Substitutions

  • Gladfield Medium Crystal for Crystal 60

    30/4/17
  • Roast pecans in 175C oven for 8-12 min, coarse chop and add to mash.
  • No krausen on beer, maybe due to fat in nuts?

    7/5/17
  • SG 1016
  • Mild nutty aroma and hint of pecan.

    9/5/17
  • 2 vodka soaked vanilla beans added to fermenter.

    14/5/17

    31/5/17
  • Tasted mildly of nuts, smooth body with a nice vanilla backbone, pretty tasty.

    15/8/17
  • Lacks body and head, needs more oats, hint of banana as it warmed, pecan flavour has died a bit.
