Amen Brother!

Mashing ATM it's turned into a pale ale:rolleyes:

I guess that's what happens when it's diy malting ...

I couldn't wait to brew this so mashed in when I got home.

I'll no chill in the kettle tonight that way I can pitch it onto the Nova lager yeast cake after transfer tomorrow - that way I won't have to rush it on a work day;).

What do you think about the nova lager yeast?

I’ll be brewing a couple more Bitters using the slurry from imperial pub.

So I've brewed one rice lager started fermentation at 12c for 3 days where it ripped through the wort this beer is very clean with only a tiny bit of sulphur but that's because things went sideways towards the end.
The rice beer has a slight lemon note to it which I know 34/70 was good for but I used Sazz late so could be this.

The second beer I ferment on the cake but this time at 19c and no kidding as you might expect the air lock went nuts within the hour :p.

I've not tasted this beer but apparently Nova is good at ale temps.

I spunded both at finish to 15psi but I did see that maybe this yeast might not respond well to pressure you'll have to find that out.

OK so this is all Gluten free fermentation where I know fermentation can run a different course.

My next is voss ginger wheat, same as before but with more ginger. And same route for carbonation, without releasing any CO2.
Gotta get the hang of this ;)

Done that one. Following carbonation.

Done brewing Q2: golden beach

Planning "sort of De Koninck" today

Gotta get my stocks back up :p
 
Shady Bohemian is in the kettle right now, switching the hops schedule to an ounce of my homegrown Cluster at 60 and two of my Saaz at 15.

Was planning on a dry stout next but I’ll probably do a batch of Shore Leave Cali Common instead.

I’m going to pitch both with M54.
 
Looking to do another Bunyip batch, this time with Galaxy and Talus. I need to start using up a lot of hops all of a sudden :D I also need a good light lager recipe to use some German noble hops. I'm thinking just Pilsen and Carapils, bittered with Magnum, and then the fancy hops in at 10 minutes.

Is Magnum your go-to for bittering? Just curious. My LHBS seems to prefer (and push) Warrior for bitterness. At 16 AAU, doesn’t take much. It can deliver some “grassy” notes if over-hopped, but the bitterness might eat your taste buds off before you taste the grass clippings. He’s a beer judge apparently, so I like to compare notes from an “expert” with those of us home brewers. What’s the plusses and negatives “”(other than “it’s what I have”) of Magnum?

It's German and I already have some. It seems like a popular bittering hop for folks around here
