Today's Brew - something British inspired [General]
2009 Jun 7
For hops I went with 99g of East Kent Golding (EKG) (5.2% Alpha Acids) @60m (boiled 60 minutes)
Knockout (power off) is coming up shortly, at which point I'll add 30g more of the same EKG. Let it sit 5-10 minutes, then chill it.
EDIT : OG (original specific gravity - i.e. before fermentation) 1.050

zymurgist
4.6 kg pale ale
2.3 kg Weyermann Dark Munich
400g Fawcett Malted Oats
400g unknown base malt :-)
500g Caramunich III
1.7 kg Weyermann Rauch/Smoked
For a total of 10kg
Mashed in a bit low and even after adding 3 qts of hot water only got up to 151.5 so did a quick decoction of 3 litres to get it up to just shy of 153F. Mashed 90 minutes, and am just running off the first batch (sparge) now.
