While brewing today, I got to thinking, what if every RDWHAH mistake was done on the same batch? So, in the interest of science (and beer), I propose the RDWHAH experiment.
I will be intentionally make as many 'mistakes' brewing as possible, to include:
No sanitization of ANY brewing equipment.
No airlock or yeast the first 24 hours
No boil of the wort (hops will be boiled separately in plain water)
Mash at 165
LONG primary sit
Primary kept in room with no temp control (no heat, no AC)
Start syphon by mouth
Drop a cheese curl in the primary
And, of course, RDWHAH every mistake
I'm looking for other ideas of what i could do wrong for this as well.
Recipe:
10 lbs 2 row
1 oz chinook
salvaged yeast from last batch (nottingham)
