In my mind, 10 Days in wort is Day 11. In case you can't tell, I call brew day, Day 1. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you’re to blame Marty. You must have taught math to my investment banker as he says those six zeros sitting behind the 3 and in front of the decimal point on my statement means nothing. Then he tells me that the few zeros he has placed after his decimal point but in front of the 1 for my % interest calculation each month means everything. So now I know why I get bugger all interest. Good job Marty you have taught the bastard well. Gold star's to you ha ha. And you are a year older than you think you are...... so get brewing mate and drinking mate, there's is not many numbers left. All good banter - love it. Sorry @pilotsh we seemed to have hijacked your diary. Look forward to day 35 on the your calendar (if such a day exists) to see what you report when you open a bottle or two. - AL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Dale Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 How many hours would there be in day Zero? When you start a new job, the first day is called day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or starting a lease, hiring a car, going on a tour, starting a month. I wonder what would happen if he used a Kveik yeast at 40c on a low ABV beer and it finished on day 0. Does that mean he has no beer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what time you start counting! Yes, it might be your first day of work when you start it, but you have only worked one day when you have finished your shift! If I pitched my yeast at 1:58pm Wednesday for example, I could only say that it has been fermenting for one day at 1:57pm on Thursday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilotsh Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Wednesday 15th April: 133 hours (5.54 days) since pitch. Brew Temp: 22.1C. Since yesterday, a high of 22.2C and low of 21.9C observed. SG: Not Tested. Comments: No notable change. However the bigger issue is I wonder who will round 5.54 down to 5 Days, and who will round up to 6 Days?

pilotsh Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Captain's Log, Star Date 6.75 (162 hours since pitch). Also know as Thursday 16th April by humans. Brew Temp: 22.9C. Since yesterday, a high of 23.1C and low of 22.1C observed. SG: Not Tested. Will test tomorrow, then Sunday, then daily. Comments: No notable change in appearance. Two sunny days of 24C have raised apartment temperature which has slowly transferred into the FV over 48 hours, however 7 day forecast shows nothing above 20C for the next seven days, so this will allow FV temperature to drop about 2C again slowly and naturally.

pilotsh Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Friday 17th April: 190 hours (7.91 days) since pitch. Brew Temp: 22.1C, a straight decline from yesterday. SG: 1025. Nose: Light and plain. Light oatmeal and very light honey, but not sweet. Palate: Underwhelming. Watery, with a very slight fizz. Not able to really pick up any notable flavours other that flat warm 'beer'/wheat. Comments: No notable change in appearance. Based on nose and palate I suspect it will need quite a few more days of fermentation. Photo(s): 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotsh Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 Saturday 18th April: 211 hours (8.79 days) since pitch. Brew Temp: 21.6C, a straight decline from yesterday. SG: Not Tested.

pilotsh Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Thinking forward to bottling day, I am thinking about the yeast slurry that will be left over (is that called 'trub'?). I would either make bread, or store it as an emergency/custom yeast for a later brew. If I store it, just place it in the fridge? Freezer? If I freeze it I assume it would last longer? The other option is to split the slurry in half and (try to) make an awesome beer bread loaf, twice. Edited April 18, 2020 by pilotsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
