Notes: 250g crystal malt steeped in 1 litre of water. Boil litre of water then leave to cool for 10 mins then leave grains to steep in water for 35 minutes.
Start boil of 12.5 litres of water in time to add 1.5 lite of steeped grains, 2 kg light DME and 10 g Chinook.
Problems with stove trying to keep heat at boil. Eventually kept hob on dial 5 throughout boil which kept a consistent boil without boil over.
Side note. Using 17 g of yeast as had 5.5 left in a pack to use up.
At flame out let the wort sit for 5 mins then add 15g hops. Let stand for a further 17mins then add to cold water for 12mins and add further 16g hops. Replace water and let wort stand in cold water for a further 7 mins then add to fer-mentor and pitch yeast.
Side note: put finger in wort and tried. Wort tasted pretty sharp and bitter.
Cooling taking longer than expected in sink for this amount of wort so drained water in sink after 5 mins and by half and filled back up with cold water while wort stood in sink. did the same at 10 mins and let stand for a further 2mins in fresh cold water before adding last whirlpool hop addition.
Like a complete duff I added 1 litre of warm tap water and 2 litres of cold tap water to the fermentor to get down to temp.
Put back in water bath before pitching yeast. pitched yeast at about 34 degrees as couldn't cool in time for restaurant reservation. Better time management next time!
Checked the fermentor the next morning and nothing really happening. Moved the fermentor about a bit and a couple of bubbles from the top tube happening. Later that day things started happening and fermenting under way. Temperature seems to be holding at about 19 to 20 degrees in cupboard at high level.
6 days fermenting and bubbling almost stopped. Dry hopping in the primary fermentor which I will leave for a further 5 days until bottling.
Decided to rack off 5 litre's into a Carboy and dry hop to see if there is a difference in taste to the brews.
Dry hopps for Carboy use quantities above /3 so:
Motueka = 28/3 = 9g in Secondary and 19 in primary.
Cascade =10/3 = 4g in Secondary and 6g in primary.
Successful sparge to secondary fermentor using new 15 litre fermentor with tap. Tried beer at this stage. A little more bitter than expected but tastes pretty good after 6 days fermenting with decent amount of hoppiness but still needs that aroma hop burst and flavour which I'm hoping the dry hopping will give. |
