ferment an ale @ 58 This is The constant temp of my basement..
The Recipe: Hemp Porter
1# chocolate malt
3\4# roasted malt
1\2# crystal malt 60L
1oz hemp @ 60min to go
1\2 cup bakers chocolate @15 min to go
4# LME
1# DME
1oz northern brewer 13% aa Boil 60 min
1\2oz hallertau 8.6% aa
1\2oz centennial 7.4% aa @ 20Min to go
1\2oz Centennial Finishing 7.4% aa
Coopers English ale yeast started day in advance..
I read Dave Millers book and he suggest 65-68 for an ale.Will the fermentation finish at this temp? I seeped the grain for 30 min @153 and sparged with 170* water.A friend who is an AG brewer did the hemp in a light lager and it had grassy notes and one hellva body buzz .This is why I'm trying it with a darker beer witch is my preference anyway.It is fermenting very slowly it was brewed yesterday the yeast was pitched @ 1:30 pm EST.
