Greetings all...
Should I use a blowoff on this IIPA that I'm starting either tonight or tomorrow? Reason I'm asking is because I'm using Pacman yeast. Will do primary fermentation in a 6.5 gallon bucket then rack to a 5 gal BB in a week or two.
Recipe is as follows :
2 pounds extra light DME
6.6 pounds pale LME
2 pounds Crystal Malt 20L
1 pound Munich Malt 10L
2 ounces Summit hops (60 mins)
1.5 ounces Simcoe hops (45 mins)
1.5 ounces Centennial hops (30 mins)
1.5 ounces Cascade hops (2 mins)
1 ounce Cascade (dry hopped 14 days)
1 ounce Centennial (dry hopped 10 days)
Pacman yeast
Estimated O.G. 1.068
Estimated F.G. 1.017
Estimated ABV 6.6 %
IBU 95.0
SRM 12.3
Thoughts? We made Uncle Charlie's Goat Scrotum Ale two weeks ago and when we racked it last week we found out the krausen went all the way to the bottom of the lid.
That's why I'm asking.
We hope to make our first AG batch, an Irish Red, on this cake in a couple of weeks.
