Notes: For this recipe I'm going for a light-colored ale. I didn't want to brew an IPA-style hop bomb. I also didn't want to brew another lager, but I did want to brew something more "shareable" than a porter, stout, etc. So, I came up with this recipe for what would be a balanced, gold-colored ale with a lot of malt in it.
I've had problems with head retention, so I threw in 3 oz of wheat malt to try to help with that.
I'm trying the Munton's Gold yeast for the first time. I want to like it because it's so damn cheap. This seems like a good recipe to test it out on. |

Notes: This is experimental. Aiming for a fairly malty, silky mouthfeel and hoppy ale. American Amber Ale. Exclusively UK malt, but all USA hops. US05 yeast. A real hybrid.
Should be ready just in time for the end of lockdown. Hence the name.
Preboil gravity hit 1.048. Good bit higher than predicted.
OG estimated at 1.052. Lower than predicted.
Yeast rehydrated in 30c. Pitched into wort at 16-17c. Now in fermentation chamber set to 17.5c.
Now leave for two weeks
Dry hop with three days left.
When dry hopped noticed they were very warm at 20c-21c. Moved into the house been at 17-18c for two days.
Day 11
G 1.022...both ferms.... Covered and left sample in the fridge overnight. Tastes very good. Massive hop aroma, good bite, silky mouthfeel and malty backbone. A little on the sweet side, which I like, but am not prepared to risk bottle bombs for...
G 1.020 day 14 Leave another week.
Predict it will get to 1.015 by next weekend and will bottle.
Day 17
G 1.016 non numbered
G 1.018 numbered
Both fermentors now different.
Day 20
G 1.014 non numbered
G 1.015 numbered
Day 22
G 1.014 numbered
G 1.014 non numbered
Sugar solution added to primary before bottling. On bottling, the caps (placed on top of the bottles prior to capping) were rattling with the CO2....not a great sign. Caps watched for signs of bulging and immediately put in the fridge.
Two weeks after bottle conditioning tastes more bitter than intended due to no chill method and extended hop isomerisation temp time. Intended Amber Ale but is more like a malty IPA now. Still very good though. Head retention impressive with good lacing, see photos. |
