Notes

So, thinking about a malt forward beer, I will go for 2:! Chloride forwards. Target alkalinity of 80

1ml/l of HCl, and 0.4ml/L of H2SO4

Masg pH bang on at 5.3

Preboil 27.5L at 13C 1044 which gives 1048 at 20C. THis is 95% efficiency pre boil

Post boil, in fermenter 23L at 1050. 83% brewhouse eff

Second brewing 21/12/20 - subbed out EKG for styrian goldings (celeia) for bittering, matching the ibus. Ended up with 23L at 1047..slightly lower efficiency (shrug).

3rd brewing 5/3/21 - ended up with 22l at 1052 in fermenter. Pitched Adnams yeast. at 18C

4th brewing 5/6/21 for the festival. Preboil 30l at 1044. Hops used as in the recipe - EKG and Fuggles. Using CML Four yeast.
