Batch 10
Back to log.
Intent: Irish Red ale.
Grain Bill
- 2700g Maris Otter barley malt.
- 450g Munich malt.
- 450g Crystal malt (60L).
Non-Grain Ingredients
- 56g Fuggle hops.
- 11.5g SafAle S-04.
- 150g demerera sugar.
Process
Sterilized everything. Heated strike water; split grain into 1/3 and 2/3 lots. Mash-in at 70°C.
Mashed at 67-68°C for 75 minutes. The smaller kettle got too hot, up to 73°C, but I brought it back down. Press-lautered, and started the boil.
Added the demerera at temp, added 28g of hops at the hot break, added the second 28g of hops 45 minutes later. Boiled for 60 minutes total, then transferred for cooling.
Loaded it into the carboy, and took a reading. Then pitched my yeast.
