The last malt on the grain bill was 1 lb of "Malt company of Ireland ale base malt". Could not find it on the list above.
Yeast was Edinburgh Ale yeast WLP028 Liquid yeast. Sparge with 4 gallons of water at 178 degrees, using a spaghetti strainer. Pre-boil SG was 1.050. Pre-Ferment SG as 1.071. Cooled wort to 79 degrees before pitching the yeast.
12/14/2014 - Transferred to Secondary Carboy, SG was 1.023.
12/27/14- shook carboy.
12/28/14 - 1/2 bottled and 1/2Keg. 1.5 oz priming sugar. final SG was 1.020 before priming sugar. ABV 6.6
Great taste and getting better in keg with age. Seems to have a kick higher than 6.6%,but who doesn't brag about their own beer. A little darker than I had wanted, but perfect as its not too bitter or hoppy. |
