Got this one planned for this week some time. Probably the weekend.
25litre
4.5k pale
500g crystal 40l
100g chocolate
500gflaked barley
500g carapils (cos I ordered too much a while back)
30g northern brewer 60min and 0min
Going to use the crossmyloof cali common yeast. After getting in my head that it's more or less an ale yeast that just likes it a few degrees cooler, I'm now beginning to worry I've been a bit blasè.
I plan to get it chilled to 15, pitch the Yeast and keep it below 20 (as best possible in a cool cupboard) for 4 weeks. Is it as easy as that or does it take more of the effort required for a propa lager? Proper temp control and malarkey as such.
Depending on the temperature February I'll crash cool it anyway. That's sticking it outside on the concrete for a couple of days.
