Used 1.7kg tin, water to 11.5L and
Saflager W34/70. No other ingredients.
Dry pitched yeast whilst wort was
26degC. Brewed at ambient temp - 20deg.
OG 1043, FG 1010. Bottled after two
weeks in primary, clearest I have seen
at bottling.
Final result excellent. Crystal clear,
with good head & body, great taste &
crisp finish. Will do this again soon.
Put down 01/08/06.
1.7kg can, water to 11.5L in MS
fermenter, and 15g BrewCellar European
Lager Yeast dry pitched @ 24degC. No
other ingredients.
Brew temp was 18degC. OG 1043. FG 1009.
Bottle primed 12/08/06.
Good body & head with flavour showing
good balance between malt & hops. 4.5
star effort, but have rated as 4.
All gone, so will have to do again.
Put down 27/08/06, using 1.7kg can to
11.5L in MS fermenter, with Safale US-56
dry pitched in wort @ 26degC.
Brewed 18 - 20degC OG 1042, FG 1009.
Bottled from primary 09/09/06. All gone
by mid November. Great result which I
gave 8/10 before discovering this review
site.
Will definitely do again - soon!
Put down 24/08/06 in MS fermenter to
volume of 11.5L. Steeped Morgans Fuggles
hop bag for 10 min, & added the lot to
wort, plus Safale S-04 dry pitched @
24degC. Brewed 18-20degC. OG 1040, FG
1014, = low alc! Bland & boring & rated
@ 13/20. Not on my to do again list.
Did this using 1.5kg of the tin plus 2
sachets of Coopers yeast pitched @
26degC to a volume of 11.5L in a MSB
fermenter. Nothing else - brewed @
around 20deg for 7 days & bottled. OG
1038 FG 1010.
Not a session beer, but one to sip with
a nice cigar. Have just put down
another, but used 1.6kg of tin contents
& anticipating an even better ale.
