THE MASH
Temperature °C: 67
Length (mins): 60

Out time (mins): 10

THE BOIL
Boil time (mins): 60 mins

Additions and timing:

2g yeast nutrient with 10 minutes of the boil left

Secondary additions and timing:

Yeast nutrient added 10 mins from end of boil (2g)

No hops in boil

At end of boil cool wort to 80c and then add 50g Mosaic and 25g Citra hops and stand for 20 mins. I leave the pump recirculating during this stage

After 24 hours fermentation add 125g Mosaic and 50g Citra

Once fermentation has finished (7 days), cool to 14c and add 125g Mosaic and 25g Citra, leave for 2 days before then crashing cooling for another 2 and package

Yeast: I originally used WHC Bjorn Kveik but recipe generator won’t let me add it so have substituted OMEGA version here which is same strain
Fermentation temperature/steps: 7 days at 35c, 3 days at 14c, cold crash for 2 days at 4c

Comments:

Due to the amount of hops there are quite a lot of losses, mash water is 21.05 L and sparge water is 13.15 L.

I use a campden tablet in the water, half in the mash water and the other in the sparge water.

My water has low buffering (30ppm) so I don’t treat with AMS or anything like that.

My water has low calcium (again 30ppm) so I treat with Calcium Carbonate at 0.3g/l, so for the mash water it’s 6.3g and the sparge it’s 3.9g.

Best kegged, haven’t bottled it but think it would oxidise badly due to the amount of hop additions.
