Notes
Version 6 of North Cro Irish Red, adapted from Captain Crack Sparrow, from the You Tube Channel THE APARTMENT BREWER.
This style is a good fit for an overnight saccharification rest, if desired. The mash is not a multistep mash, so this works well. It it's done as a regular mash, it should be a 75 minute mash
Mash in at 153° F. Stir rapidly. After all is combined very well, allow to rest about 10 min, then measure pH. If it is higher than 5.45, add acid when circulation begins to bring it to down.
Open all valves that need to be opened, and begin recirculation. Stir the mash. Measure pH after 10 min in, and add acid if necessary.
ncrease power to 85% and allow the ramp-up to 168° F for the mash-out/vorlauf. Mash-out is of 15 minute duration.
RAISING THE GRAIN BASKET
Turn off recirculation. Raise the grain basket and hang on side of kettle as usual.
Turn off valves, making sure the 3-way whirlpool valve is open only on the RIGHT side, not the mash recirculating side. Remove small hose from recirculation flow meter, and allow to empty into a vessel, then put liquid back in kettle. Connect long recirculation hose to left side of 3-way valve.
RECIRCULATION OVER GRAINS
Secure recirculation hose over grain basket using a clamp. Now, open 3-way valve to center position. Start recirculation, regulating flow rate through pump exit valve. Allow to recirculate over grains for 15 minutes at a moderate flow rate.
DRAINING GRAIN BASKET
Adjust 3-way valve so recirculation valve (left side) is closed. Remove long recirculation hose and allow to drain into vessel, then return liquid to kettle.
Allow grain basket to drain for 15 minutes, then remove basket and hang over bucket to catch remaining fluid draining. In the meantime, allow whirlpool recirculation to proceed as liquid ramps up to a boil. When draining is complete, add remaining liquid to kettle.
RAMPING UP TO A BOIL
Turn off pump, shut off all valves, then continue with ramp up to boil. Drain all hoses into bucket, then collect sample for OG, pH, etc. Put remaining liquid in kettle.
