Ok, got my new Klarstien after waffling on every factor ever.
Works great except my efficiency was crap. After 9lbs of base malt ended up with a 1.031 measured on refractometer. I was drunk when I did this as my bud came for a brew so I’m sure I made a few mistakes…. But for my next brew I’m planning on not drinking until I’m done, and brewing a SMaSH to kind of dial things in.
So I’ll be pitching this onto a lollemond London yeast. Looking for what a good combo is for malt and hops to go with this yeast? And that is easy to work with so I can find out where I went wrong and really dial in my brewing abilities.
