Well, the mash tun is now tried and tested with a tough one to handle - a witbier - and there were no stuck mash / sparge problems. Also, the clarity / lack of bits was astounding - a thousand times better than the in-boiler BIAB AG brewing I'd been doing.
As payback for Dave (my brother in law) actually doing the mash tun plumbing for me, he gets a brew. I hoped I'd have the opportunity to astound him with my skill, but no. He drinks Stella Artois - out of choice, I must add. No-one forces him to do it.
So, a lager is the order of the day this weekend:
Lager Malt 4.4 kg
Hersbrucker @ 30 mins 30g
Saaz @ 5 mins 30g
Yeasties S-23
20 litres @ 1050 OG is the target.
I hope he appreciates the fact that he's going to be occupying one of my fridges for a month.
The usual - pictures yadayada. I'll be aiming for a 65C 60 minute mash (agency phone calls notwithstanding).
