Just finished first attempt at using grains, did a partial mash BIAB adding spray malt for boil.
Original Gravity (OG): 1.048 (°P): 11.9
Final Gravity (FG): 1.012 (°P): 3.1
Alcohol (ABV): 4.72 %
Colour (SRM): 6.3 (EBC): 12.4
Bitterness (IBU): 18.5 (Average)
47.62% Dry Malt Extract - Light
47.62% Maris Otter Malt
4.76% Carahell
0.8 g/L Cascade (9.2% Alpha) @ 60 Minutes (Boil)
0.8 g/L Cascade (9.2% Alpha) @ 15 Minutes (Aroma)
0.8 g/L Citra (14.4% Alpha) @ 15 Minutes (Aroma)
0.8 g/L Cascade (9.2% Alpha) @ 0 Minutes (Aroma)
1.5 g/L Citra (14.4% Alpha) @ 0 Days (Dry Hop)
Single step Infusion at 66°C for 60 Minutes. Boil for 60 Minutes
Fermented at 20°C with Safale US-05
Mashed in 5 litres - bit of messing around to get/keep temperature, sparged with another 2, added spray malt for boil, ended up with 5.5 litres in FV and made up to batch volume of 13.5.
Will dry hop when transferring to 2nd FV, probably 10 days or so.
OG was 1.042 so missed target by some way, guess I'll end up with something around 4% which is fine by me - sort of meant to be a Pale Ale, we'll see!
Any opinions, comments etc gratefully received. Going for a more fully AG BIAB method next.
