Notes



90 mins mash due to the unmalted wheat - (Doing 60 min with spaghetti)

Overcooking the spaghetti(100% durumwheat), and adding it to the mash together with the water it has cooked in.

Pitching Amalgamation starter at 17-18C, letting it rise to 20C.

Bottled after about 6 weeks.

Made 2L yeast starter out of an 3 weeks expired TYB Amalgamation vial. Aluminium on top, and minimum spin on the stir plate for a semi-aerobic prop. I let it go for 6 days on the plate, then let it get 3 days standing still. The starter smelt really fruity. (The plan was originally to decant some of the starter wort. I think I maximum decanted 0.5L off in fear of loosing healthy cells, which I probably did)

Slightly longer primary fermentation in general (3-6 weeks). Perceived bitterness may be quite a bit lower than the same wort fermented with a clean ale yeast.
