Notes |
||
| Used 2/3 Reverse Osmosis water (5 gallon) and 1/3 Madison for a total of 28 l which brings the bicarbonates back from 364.0 to 120. Forgot sugar and spices. I thought I had the step temp at 70 C but my turkey bash meter is probably off by +4 C. Aimed for 19 but got only 17.5 l in fermentor (before adding starter). pH dropped from 5.7 to 5.5, 10 and 20 minutes into mashing. It's temparture corrected. The chilled wort pH was still a high 5.6. pH 4.0 calibration solution measured 4.2 so values might be a bit too hi? Hops were green when frozen back in September (3 months ago). I expect they went back in acids and I used more because the green ones must have been wetter. 850 ml starter from Wyeast 1762 (Belgian Abbey II) of the Potbelly Dodo Nov. '06. Was 2 weeks after it's hi krausen (late). Bubble every 20 seconds after 12 hours. Cooler with manifold and spigot weighs 3.5 kg. With the 5.6 kg grains there wer 15.6 l in the mash tun filled up to the rim (~3 l water per grain kg dillution) First taste is plenty bitter. Color looks too dark but nicely redish/copper. Moved fermentor to basement at hi spot where it's 65.5 F (18.6 C), down from 68 F iin kitchen. |
