Alan Batchelor Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Hello all, Altered the Pineapple crush a bit. E5 x 2, X1 x 2, X2 x 1, H6 x 2. Mango juice and SAFALE S-04 yeast. Dry hopping with Citra and Amarillo at 48 hours. And two H6’s at EOF. Brewing for one day but ready for leakage 🤪 ~Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 Well prepared, the 3 hop choices will work well together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul84 Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Very keen to see how the Mango crush works out , should be a delicious beer. This is on my to be brewed again list 🤣. Still working through the catalogue though. Mango would be a new level of sweetness , and likely a healthier brew , hope the bag will hold it lol. DH is also something I would do for it next time and as Mark said good Hop choices 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Batchelor Posted July 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Interestingly I am 4 days in an no leakage. Both previous brews did. Has me a tad worried to be honest, especially with the mango juice. I see it bubbling in the window so I think it’s ok. Fingers crossed 🤪 Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed 🤪 Alan If it’s bubbling in the window then fermentation is happening. The app should also show a rise in temp and then cooling down again. (I’m about to keg a Ruby Porter, it didn’t overflow as expected but it tried.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Batchelor Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hi all, Just bottled my version of the pineapple crush. You can see the changes I made at the beginning of the post. What I was aiming for is a cloudy NEIPA, switched Mango for Pineapple. Couple of ingredient changes and used my own Yeast. It taste what is was going for and looks spot on. I did not cold crash, I wanted all that cloudy goodness. First pour, second pour and last pour. Very happy and can’t wait to try it. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Now that is looking really good and I bet it’s smells great. You certainly can get a kick out of toying with recipes when they turn out ok and to expectations. The first pour I suspect would contaIn some extra sediment that sits in the tap, the last looks a ripper of a brew. In 2 weeks you must have a try.

Alan Batchelor Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Mark, I did sort of try, I mixed pour two with a small amount of lager just to give it some fizz. Even this was a very nice. I suspect in two weeks it will be really good, 4 weeks outstanding. I will brew again but with out fruit juice. I have a feeling with Citra, galaxy and Amarillo will be juicy enough.

As a dry hop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
