Notes
Treat water previous evening with 2tsp Epsom and 2 tsp Gypsum to each HLT.
Start adding grains and strike water to tun at 0900. Mash start 0920. Start recirculating at 1010.
Start sparge and runoff to kettle at 1055. Collect 48 Litres.
Boiling at 1140 add 20gms Pacific Gem into boil.
Add 40gms Zythos and 2tsp Irish Moss at 1250 for last 10 minutes.
Flame out at 1300. Start water and fan cooling at 1300. Stop cooling at 88 - 90C wait and start Whirlpooling with 225gms Fresh Cascade Taipari Hops at 86C - Bloody rubber dam intake from kettle clogged no run to pump. Get rid of rubber dam and elbow and bang the valve with rubber handle finally getting run but now temp less than 80C bring temp up to 86C with gas - recirculation still not happening due to hop cones getting into lines and pump - give up and will manual whirlpool when cooled. Manual whirlpool 24C for 1 1/2 minutes at 1450.
Start runoff to SS64 at 1540/ 23C with 38/39L total after boil etc...
O.G. 1054 = 70% efficiency nice clear golden colour. Collect 36L.
Pitch Yeast ( 400ml yeast cake, pour off wort add 300ml filtered water - S04 ex brew50 taken on 26/1 ) at 1715.
Wednesday 0800 yeast starting to form on top of beer and light bubbling started at 1330.
Thursday 18th continuous bubbling with pleasant yeast smell 23.6C and 19.9 ambient temp.
Sunday21, Monday 22 slow bubbling every 20secs.
Tuesday 23/2 take off 750ml yeast under CO2 pressure 2psi and sample for gravity reading 1016 giving 5.12%. Taste and smell slightly lollyish?? Leave for another day or so and monitor bubbling, smell and taste.
Wed 24/2 still light lolly smell but taste improved - runoff 18Litres to Keg4 4 x 500ml bottles and remaining 14 litres to MJ fermenter with 100gms Nelson Sauvin for Dry Hop. Into fridge set at 16C.
Sunday 28th smell and taste no hint of lollyness? clean light hoppy and smooth, fairly clear - drop temp to 3C to cold crash.
Sadly both kegs soon develop probable Diacetyl off flavour? After 2 months taste still there no dry hopped worse than dry hop. Very vegetal - too fast ferment or ferment not finished properly.
