Ok well Brew day was a success, but i had a few things that didn't go as planned.
1. I am used to using Munich 10l.
Apparently they were all sold out of Munich 10l and 20l but there was one bin off by itself that had MUNICH written in marker on a piece of paper, no lovibond, no country of origin or maltster. It looked. pretty light to me, I tasted it, it was good so I grabbed what I needed.
This time I also decide to add some honey malt 20l.
By the time the mash was done
I had what was suppost be a 6 srm, Pale Ale look more like 14 srm. I'd say its going to be somewhere around the color of Dales Pale Ale. I wonder how it got so dark?
2. Before having an all in one Robot brewery I used to put the boil kettle in a deep sink full of ice and chill the wort.
This time i had the pleasure of using an immersion chiller. What a hassle and waste of water. I had tubing running every wich way and I was springing leaks everywhere.
There were many benefits to having this all in one brewery.
Over time I'll just have to work out the bugs.
