First BIG beer
So I brewed an all grain Wee Heavy. It came in at 1.104. Well honestly it isn't ALL grain. I thought my OG was going to be off, so I added in 1 pound of light DME, so I ended up over of where I wanted to be. This is a 3 gallon batch, and it goes a little something like this.
8# Crisp Pale Male 1.5# Marris Otter .5# Vienna 5oz Cara 20L 5oz Cara 80L 3oz Cara 120L 2oz Roasted Barley And of course the 1lb DME 1oz EKG 60Min .25oz Fuggle 60Min Safbrew S33 Yeast I wanted to use all crisp, but they only had that amount left so I topped off the rest of what I needed with the Marris Otter. I also took about 3/4 of a gallon and got a hell of a boil going on a seperate burner to reduce it down about half and get some carmelization going. I hope that will add a nice flavor. I have my chest freezer set to 57 degrees. I was wondering from anyone elses experience about how long this will take to ferment out? I am going to leave it on the yeast for a month or so, and I know it will be done by then, I am just kind of wondering what to expect. |
