  • I've been meaning to make a Kölsch using Lemondrop, it should fit the style fairly well. I'm contemplating using either of these;
    Lemondrop only (25.8 IBU)
    OR
    Perle/Magnum bittering (17.8 IBU) and Lemondrop aroma (6.2 IBU)
    83.3% Pils
    8.3% Munich light
    6.3% Cara Clair
    2.1% Wheat
    bu:gu 0.5 on 4.8abv
    K97 or Oslo

    Thoughts?

      I also get a higher gravity with those amount of grains @ 23L ?
      Yeah.. also noticed that. Oh well, I added a bit more hops and played with the grain bill, so should come out ok

        You should try a Two Hearted clone, but yeah I think I used Centennial way too much before and got bored of it

        • Today's Brew is a Hibiscus Raspberry Saison, I'm planning on using a 50/50 yeast blend of T58 and Wb-60 to get the flavour of the T58 and the dryness of the WB-60.

          About 250g of Hibiscus in the boil for a 20l batch which will give plenty of tartness and will rack into 1kg of frozen raspberries in secondary.

            Today's brew for me was a lot less interesting than this, just a regular Simcoe/Mosaic hoppy (for me) APA. Pitching US-05 tomorrow once it's chilled.

            Planning another SMaSH brew for tomorrow

            • Finally kegging my Cali common, its been crashing for a week, wasn't lus to keg. Also, that Vienna lager wort cube needs to be crashed.

              Saw some on the cheap sab hops, so that so' passion neipa is getting closer to fruition. R200 or so for a kg, that's 3 brews from a kilo

                        • Well, you sure will have some esters. Id drop temp and let her ride it out for a day or so, perhaps check SG

                              Yip, I switched off the blanket and the temp is slowly dropping ... Im not fussed about the SG ... I will let it sit for a while even tho its Kveik ... No rush

                              Did some research .... seems like plenty guys pitch at 39º and then ferment at 43ºC ... so im only 3ºC over
