Notes

Batch 2017-10

Changes since v1.2. Changed the malt bill to add a bit more body. Added 5% Carapils, 5% Wheat malt and 4% dextrose to up the booze and dry it out. Upped the OG from 1.058 to 1.063 to make it more IPA than APA. Probably unnecessarily complex (first time Ive used more than 2/3 malts in a pale for a long time), but very similar to Jacobs DIPA malt bill which was fucking awesome.

Thursday 4th May 2017 - 1.75L starter of WY1318 on striplate (this will be generation 2 / first repitch).

Sunday 7th March - Mashed in at 64C. Stirred after 15 mins, mash temp 63.5C. Stirred again after 30 mins, 63.5C so turned on the heat. Heating up to 67C and then turned off the heat. Mash pH = 5.36.

Preboil OG = 1.054. pH = 5.32. Total preboil volume approx 27L.

Added half the whirlpool hops at FO and they had about 10 mins at 95C+ before I chilled to 75C for the second half of hops. They also got about 10 mins at 70C+ before chilling to pitching temp.

I forgot to add the glucose during the boil so will add it a couple of days into fermentation.

24L at 1.063!

Monday 15th May 2017 - I had intended on DH in primary and then in keg but when I attempted to open in primary I got a beer shower, the blow off tube connected to the keg had clogged and the beer was already under pressure. So in the end I decided to go straight to the DH keg.

Took a sample to taste and measure FG. FG = 1.018. 6.0% ABV. Should I run a blend of yeasts in future? tasted very hoppy considering no DH yet. Very Columbus dank.

Tranferred into DH keg onto 100g DH. Went with less hops and more fruity varieties than originally intended, as the beer already tasted plenty dank so I didnt think it needed any more columbus.

Wed 17th May 2017 - Had been periodically agitating the DH by shaking and bubbling CO2. Opened the keg and added a 2nd DH of just Mosaic. In total the DH is about 9 g/L with a little over 2/3 Mosaic. Plan is to crash and transfer to serving keg on Friday.
