Finally warm enough to brew with the immersion chiller today!
I brewed an IPA, combining old school IPA and New England silliness:
OG 1.072, 10 gallons
12 lbs. Aventinus Pale Ale Malt
12 lbs. Crisp Maris Otter
0.75 lb. Briess Crystal 120
3 lbs assorted flake grains (spelt, barley, 7 grain)
Mash at 152 for 60 min. Batch sparge to collect 13 gallons of wort.
FWH with 6 oz. of Galalxy.
Add 0.4 oz. of Chinook to the boil.
After 90 min, shut off and add 4 oz. Amarillo to knockout.
Add 6 more oz. of hops at the 180 mark of chilling, 2 oz each of Galaxy, Ekaunot, and Mosaic.
Pitch US-5 3 packets split between two carboys.
