Hi all. long brewday yesterday, not without event. went for a step mashed Munich Dunkel with 90min boil.
using my Grainfather G40 but having issues with the bottom plate lifting and allowing grain and hops in and blocking the pump so I had cool with my immersion chiller and to manually transfer to the fermenter.
Got it done and pitched 2xlallemand‘s diamond yeast at 11deg. fingers crossed it goes well.
what was the last brew you did?
I did a smoked beer on Friday and kegged a stout and a barley wine today
I’ve tried a Dunkle before and it went horribly wrong, didn’t help that I over carbed it.
Last brew was actually this morning, but was a bit of a chest as it was a wine kit. Last actual brew was a Gamma Ray Clone, turned out pretty good but want to age it for a month or so to clam some of the hop notes. Next is a coffee stout, a recipe from another lad at a homebrew club in York. Hoping to have it turned out for the Xmas brew swap!!!
