Notes: Is this too bitter for bitter? I've been wondering about bitterness calculations, and seeing information in magazines that seems to indicate I'm undershooting if I want the level of bitterness suggested for the style. I've decided I will try a couple of batches where I intentionally "over-hop" to see if the beers taste and smell like the styles I'm going for.
yeast starter: 4 oz. dry malt plus a few hop pellets and a dash of yeast nutrient in 1500 ml of water, boiled 10 minutes and then cooled
brew day: Friday, November 24
clear skies, 42 degrees F air temp, no wind
grain temp 60 degrees F
invert sugar was a late addition to the recipe. been looking at that jar of invert sugar for over a year, wondering when it would come in handy. Fits in a Burton Ale recipe perfectly, I said to myself.
boiled 7 gallons
transferred 5.5 gallons to fermenter, O.G. 1.068
Saturday, December 9
F.G. 1.015

Notes: This Briess special roast supposed to have a soughdough twang so putting it to the test! I am also coincidentally streamlining my inventory of stuff that does not taste anything like Fullers.
Quoting morebeer - "Use it at around 10% of your recipe to get the signature Sourdough flavor that many brewers appreciate "
I wanted to make a tocobaga clone but didn't quite have all the hops required.
Note: 5 days in keg and tried sample. melanoidin malt probably a little heavy. Was expecting bigger hop presence, but maltiness is overpowering
Update: A day or two later it really rounded out. i might do this recipe again. |
