Obviously beer, but I was clearing out my leftover (and possibly stale) grains to make room for new ingredients and decided I didn't want to just toss them so I made a frankenstein's monster beer instead. I took a short n' shoddy approach with a 30 min boil and no sparge:
ANVIL Foundry 6.5
Batch Volume: 1.75 gal
Boil Time: 30 min
Pre-Boil Gravity: 1.029
Original Gravity: 1.041
IBU (Tinseth): 21
Color: 5.6 SRM
Mash
Strike Temp — 155.8 °F
Temperature — 152.6 °F — 45 min
Malts (1 lb 15.5 oz)
1 lb (40.5%) — Briess Brewers Malt 2-Row — Grain — 1.9 °L
4.5 oz (11.4%) — Dingemans Munich — Grain — 4.6 °L
3 oz (7.7%) — Dingemans Aromatic Malt — Grain — 14.6 °L
3 oz (7.6%) — Dingemans Biscuit — Grain — 17.2 °L
2 oz (5.1%) — Briess Oats, Flaked — Grain — 1.6 °L
2 oz (5.1%) — Wheat Flaked — Grain — 1.7 °L
1 oz (2.5%) — Cargill (Gambrinus) Honey Malt — Grain — 19 °L
Other (8 oz)
8 oz (20.2%) — Candi Sugar, Clear — Sugar — 0.9 °L — Boil
Hops (0.91 oz)
0.37 oz (10 IBU) — Fuggle 2.9% — Boil — 30 min
0.14 oz (3 IBU) — Fuggle 2.9% — Boil — 15 min
0.4 oz (8 IBU) — Willamette 5.5% — Boil — 5 min
Yeast
0.25 pkg — Fermentis S-04 SafAle English Ale
0.25 pkg — Fermentis T-58 SafBrew Specialty Ale
After a 45 min mash I was at 1.028 SG so I figured I would mashout and proceed to the boil. After the 30 minute boil I chilled to 75° F in about 10 minutes, and pumped to my 3 gallon fermonster (I collected ~1.89 gallons of wort instead of my projected 1.75 gallons). My measured FG was 1.039 which I'm happy about, I've been trying to dial in my mash efficiency with the Foundry and I hit around 81%. I had about a half packet each of S-04 and T-58 so i co-pitched a quarter packet of each just for shits and giggles. It's in my insulation jacket with a few bottles of ice and I will keep it at 64° F until FG is stable. I'm curious/apprehensive about how this will turn out!
