  • Brewing a duo tomorrow, my house pale (using kveik Stranda for the first time) and another Timothy Taylor Landlord Bitter clone. Empty kegs are sad kegs.

    • Brew #1 done, full GF clean nearly done. Chilled to 39C. First ever stuck sparge, milled too fine. Overshot my OG with 0,005. Blaming the fine crush.

        What % mash efficiency do you usually get with the GF ?

        • I usually get that 75%. I'm so used to it that I design around without worrying about it, a finer crush can push efficiency up, but it was a pita.

          On a side note brew #2 has just jumped to the second mash step at 68C

          • ^ ok cool. With BIAB I usually get 84-86%, but that might also be because I squeeze the sh|t out of my bag.

            I dropped to 77% with those Walts malts, but back to my normal numbers using Simpsons again with the last brew at 85.7%

            My BH efficiency is set to ±75%

            • My bad doh, my BH is set to 75%. For this brew I got 91% including the unfermentables, without it 100%. My previous pilsner was 84% including unfermentables, 94% without.

              Do you typically include unfermentables, like carapils ? Or just go total grainweight?

              • Brew #2 in the ferm fridge. GF busy with it's last deep clean, most stuff packed away.

                Thought on a double brew day? Not as fun as I thought it be...

                  Yip, total grains and calculations are as per beersmith.

                  Sounds like that GF is giving good results

                  • Did a smaller batch the weekend. My first no chill and no sparge brew. Effeciency dropped by 7% as expected. 45 minute mash. 30 minute boil.Was done in 2 hours.
                    Final boil volume 12L. Used my fermentation chamber set to 0C to cool down the beer, was at 21C after 10 hours, pitched and now fermenting at 21C.
                    Everyone must beleive in something, I beleive I'll have another beer

                      I brewed version 3 of my 2.5 % abv Extra Lite Lager early (5am) this morning.
                      Ok so I cracked my Black IPA the weekend. Not bad, the malty character seems to mask the hops a bit, before you can trully get the hop flavour the malt flavour kicks in, do not think I got the balance quite right.
                      However from what I could taste the S. Passion and cascade seem to work well together. I will do a normal IPA in the near future with S. Passion and cascade to confirm.

                          The 1st IPA has been brewed and is bubbling away nicely.. dry-hopping to follow some time next week.

                          EDIT: Can't figure out how to rotate the pic?
