Tonight i got the Mexican Cervasa bottled, so will sit that out for 4 weeks to mature before i refrigerate a couple and see how they turn out, awful pale brew, hope it turns out alright. This is meant to be the Corona, or Mexican beer type, but they never turn out the same. I hope i don't end up with any bottle bombs either as temps here are still high.
I also put on 2 new brews at 23ltrs each tonight.
The first was a Coopers Australian Pale Ale with the Mangrove Jacks No 15 hops and sugar mix and provided yeast packet.
The second is a Brigalow Munich Lager with a Mangrove Jacks No 15 hops and sugar mix and the provided yeast packet.
Ill leave them 3 weeks and check gravity to see if its stable and then add finings and push to the 4 week mark before priming and bottling.
The OG on both were really different, the Brigalow ML registered at 1090, whilst the Coopers APA was at 1042.
This is the first time ive checked OG in a brew so will be looking forward to seeing how things turn out and learning how to register alcohol level in the next 8 weeks or so.
If any of you lot have any thoughts or learning for me, let me know, its much appreciated, thanks again.
