What did you brew today?

[Begbie]

Used my new toy tonight for the first time - 27L Fermzilla Gen 3.2 Tri-Conical. To keep it simple I just used the MYO Premium Lager kit from The Range, but used different yeast - Hoppin Pils from CML. For the dry hop in a weeks time, I'm replacing the kit hops with Motueka, hoping to get a nice citrusy hopped lager for the next short spurt of summer weather, when/if it visits central Scotland again!

I did a session hazy yesterday. Single hop cashmere, because I’ve decided I do too many brews with multiple hops that there are some hops where I don’t actually think I know what they taste like

What’s the iron for? Is it a novel way of crushing your grist?

I brew in the utility room, and the iron lives in there!

Same as me, but the tumble drier is always the star of my show
I've never used Cashmere before but, having just looked it up, it looks quite interesting. I'm going to add it to my "to try" list!

Roggenbier.

Never even drank one before!

Equal parts rye and light Munich, bit of torrefied wheat and a smidge of black to get colour to style spec, which I regret because it was looking a lovely red.

1st time using rye, very peppery smell coming from the mash.

A little magnum for about 14ibu and mj m20.

Efficiency took a hit, but pitching at 1.050.

Last brew until September.

I’ve had it in a few commercial hazies but never used it myself, which was one of the reasons I went for it. I also believe it’s less “in your face” than some of the NEIPA hops so should be better with the lower ABV of this brew.
