Notes: 4-16-2017
Brewday. What a mess. I'm not sure if it was being unfamiliar with darker malts, or that I ground my grain too fine, but the bag became clogged within a few minutes. Pretty much had to stir and scrape the bag for the entire 90 min mash. The upside to this is that is that I hit 80% efficiency, my highest ever. And this beer is going to now be an 8.5% monster.
Also had some wild temp fluctuations while trying to figure out why my sparge was sticking. 1st I forgot to turn the heat down to 156 while adding grain, so it stayed at 165 for a couple of minutes. Then, when everything was getting backed up, the top kettle temp dropped into the 130's while the bottom temp probe showed 154. Eventually, with a lot of stirring, it all evened out about 30 minutes into the mash.
OG = 1.080
4-17-2017
Rehydrated and pitched the K-97 at the same time as the US-05 for the Garage Floor IPA.
5-15-2017
Transferred to keg. FG=1.021, 7.74% ABV
7-14-2017
Finally finished this off. Was a very smooth drinking stout for my first try. Next time try some vanilla and a little less of the chocolate roast flavor. |

Notes: Recipe adapted from Jen Talley, given during a podcast (Brewstrong, I think?).
Use two packs dry yeast, rehydrated. If not Mangrove Jack’s M84, can use Saflager 34/70, or WLP830 or Wyeast 2124 liquid yeast.. All are the same Weihenstephan strain, as far as I know. |

| Notes: LHBS had a new to me hop, German hull melon. Figured it'd go well with mosaic bravo is there to get the ibu's up. hit mash temp fine. It's 30 degrees outside so the wort will slowly cool, making my ibus higher than calculated. Still need to add dry hop. 1 oz mosaic, .25 oz German hull melon. |
