Notes

Experiment: absolutely no body to support alcohol and hops. See how it works.


no salt additives, water should be soft.

pH around 5.4

Result:
32L of wort, 1.057 before sugar addition. Sugar added second day of fermentation, dissolved in 2L of wort. Resulted OG will be 1.063 - too low for tripel but so be it. Yeast will be healthier for Quadrupel. Alc percentage expected at 6.6%.

22.09.2015. FG = 1.010. Alc. 7.1. 110g southern aroma added for dry hopping.
