First attempt at AG

[Laner]

I’ve taken the plunge on an AG brew for the first time..

Trying for a Cervesa type, mashed at 65 for 60 minutes and now boiling away at 101.6c for 60 minutes before cooling cool goes in.

Will be in the pressure fermenter later with M54 yeast ( all they had )

On the slippery slope now next it will be cornys and fridges

It took 12 hours for the fermentation to start and 24 hours after that I set the spunding valve @ 10psi (steady 20c temp ). 72 hours after the ferment started the krausen started to drop, left it at 20c until today and took an FG reading.

It’s a gassy one



OG 1.036
FG 1.006

Needs some time to clear before kegging it



Wife just said it taste better than that Efes we had in the bistro early in the week, so that’ll do me.

M54 is an excellent yeast.

M54 is an excellent yeast.

I agree, used it for the first time recently in a steam pilsener and was really impressed.
