Having successfully negotiated my first full extract brewday on Sunday, and got it done and cleaned in just over 3 hours, I decided to do an after work brew this evening :thumb:
No Name Porter
3kg Light DME
1kg Light Crystal Malt
500g Dark Crystal Malt
475g Chocolate Malt
50g Black Malt
22g Admiral (16,3%) 60 mins (30.1 IBU)
25g Bramling Cross (5.3%) 10 mins (4.1 IBU)
20g Bramling X at flame out.
Grains steeped at 67*C, then 500g DME added for boil (other 2.5kg dme rehydrated and straight to fermenter). I was only slightly late for the initial boil... there wasn't porter foam everywhere, honest :whistle:
Chilled (with my slightly oversized 4-coil immersion chiller) and S04 pitched
Target OG of 1.058 appears to have been hit :thumb: (slight child carnage in the background)
