Have to do a quick brew on sunday as im selling my placky brewery including my current mashtun 
So that I can ensure 3 full cornies Gail Porter is on the cards due to lack of crystal or caramalt...... I also really need to get some black malt in stock so a call to BB is in order some time over the next few weeks to get the stocks up.
Amount Item Type % or IBU
5.20 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter (5.9 EBC) Grain 91.23 %
0.50 kg Chocolate Malt (886.5 EBC) Grain 8.77 %
34.00 gm Northdown [7.50 %] (90 min) Hops 25.8 IBU
10.00 gm Goldings, East Kent [4.30 %] (15 min) Hops 2.0 IBU
10.00 gm Goldings, East Kent [4.30 %] (0 min) (Aroma Hop-Steep) Hops -
1.00 items Whirlfloc Tablet (Boil 15.0 min) Misc
1 Pkgs SafAle English Ale (DCL Yeast #S-04) Yeast-Ale
I hit the mash temp spot on 66c going for a weak ish mash of 3 - 1 ratio and a longer mash time of 2 hours as I have to nipp out for a few things from the shop. Sparge water is measured out 35litres and it is currently at 90c will be letting this cool down before the sparge. So far no problems at all I must be getting used to this new brewery, The end result should let me know how used to it I'm getting.
Pics will talk from now on
Grain Bill
Mash in
Recirce first runnings nice colour and smell
Running off and sparging.
Hops in early while running off and heat is on.
Nice rolling boil
Yeast starter I took some of the boiling wort and let it cool then pitched the yeast into it.
Chiller whorflic and 15 min hops in , almost end of the boil.
Cooling time.
Saving some of the cooling water for cleaning up shame to waste the stuff.
aroma hops in
Into the FV. only put 21 litres as im trying to avoid a mess.
And the demi.
Trub.
Money shot the gravity 1050 pretty much what I was after.
.
Had a good day I measured out the water using one of my FVs so I knew how much was in the boiler for sparging. Had a fellow brewer call found from Manchester to pick up my old placky brewery and the mashtun hence the brew today after yesterdys brew day gave some info and a taster of my only drinkable brew at the moment also sent him off with a bottle of the brew I kegged yesterday, SWMBO was alright with the impromptu brew day bit it's going to cost me something though not sure what yet.
