Dagnabbit! Good point, seemed a good idea at the time. Oh well it’s done now, I’ll leave her in there for a couple of weeks then transfer to keg as planned. Mango milkshake IPA next

After a 4 day diacetyl rest, ive just racked her into a secondary and dropped the temp to 3c, should I be going cooler than that? I’m planning on leaving her at that for 2 week, long enough? Then I’ll be moving her to a keg, sticking some CO2 on her and enjoying myself. Gravity is currently a...

She’s down to 1015 now so we’re nearly there, upped the temp to 16c and will keep it there for 3 or so days before racking into my keg and leaving at 3c for a couple of weeks

Perfect, that’s the new plan then. Cheers buddy!

Great stuff, thanks for the input. I’ll keep an eye on things over the next couple of days, and get the temp up when I start seeing things slow down. 3 days at the higher temp work well? If I rack it into the keg and drop to 3c got 2-3 weeks will that work, or am I best racking to a secondary...

That’s the hope! Planning on 14 days at 12.1c, then increase to around 16c for 3 days, then secondary and drop to 4c. That sound reasonable? Just checked and the yeast is doing it’s thing

Couple of random pics from the brew day, plus a bonus bbq! Thanks a lot for the comments guys, will report back with updates! Have a great weekend all

Had the brew day today, just opted to throw the Hallertau at 60 mins and let her roll. OG came to 1.049, hoping to get down to 1.010. In fermenter now at 12c.

Cheers for the responses guy. Apologies for the delay, I had a five post limit which has kindly been lifted! I had a route through the freezer, this is what I’ve got to hand (plus the freshly bought 50g Hallertau): Target @ 12.1% AA East Kent @ 4.95% AA Motueka @ 7.4% AA Goldings @ 5% AA...

What a great read that was! Thanks for sharing it. The recipe for the Pils does look similar to the one I posted, u fortunately for me it won’t be the one I brew! The Hallertau hopes I have have AA at 2.1%, I’m about to head to the freezer to see what the AAs are in the Target. Any help after...

Ah ok makes sense! I’ll have a google for a calculator and come back! Thanks for the help so far, an amazing community!

Makes sense! So if I stick around the IBUs you’ve suggested, what hop additions would you recommend, based on what I have to hand?

Cheers! How much Target would you recommend at the start? All 50g of Hallertau in at 10 mins?

Hi fellow brewers! Long time lurker, first time poster. I’ve been brewing on and off for a few years now, making some terrific beers over the years. Due to one reason or another I haven’t brewed for about 18 months or so, and it’s time to put that right. Cleared out the beer shed yesterday...
