Today I'm brewing using the 750g of wild hops picked my my local landlord while walking his dog.
20L
OG 1.055
4kg maris otter.
375G wild hops @ 60 min.
185G wild hops @ 15 min.
185G wild hops @ 0 min.
irish moss @ 15 min.
white labs 001 yeast.
I've no idea what these hops are or how strong they are. But they spell pretty pungent. The additions are pretty arbitrary, I've just split 50%, 25% and 25%.
I've kept the grain bill as simple as possible and used the cleanest yeast I could find in order to let the hops come through.
Strike water at 72ðc, then hit my dough in temp of 66ðc bang on. dropped to 65ðc over the 60 min mash.
Mashed out at 78ðc and now boiling away.
Should be interesting.....
