Brewing Notes |
|
Grains steeped at 150F for an hour. Extracts and brown sugar boiled
for 60 minutes. Yeast nutrient and irish moss added with 10 minutes remaining
in boil. All hops were in pellet form. Honey and apple cider were
pasteurized at 140F for 30 minutes in a separate pot. Apple cider/honey added
to wort in the primary. In the end, this beer came out sweet, way too sweet.
Fermentation was incomplete, as I think the yeast poisoned themselves before
all the sugars were converted.
