I'm the guy that comments on his own post.. LOL
I'll boil to the Protein Break and then say another 5 min (just for fun.)
Still interested in comments... Even if they are all just, "What a colossal waste of time!" :)
Trying something new.
I've got a Red Ale that is nearly done in fermentation.
I call it Red inBed V2.
Too hoppy (38 IBU) based on Red in Bed V1
So...
I'm going to add this second batch to the fermenter today.
1gallon water total (it'll boil off some, yes)
Grain bill
1 lb 2 row
2 oz smoked...
Wow a whole shot!!!! ... That's 28g per 1oz
Anybody wanna do the math?
Drop a shot of rum in a brown ale and it is ______________________?
A Dusty Gentleman?
A Dirty Ho? Ha!!! I like it.
Anybody else?
Probably best not to do this...
We have lab type equipment.. I forget most do not have this type of setup.
Must be a closed clean system to do this cleanly.
Never mind...
Blow it off and throw it out.
you'll only blow off about a beer or two.
Sorry
1g is 1 gram.
My scale is fine enough so that this works for me.. Just scale it up to the accuracy of your scale
30grams is roughly a shot glass
add 1 gram of rum is roughly 5 drops
The math is:
(abv)A*(amount)A + (abv)B*(amount)B = (abv)mixture*(amount)mixture
So an example might be a...
After we had a blow up in the Fermentation laboratory (AKA Bathroom) we have used a blow off and aux containment vessel on everything. And with proper cleanliness just pour it back in when it is done. nearly zero loss. Good engineers minimize loss ;)
I like the way you think :tank:
Yup... I did a quick Kitchen Lab test and added 30g of HB Brown and then made 3 samples adding in 1g , 2g and 4g of spiced Oakheart Rum...
1g makes a 6% abv beer... very subtle
2g makes a 8% abv beer... about right
4g makes a 10.5% abv beer... maybe too much for...
We have been brewing for almost 2 years now and we tend to take a collection of recipes in a style and compare them to one another as a starting point... and then tweak it to be our own... Same with most cooking recipes too.. Its just the way I roll ;)
