Notes

Water filtered through a carbon 5 micron filter numerous times. Starting pH 6.89

3g Calcium Chloride Anhydrous added to aid amylase in starch conversion.

pH adjusted to 5.5 using (pool acid) HCl.

Carscade hops home grown in Mount Macedon Vic Australia.

SG 1044 or 1042 Tilt and or Hydrometer.

I am trying to make a pale beer in the style of Corona with a well balanced but obvious new world American hop flavor. Not lawnmower beer more like beer you might have on the beach after a good surf watching the sun go down. ABV 4.5 IBU 22

Starter temp should be 25C for about 4 hours to get a better lift off

I used Wheatbix a supermarket cereal for the wheat component.
