First AG

[luckyeddie]

Get that mash water on, pronto...

Fancy calling it WATER!!!! :shock: :grin:

I've never quite worked out why it's called 'liquor' - it doesn't make you fall over.

Well it nearly 5 pm and my first ag is cooling in a water bath but as I've been drinking I did take some pics but won't get them posted till tomorrow but I think everything went well and very happy with results

 

[StubbsPKS]

Excellent! good to hear it and I look forward to the pics man!

According to "Chambers" - anything liquid.................... :twisted:

I know a joke where the set-up line is "Ain't that some fancy liquor?" - but we'll not take that any further.

Ok finally got it down to 20C and yeast pitched
SG is 1.043

Would that be, how does a woman hold her liquor - by the ears - ooops sorry mods.

Excuse me but can we get back to my first AG

 

[dennisking]

Sorry, few to many beers.

Sorry, few to many beers.

A contradiction in terms if ever I heard one.

 

[Growler]

I found that doing an AG brew results in a bad head the next day

May be due to the large amount of beer consumed whilst doing it :drunk:

It's not going mad but it is bubbling away slowly so fingers crossed

Nice one. When you start, you can't stop. I did my first AG two-weeks ago tomorrow (I keep thinking its Sunday!). There's 5 minutes left of the mash for #2.

I found that once you've done the first, you can then tweak your variables like dead-space, boil-off amounts so you can dial-in your equipment.

I hope your's is the first of many AGs :)

An oxymoron perchance?

Isn't that a brewer who doesn't ensure a nice atmosphere of CO2 in his FV?
