Wazza_wantsbeer Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) As mentioned in my other All Grain thread, I am doing another all grain brew day today. For @Thagomizerand others that might be interested, I thought I would detail the run sheet that I use for todays Brew Day. So this is a Brew in the Bag (BIAB), no sparge and no chill method. I'm also using a step mash this time which I didn't last time but with the grain bill exceeding 25% adjuncts, a step mash is recommended. The recipe for this Hazy IPA is as follows: Golden Promise (Thomas Fawcett) 1.5 kg Pilsner Malt (Gladfield) 1.0 kg Big O (Gladfield) 0.6 kg Wheat Malt (Gladfield) 0.4 kg I've added brewing salts to get a 2:1 ratio for Chloride (Cl-):Sulfate (SO4-2) and kept Calcium under 150 ppm Strike Temp: 72°C, Mash Temp 67°C, Mash Time: 60 minutes, Mash Out Temp: 77°C for 10 minutes Will give myself a good 20 minutes to squeeze as much of that precious wort out of the bag and then let it drip into another pot as I bring the wort to the boil and will add the drippings into the big pot just as it's coming to the boil. Boil Time: 30 Adding Hop bittering edition at 30 minutes, @ 10 minutes add 1/2 teaspoon of yeast nutrient Hop Stand: @ 75°C for 15 minutes After 15 minutes, will pour hot wort into a 10l sanitised cube making sure to use a sanitised funnel and strainer.

From TheBruSho YouTube channel, where he has stated that a 30 minute boil is more than adequate. I've also read this and seen the same references across the interweb. The 60 plus minute boil is from the older ways of brewing, in particular predating the NEIPA, East Coast and Hazy IPA styles of beer. Previously, the boil was all about extracting as much bitterness from the hops as possible and concentrating the wort to the desired Original Gravity. The "boil" also stops Enzyme Activity, increases the colour, lowers the pH and drives off volatile compounds. Recent studies, research and trials have shown that a 30 minute boil effectively achieves stopping the enzyme activity and lowers pH that doesn't increase the colour and add to the bitterness of the wort, both of which are things you don't want in a modern East Coast/NEIPA/Hazy IPA. Hence why many professional breweries don't even add hops to the boil and why the whirlpool/hop stand editions have become popular. Also why a whirlpool/hop stand at lower than 80°C is shown to be more effective as less of the aroma hop oils are lost. Today I increased my hop stand @75°C to 15 minutes to increase the amount of aroma oils from the hops without extracting bitterness. One thing that has annoyed me today after finishing the whole Brew Day, was that I totally missed my post boil Original Gravity (OG). BrewFather predicted a OG of 1.083 but testing a cooled sample of my wort taken from the cube tested at 1.072. Annoying and it means my efficiency was way off but I am putting that down to the milling of the grains. I informed 41 Pints that I'm doing BIAB and that I want the mill to be as fine as possible but compared to my last order of grains from them, this was noticeably coarser. I actually remarked to my wife when I brought the grains home that it looked now where near as fine as the previous order. Oh well, I will pass on my thoughts to them when I order next time and make sure that I get a finer mill. In terms of expected FG and ABV, BrewFather predicts a Final Gravity (FG) of 1.020. With a SG of 1.072 and if I get the 1.020, ABV will be 6.83 which means this will not be a double IPA/IIPA. Oh well, next time 🍺🍺 Edited February 27, 2022 by Wazza_wantsbeer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your own mill is certainly a great investment when the time is right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazza_wantsbeer Posted March 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 Getting my own all grain 3M Hazy IPA into the Droid tonight. Using LalBrew Verdant IPA yeast. Hoping for a final gravity of less than 1.020 which has been predicted by BrewFather. Will Propagate @ 18°C, ferment @ 20°C, a single dry hop when indicated by the Droid. Maybe will Double Dry Hop but depends on delivery of supplies as the Hops I'm using are running low on both Mosaic and Motueka but it is expected on Thursday so I can still dry hop at high Krausen if I want. Still considering this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a shortage of Simcoe this year so I recently bought a kg just for the hell of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazza_wantsbeer Posted March 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) Just kegged this 3M Hazy IPA. As you know, the Droid died on Friday last week, I've been checking the gravity since Saturday when I found it to be around 1.023. So I dry hopped with 50g each of Mosaic, Moutere and Motueka. The gravity was 1.019 yesterday and hit 1.018 today which was a little less than that which was predicted by BrewFather so I thought, get it into a keg today. Edit, just checked on BrewFather and when I adjusted for the less efficient mash and boil, it went from predicting a FG of 1.020 to 1.017. Oh well, definitely close enough but I think if the Droid was still alive, I would have definitely hit the 1.017 mark. Also, a final gravity of 1.019 and an SG of 1.072 gives this a final ABV of 7.09 so calling it 7.1%. Kegging went smoothly, lots and lots of trub found at the bottom and some still soft krausen. Oh well, given the Droid died, I need to get this to Liam and the BrewArt tech team as soon as possible. Can't wait to taste it when it's ready as this was the single best tasting beer I've done straight out of the Droid. Damn it was good and the extra hops used in this compared to the all grain NEIPA I did previously has really paid off based on very early taste.

Aiming for days and not hours as I would usually do 🤣 In all seriousness, I've my best mate from Melbourne visiting on the 29th so will have a first taste just before then. Or maybe Friday... not sure yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazza_wantsbeer Posted March 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Hahaha... it's Friday and yeah okay sue me, I had to have a taste. So the 3M Hazy IPA, with Mosaic, Motueka and Moutere hops to give its name kegged on Tuesday this week. All I can say is wow. Simply my very best beer to date. The Haze, the mouthfeel, the taste... absolutely spot on and its was only kegged on Tuesday, I'm still shaking my head. It's like a Balter Hazy IPA when it was a limited edition, only better, much much better. The tropical and citrus flavours are amazing and surprisingly given how young it is, no green hop burn at all. Won't have another taste until the 29th when my best mate arrives from Melbourne but damn... I am shocked that a beer I made from scratch would taste this good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
