So brewed my second batch of beer and when I enter it into my calculator with out the maple syrup I come up with OG as 1.056 I guessed with maple I would end up with 1.070 ish. I guessed wrong lol I ended up with 1.098! Here's the recipe.
Ingredients:
5.5 lbs*Light Dry Malt Extract
1.5 lbs Crystal Malt (60 degrees lovibond)
1/2 lbs Black Patent Malt
1/2 lbs Chocolate malt*
64 oz*Grade B*Maple Syrup
2.5 oz Styrian Golding Hop Pellets
hops schedule is 1oz 60 min.
1oz 30min.
.5 oz 15
maple addEd at 5min.
So my questions are... 1. I under pitched accroding to mr mAlty by about a half pack dry safale us-05, it started at about 10hr. So I think it should so ok but should I be worried about anything? Will rack to a secondary , so... 2. How long should I let it sit in secondary? 3. Any tips on what to expect as far as flavors or other possible complications? Thx
