500ml starter from wort

Pitched 23/4/23

Bubblin before bedtime

25/4/23 Added 80g of carafa special II in 120ml water (steeped) to fermenter. Hoping to add a bit more colour and subtle roast.

26/4/23 Raised temp to 21°C, then 22°C the next day

30/4/23 Tasting great, very clear, dark drown with lots of complex chocolate roastiness with hints of caramel. Finishes dry

5/5/23 Bottled

7/5/23 Kegged, tasting better, roastiness is mellowing with other flavours coming through.
