After X10 kits it's time to join the big boys.
Landlord style recipe kit
1 gallon
Pale malt 850g
Black malt 6g
Styrian and Golding hops.
An hour with the grains in a bag. Between 69 & 72°
At boil start
Golding and Styrian 6 G each
Then after 45 mins Styrian 4g added
Stove top vessel cooled in sink / ice.
Into bucket with tap and yeast added.
Found tap had a slight leak after 2 days so into a Demi John with airlock. Left behind trub.
SG at start 1032
Yeast: Crossmyloof ale yeast.
Temp around 20° or less. Never below 16°
After 4 days SG dropped to 1016.
Quite surprised at that drop speed.
No bubbles rising or airlock movement.
I'll be leaving it in the Demi John while away for New Year.
Any thoughts folks?
