Ok the shed been here over a week so though ti should do a brew to see how it went.
had to get a new hose to reach shed for immersion chiller ..
Decided to brew a stout as i havent done one in a while its all been hoppy pale ales of late.
Recipe
planning to fill 2 fermenters
10kg pale malt (Minch)
750gms roasted barley
500 grms chocolate
250grms flaked barley
400grms treacle
60 grams challenger
started off as a 90 min boil lost light and will to continue so boil shortened to 75 mins.
got off to a bad start when doughing in realised that i hadnt installed filter in mashtun …emptied it and intsalled filter as a result lost a few to many degrees of temp…so heated more water and started again.
Meh also forgot to take OG readings so no idea how strong its going to turn out.
