    Strong Bitter Common Room ESB

    Last night my s-04 was raging and had 1" of Krausen on top. Tonight it barely has any action and 1-1.5" of cake at the bottom. Should I be concerned? I haven't used s-04 before. Ferm temp is 68F +/- .5 in a refrigerator controlled by an sts-1000.

    Cool. My mash averaged 156-158 so I'm looking forward to a slightly heavier body as well.

    Is the mash out water addition just to raise the temp or does the extra volume of water have additional purposes? I am going to do this BIAB and i was just goint to turn on my burner for a few minutes to get the heat unless the extra water adds something to the process. Cheers! DP

    The sugar is only to give the yeast something to snack on as they reanimate so its literally about a teaspoon. You could also use some dme if you were really worried about it. I've had good success from both.
