Classic Brewing Co Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Bottling Stout Day at Classic Brewing Co I have beer in a keg but still bottling but more kegs are on the way, I prefer to age stout in bottles anyway, ended up with 32 Cooper's Longnecks of the lovely black stuff. Whether or not it gets to age doesn't matter, it's all boxed anyway. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSands Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 1 hour ago, Tone boy said: Do you boil the whole 20 litres Sandman? No. I make a concentrated wort - not unlike some of those FWK you can buy which are 15 litres of concentrated - or at least partially concentrated worts. In the case of these partials I do it's probably around 8 litres that I end up boiling. Toward the end of the boil I mix in the extract. It's then made up to the final 20 litres in the fermenter with the addition of cold water. When I'm doing a stove top AG I'm probably boiling more around 12 litres of concentrated wort, which similarly is made up to the final volume in the FV with the approriate amount of cold water. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only saw this message now Toner mate. The local hops are great. Not as punchy as the American ones but not far off. And really cheap, about half the price. I have 3 different varieties I cN get at my local HBS. One in particular has a very pungent passionfruit aroma great for dry hopping. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well ATM I only have one keg ( in use ) & as it was ready on Mon 26th it has bottled. It could have been worded better & I should have said "rather than tie up a keg to age the stout, I would rather bottle it" Further down the track I will be kegging stout, I have even ordered a stout tap. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I just bottled #2 AG Brew COOPERS SPARKLING ALE recipe per favour by @Itinerant Peasant When I unscrewed the lid off the FV I got a really decent whiff of hops & I was impressed with it's colour. I am looking forward to trying this one, Finished bang on 1.010. The brewing temp ( ambient ) was pretty constant in the brew room, just perfect for Ales. So thanks again IP for your help with this one. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Frothman Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 3 brews worth of grain from the legends at Beerbelly here in Radelaide. Hazy IPA Red Rye IPA Heffeweizen (which I’ll add apricots from our tree to) This lot should keep me busy for a bit. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
