Today I started a little experiment, I brewed up an IPA recipe I have been toying around with for a while. Here it is if anyone is curious:
Side note: I tried out Deathbrewers Brew-in-a-bag for my first attempt at partial mash. I have 8 AG batches done, but am looking for ways to save a little time since I can't seem to find as many contiguous 6 hour blocks as I would like. I got crap for efficiency, not sure the stovetop brew in a bag got me any points or not. The time savings was negligible, and for anyone doing PM because of the fear of AG, its only 1% harder, go get yourself a cooler already .
Ingredients Amount Item Type % or IBU
6.00 lb Light Dry Extract (8.0 SRM) Dry Extract 54.5 %
2.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 18.2 %
1.00 lb Victory Malt (25.0 SRM) Grain 9.1 %
0.50 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 4.5 %
0.50 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 4.5 %
1.00 oz Chinook [11.00%] (60 min) Hops 31.5 IBU
1.00 oz Simcoe [11.90%] (30 min) Hops 26.2 IBU
1.00 oz Chinook [11.00%] (20 min) Hops 19.1 IBU
1.00 oz Amarillo Gold [8.90%] (15 min) Hops 12.6 IBU
1.00 oz Amarillo Gold [8.90%] (5 min) Hops 5.1 IBU
0.50 oz Amarillo Gold [8.90%] (0 min) Hops -
1.00 lb Dememera Sugar (2.0 SRM) Sugar 9.1 %
1 Pkgs Nottingham Yeast (Lallemand #-) Yeast-Ale
Measured Original Gravity: 1.069 SG
Estimated Final Gravity: 1.016 SG
Bitterness: 94.4 IBU
In any case, back to the experiment part...
I divided up the wort into roughly equal parts in 3 PETE Absopure jugs, and pitched Nottingham, S-05, and S-33. The S-33 one is full of Hop particles and trub, but wtf, its an experiment right?
I will periodically post back gravity readings, clarity, pics maybe? and in a few months time, taste notes.
