Australian Sparkling Ale
« on: May 02, 2015, 11:14:33 am »
After an insanely stressful work week, I've got some time to brew tonight.  This will be my second stab at the style.

6 gallon batch

10.75 lbs. Pilsner malt (I can't remember at the moment if I bought Castle or Best)
.5 lbs. Carahell

1.5 oz. Pride of Ringwood - 60 min
.5 oz. Pride of Ringwood - 10 min
.5 oz. Pride of Ringwood - 5 min

Wyeast 1275 - Thames Valley Ale (appropriately sized starter)

OG. 1.054

I'm hoping it will finish on the dry side.  I'll probably mash at 148 and ferment around 70.
