WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Date 31/08/17

steep grain as suggested on pack - and adding steeping grains into boil at 30mins. boil kettle set aside and add grains for 20 mins to steep then add to boil. Boiled kettle then poured into bowl at 7.5mins and let sit till 10mins then added grains for 20 then added to boil.

Boiling 5 litres of water as steeping grains in 1 litre to give 6 litres then adding 1litre of cold at fermenting total

Add hops as schedule. weighed out and leaving on side. Hoping non of the smell, flavour is lost as out in the elements. Vic secret smells outrageous! Amarillo hops is in a pack as finishing hops and using as suggested. Place in a cup of boiling water and let stand for 10mins then add to the fermentor. adding liquid and bag to fermentor. (not hopback)

Note let fermenter cool for 10 before adding vic secret then changed ice and water to cool further for 10.

Let cool for a further 10 mins while finishing hops were sitting in cup water before adding to fermenter. Amarillo hops in tea bag

added 2 litres of cold water to fermenter to get to 6 litres

waited 10mins to pitch yeast as first reading at 22 degrees. Pitched yeast at approx 20 d and shook like f**k. Done

Date 06/09/17

After 6 days fermenting yeast has really slowed down. Going to rack half off and dry hop with vic secret (adding hops first then racking onto, and dry hop in the primary with 20 g wai-iti. Also going to bottle one beer now to see how it tastes. Shook both fermentors a little to swirl hops about.

After racking probably only got 2.5litre in both vessels left inc one bottled beer.
