Brauhaus Fritz Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Enjoying Stouts in the moment, so I whipped up a last Stout for this season. BigW had a sale on, all fresh cans with 2 years shelf live. Coopers Extra Stout can x2 BE3 1kg LDM 500gr Light Muscovado sugar 1kg Double Ristretto coffee Kit yeast x2 OG is 1096, might have exaggerated with my fermentable. What can I expect in FG? Filled the FV to 20l Edited August 20, 2023 by Brauhaus Fritz 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filled the FV to 20l That's a Big stout, could end up with ABV of around %11 in the bottle! Leave a few for next winter, be interesting to see how much it changes with 8 months of age. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back Brewing Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I would have thought a minimum of 22mg of yeast ( 2 x 11g pkts ) another 7g wouldn't hurt Just my opinion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I agree with @Back Brewing. This article says 11.5g of dry yeast is good up to about 1.070 but recommends a second pack (23g total) for anything more than that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A back of the napkin calculation at 80% attenuation (not allowing for unfermentables) would give an FG of around 1.020 if I'm not mistaken. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple B Brewing Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Hey Brauhaus Fritz, If this calculator is anything to go by, you are going to need a heap more yeast in that bad boy https://www.brewersfriend.com/yeast-pitch-rate-and-starter-calculator/#cells_per_gram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filled the FV to 20l God damn haha. Definitely add another 2 x 7g packets of yeast mate, without inputting your recipe into anything, i would think an FG of around 1.030 would be where it will finish. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back Brewing Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Will probably finish at about 9% at 1030 or 10% at 1020 Edited August 20, 2023 by Back Brewing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added another two packets of 7gr Coopers yeast. Let’s see how it will turn out. I thought it would need more yeast, it I was waiting for some advice. Thank you all. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Maybe I should rename this thread to “What is not in your fermenter”, ha ha. When I left for work this morning Theresa’s no activity at all, coming back it was a different story. Luckily I had an overflow tube ready. You could have warned me, ha ha 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think about it but that does remind me. I asked some questions about that a month or so ago. Apparently if you use a lot of dark malts (two cans of stout, tick) or you have a high OG (1.096, tick) then you are likely to have the krausen crawling out of the fermenter. Well, the proof is in the pudding, I guess. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have warned me, ha ha Yeah, that's a pretty big brew with all of those fermentables & yeast, you could have done with a bigger vessel. When I saw the ingredients I thought, wow, there's gunna be trouble, but as long as you can constrain the monster it should be OK. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidM Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Trendy Trousers Amber Ale Made this one last year and it was my favorite Amber so far, time to have another go at it. This time I had most of the ingredients on hand, so it's close to the listed Recipe. Pale Ale can & 1.3k Light Dry Malt 150g each of Roasted Barley and Light Crystal Malt, cold steeped for 24 hours. 300g Maltodextrin 30g Galaxy hops boiled for 15 min. US-05 yeast 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
