After 3 years of brewing AG, I thought it was time for my first Stout. Brewed it today.

Kept it simple. 90 minute single infusion mash at 66ºC, 90 minute boil. Achieved 91.3% mash efficiency, in my normal range.

3.5 kg Pale Malt
1.0 kg Flaked Barley
0.5 kg Roast Barley
0.1 kg Rice Hulls (wish I'd used more, the drain and sparge was very slow).
48 gr Target 9.4% at 60 minutes to 43.6 IBU
1 tablet Whirlfloc
1 jar slurry WY1968 harvested yesterday after bottling an IPA.

24.2 litres into the fermenter at OG 1.051.

You have to love winter brewing. My immersion chiller dropped it to 19ºC in 15 minutes.
