Redid AG #1 on Wednesday due to one of my clients not having any work for me so decided to go brewing :D

First time I feel I actually have control of my brewing equipment now. Worked out my efficiency to be around 58% so hopefully I can start nailing what I target going forward.

Anyway this one is coming out around 6% I reckon but its gone a bit nuts :P Bubbling over :)

I put 25 liters in there and about a liter of it has foamed up and is bubbling out :D I wonder if it got worse over night :P

Which recipe did you use please?

7.2kg Pale Malt Maris Otter
0.45kg Crystal Malt

18.51g Magnum - 60 mins
11.57g Perle - 30 mins
69.43g Cascade - 10 mins

74.89g - Cascade - Aroma Steep

2 packets of Safale US-05

25 liter batch
55% efficiency

5.6% abv
15.6 EBC
36 IBUs


90 min mash / 60 min boil

Hope this helps

I ended up with a OG of 1.056 so over shot a little. My efficiency needs adjusting to 58%.
 
Just took a sample and its 1.012... So 5.8%.. Last time I did this it went down to 1.008 so will give it some more time...

Tastes great though already :D
