--------
20L, 70% efficiency

OG 1.045
FG 1.011
ABV 4.4%
IBU 30

CaSO4 and CaCl2 added to achieve ~ Ca 90 ppm with the SO4:Cl ratio at ~1:1 starting from rainwater so no Na, Mg or CO3. For me, using water measured to contain <0.1mg of any of the brewing ions, 6g each of CaSO4 and CaCl2 in 35L of water.

2.15kg Thomas Fawcett's floor malted MO (49%)
1.0 kg Weyermann Rye (23%)
1.0kg Weyermann Vienna (23%)
0.2kg Weyermann Carabohemian (5%)

66C single infusion mash, 75C mash out

Hopping schedule
Whatever bittering hop I have at 60 min to hit a total IBU of 30
2g/L Victoria (10% AA) at 20 and whirlpool (~10 mins after flameout, left to steep for 10 mins)

Yeast is normally WY1272 (American Ale II) but current batches are using the Gigayeast Vermont IPA

Notes: Brew day: Sunday March 30, 2013.

Steeped 0.5 lbs of 30-40L Crystal for 30 mins @160-170F. 1 TBSP of Irish Mosh @ 15 mins of boil.

Boil ended with 9L (2.4G). Topped up with three (and a bit) 1G water jugs.

OG: 1.042. 2 Gravity points lower than target. 2 possible reasons: (i) perhaps because I added a little bit too much water from the 4th water jug. (ii) I also pitched my yeast first and grabbed my gravity sample after. 2nd time in a row I made this mistake. (iii) I might not have added the full amount of LME. Its tough to get absolutely all of the extract out of the jug.

03/31: Signs of fermentation 12 hours after pitching.

Expectations: bare-bones, sessionable English best bitter with traditional characterisitcs from the Nottingham yeast and willamette hops (fruity/floral/peppery) and hopefully a well-balanced malt backbone with the crystal 40L and amber LME. Fermentation temp is a little high, around 23-24C, so it might have dominating fruity characteristics (hopefully not off-flavours).

Dry hopped with 1 oz. of Goldings hops. Probably domestic. Hopefully will add a subtle (maybe not even noticeable) earthy/spicy/floral aroma. Maybe it will complement the spiciness/floral of the willamete aroma hops.

Bottles:
30x355ml = 10.65L
10x800ml = 8L
2x750ml = 1.5L
4x500ml = 2L

TOTAL = 22.15L

Bottling day: 04/14/2014. 3 oz of corn sugar with 2 cups of boiled water to make 0.81 volumes of C02 (with 1.75 volumes of calculated C02). Broke my second hydrometer when reaching for my scale. :(

Tasting day: 05/12/2004. 2 weeks bottle conditioned, 2 weeks in fridge. Fuller's London Pride Premium Bitter for comparison.

Appearance: ASA: dark, ruby red and hazy. little to no head retention. FLP: golden orange and light, medium head the fades within 10 seconds.

Smell: ASA: slight caramel and nutty. Also pretty earthy. FLP: more of a "beer" smell and slightly metallic? Smells crisp. Floral and earthy.

Taste: caramel again. light and refreshing, sessionable. fairly malty with slight fruit notes. very enjoyable. low-medium bitterness. FLP: about same medium bitterness with more of an earthy character. Just as sessionable/enjoyable. I like mine a little better though.

Mouthfeel: little to no carbonation in both. no bubbles present. medium body for both? I dont see much of a difference in mouthfeel. FLP has a lighter mouthfeel/body. It just kind of rolls of the tongue. Mine is slightly more viscous.

Overall: both very drinkable, as they should be. Mine is overall more caramelly/nutty and feels heavier despite the much lower abv. I tend to like mine more as it falls more on the caramelly/fruity side, while FLP is earthy and resiny.

Notes: Strike water as always, is mash water needed plus the 2g. of underlayment. Make sure to use the full volume of water when calculating the strike temp!!

Made starter from 3000ml of spring water and .75lb. of DME.

Mashed in OK - shooting for 122, got 124. Other targets good. Sparged for 90 minutes - no stickies, no problems!!

First runnings - 1.063
Last runnings - 1.010
Preboil gravity - 1.041

Boiled 90 minutes and added spices to wort before whirlpool - let sit 10 minutes. Added 3 qts. to bring OG to 1.050. Cooled and into the fermenter - 66 degrees! Collected 11+ g. Pitched yeast immediately and into the fridge at 68. Activity apparent after 16 hours. Kept at 68 for 3 days, up to 70 for one and up to 72 for another. Gravity then at 1.011. Crashed.

Into kegs after another week - tasted fantastic - very wit-like! This one went Very fast. Very refreshing - great daytime summer beer. But near the end it had lost its cloudiness and a little of the good spice flavorings. Drink this one fresh!
