I have saved it in my recipe list anyway. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have saved it in my recipe list anyway. G'day Shamus, I was given a sneaky photo of the grain bill some time back and it is the actual amounts. The hop schedule is mine as that is an unknown, just tried to match the IBU of 26. My mash profile was 40 C for 15" then 69 C for 60" then mash out 75 C for 10" but I suspect this is wrong. Maybe too full bodied so next batch on Saturday will be mashed 50 C for 10" then 65 C for 60" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like its flavour, rather than its colour, is a bit unique. " distinctive almond like nut character with earthy and slight herbal notes that round out to a sweet bread like flavour similar to a lighter style wheat malt". With an EBC of 3-5, it is not going to give your beer a weird purple colour. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will wait in anticipation of your critique of each brew. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuts down on the cleaning, and buying yeast, and keeps production going... great work mate! I have consistently been doing 'dirty batch FV backfill' Brews for some time now with good outcomes... but never been piping off the brew once complete in the ferment vessel - that takes things to another level! Great stuff Sorry IP missed your post here. It was a matter of bad timing @Itinerant Peasant , just did not have the time to keg this 50 L batch off and clean out the big Kegmenter before we hit the road for a couple of months. I had plenty of kegs but they were all part filled with a few litres of this and that so no hope of drinking them and cleaning them out. Therefore only option was to leave the Summer Pils in the big keg to cover trub and drink it once we were back home when I was ready to do another dirty batch to drop in on top. I was extremely worried that leaving it sit for a few months would give me problems but as of tonight have been pouring a few pints off the trub yet again, this is of the new batch and all is very good and I think it it gets better the more yeast cake there is. Might even push this to four dirty batches in future but I need to change lagers so this yeast will be dumped come this WE and will move back over to DL yeast for the next few brews.
