1 oz Magnum hops
8 oz flaked maize
8 oz hb ( damn it i actually forgot what this is all i have is the initials will update)
7 lbs pale malt syrup
1 lbs dark syrup
steeped the three grains for 30 mins at 150 to 170 ( had problems controlling heat)
soaked liquid malt in hot sink water for 30mins.
Added both malts slowly to keep from scorching at 2:10pm. brought back to a boil for 1 hr
added both hops varieties with a eye for experimentation
.5 magnum at boil
.5 magnum and 1 oz Chinook for finish
3:40 stopped boil cooled in approximatly 1 hr to 82degrees
poured from wort kettle to bottling bucket to aerate sans any modern aeration technique
siphoned in to clean 7 gallon carboy and pitched at approx 79 degrees
very hot fermentation temps during the 8 days it sat in primary
racked off to secondary fermenter on June 24. Tasting notes are very deep and bitter
it tastes more like an esb then what we originally planned for.bottle hopefully on the 28th of June
