Notes

Changes from V1

  • Significantly softer water profile and more balanced
  • Aromatic instead of Caramunich I
  • Eliminated Pale Malt
  • Increased Carahell
  • 50:50 homemade candi syrup to candi sugar
    added at flameout
  • Reduced bitterness BU:GU 0.39 to 0.29
  • Reduced mash temp
  • Fermentation temp control
  • Increased carbonation

    Started fermentation at 18 C for several days. It was slow ... and remains slow. Repitched after 5 days but not enough. After 17 days I'm at 1030 so created a new starter with a lot of yeast.
