Total water used 6.6

Temp gauge mishap!? strike temp 159. after grains temp 143, wft. flame on till temp 150. (But was my themometer just so off?!) Later mesauring temp for samples it was really screwy, saying ground water was 98 and then bouncing around, MFer! gonna buy a good one.
Post 70 minute boil ==> 4.25g into fermentor. ~0.25 left in kettle
after boil 22.0Brix = 1.092
Then clarified sample from fermenter = SG 1.087 (21.6 brix)
so pretty shity efficiency... ?!?!? <--high gravity
Pitched 1/23 at 10pm at 65F.
1/24 am - chugging away. Temp read 70 added blanket. Plan to free rise up to 80 for 5 days.
1/31 Brix 10.4.
2/2 Brix 10.3 Temp down to 60
2/7 Brix 10.2 = 1.013. Transferred to Keg (~4-4.2 gallons not sure). purged co2 Plan to bulk age 2 months at 50F
Kept a mason jar of yeast slurry to repitch at bottling.
6 months bulk aging in keg
July 5 2018:
Brix 9.8/9.7 = 1.010 = 9.8%ABV!
weight of full corney = 42.8
volume by weight: 4.014
Will add a fresh starter of wlp540 and priming sugar to bottle
starter = 400ml of 1.036 and two teaspoons from the old slurry
7-10-18: Bottled 2.8 vols and using 125 grams of corn sugar and yeast slurry off of the Keg.

Notes: 2 yeast strains pitched at same time; t-58 and 1214. Actually hit a gravity of 1.062. 9/8/15. Got about 5.5 gallons out of this one. Hopefully, I can top it off with the brett IPA and it will be a really well balanced beer. |

Notes: Brewed 01.09.15
First brewday with 30PSI KAB4 burner, first 5-gallon brewday in a while.
Brew went well. KAB4 is a G-D beast. I had a massive boilover with just 7 gallons in a 15 gallon kettle.
Ended up with 4.5 gallons in a 6 gallon fermenter. OG was only 1.060 vs. the expected 1.068. Had reserved about an extra gallon of wort for starters... leave that be next time. Need to dial in the new burner in my system.
Chilled to 78 degree F and allowed to chill overnight in sealed kettle (alum stockpot). Pitched full starter and beer to fermenter 01.10.15 ~0900. Temp at 64 degrees F.
01.11.15 am. Active fermentation.
01.12.15 pm, pulled dirty airlock and capped with foil. Small blowoff.
01.15.15 pulled foil cap and added clean airlock.
03.20.15 some tasting notes - Grain bill is needlessly complex and unfortunately results in a competition with the yeast character. For the next brew, recommend a much simpler grain bill - see Brewing Classic Styles. |
