Intent: Irish Red ale.
For this batch, I used a Coleman PolyLite 48 as my mash tun. Sterilized everything. Heated strike water to 72°C. Transferred strike water to Coleman, and mashed in. Covered it with a blanket for one hour.
Lautered, and started the boil. Added the demerera and half the Fuggle 15 minutes before flameout, but started the other half as a hop tea. Transferred wort kettles to the cooler.
Once it had cooled, I transferred the wort to the carboy, took a gravity reading, added my hop tea, and pitched the yeast.
