Did a 10 gallon batch of a basic amber ale yesterday (14lbs two row, 3 lbs Crystal 80). 5 gallons will just be a straight amber, the rest will get 3-4 sliced jalapeños after a week. Husband has been begging me to brew it for him for a while. And I finally figured out my issue with sh*try mediciney off flavors; pitching too hot. These guys were chilled to 68 before pitching, both are now in the garage sitting at 64 and going great guns. The plain one (mine, I don't do spicy anything) is a bit of an experiment; I didn't have enough Notty to do both, so this one got slurry from my last Scotch ale. It's chugging along faster than the Notty batch and smells fantastic. Can't wait for these two!
