Notes

BREGR NOTES

MM Kit
Rate: 7/10
ABV: 4.7%
Yeast attenuation: 70-75%
My attenuation: 71%

Recipe: OG: 1050 FG: 1009 ABV: 5.4%
Achieved: OG: 1050 FG: 1014 ABV: 4.7%

Notes: Added 20g Coriander, and zest of 5 tangerine. Didn’t have pepper corns.

Yeast produced no bubbles, so after 2 days added a Saflager-189 I happened to have in fridge. This also produce no bubbles, but it did ferment. Not sure what happened.

Do again: Maybe. Nice orange came though. Good flavour for under strength.
