas party 2010.12.12 -Keg and carbonate 2010.12.05 @ 72° -add dry hop addition 2010.12.04 @ 71 2010.12.03 @ 70° 2010.11.30 @ 69° 2010.11.29 @ 68° 2010.11.28 @ 67° 2010.11.27 @ 65° -added starsan to airlock in smaller batch carboy after noticing no bubbles for 2 days (oops, not enough starsan) = issue resolved (cross fingers for no infections) 2010.11.25 @ 65° -yeast pitched I had difficulty with the new set up and I played with "ramping" the temp up with the new herms and ended up adding 2 hrs to the mash process. It started and sustained around 130° for two hours before I could get it to climb. I had issue with the grain bed becoming compacted I guess and the pumps couldn't get any wort moving. Next time rice hulls are a must but I am concerned about disturbing the bed during the process with the mash paddle. I think a msah tun snorkel might be a nice touch (j/k). I'm adding 1lb of Bisuit to compensate for not being able to source "Great Western Pale ALE Malt" Gypsum (a little bit hard) (I failed to add the Gypsum) Aim for 1.013 "the dryer the better" CYBI: (not cloned) suggested fermentation temp 60-65F This is based on the rebrew which was deemed "cloned." All recipes are (unless otherwise specified): 6 gallons post-boil, 70% efficiency, Morey for color, 15% evaporation, 7.27 gallons preboil, Rager IBU, and most hops are in grams not ounces. Most, if not all recipes are primary only (no secondary). If you brew this, please reply with your results for discussion.
