- Brew 012 - I Love Ginger IPA My wife wanted a ginger beer, so to keep her happy ;), I had a new excuse to brew a beer. between brew 011 and 012 I also boght the GrainFather Conical and the GrainFather and the glycol chiller. so this was a good time to do the brew. First time for me to add anything else in the brew than hop’s and grain, as ginger and honey.
- Brew 011 - Pony IPA Originaly its called the Dead Pony Club, but as my daughter loves pony’s,… Its now Pony IPA, original recipe from BrewDog, And this recipe contain the Maris Otter malts. will partially keg it in the 4L iKegger keg. now with priming suggar.
- Brew 010 - 5AM Another beer I like from BrewDog, less hops than the Punk IPA, bit lower on the ABV, but I like the taste of it. Also this recipe contains the Maris Otter malts. The new on this brew will be the bottling as I’m trying to use a “keg” growler from iKegger, will do ±3,5L in the growler without priming sugar and will force carbonation. The rest will go with sugar in bottles again.
- Brew 009 - PUNK IPA It’s getting “boring”, but again the Punk IPA. The new thing on this brew is that I’m using my own hops. In spring I purchased Cascade and Chinook. Put this in the garden and span a rope so the hops could grow. Harvested the flowers and dryed them in the sun and wind.
- Brew 008 - PUNK IPA Yes again the Punk IPA. The IBU’s are just addictive. Plus I like the Maris Otter malts. Same recipe and back to the Wyeast Labs 1056 Yeast.
- Brew 007 - Cocoa Psycho I love most of the BrewDog beers, and it’s very cool they have all recipes online at BrewDog recipes. As I was in Edinburgh and they opened a pub, I tried a few new beers, and decided to go for the Cocoa Psycho. And that came as a challenge as the grain bill is bigger than fits in my 20L Speidel Braumeister. so I split the grain bill and double mashed. The result is awesome i really like how it ended up and for sure i will brew it again.
- Brew 006 - PUNK IPA First brew of 2018, and yes again the Punk IPA I brew in November. Same recipe except the Yeast, the 1056 was not available at the supplier. Used Empire Ale M15 from Mangrove Jack’s. It’s currently fermenting, did some measurements when I started the dryhop, all numbers looks good, and taste is ok, till now.
- Brew 005 - PUNK IPA I love the BrewDog beers, somehow I stumbled on the recipes on the BrewDog website. I started with one of my favourites, the PUNK IPA. The recipes are not that detailed on the mashing and colours, but i did my best to match the grains with some common sense. The same on the mash, used a BIAB Full Body scheme. IBU ended up a bit higher than the original, but boy you can taste the hops. :) Link to the BrewDog DIY.
- Brew 004 - Munich Dunkel We had our summer holiday in Germany, in the Eifel. Germans are know for their beers, so I tried to drink as much different beers as i could, but i got stuck at a Dunkel from Flensburger Brauerei Emil Peter Lager. I’ve started looking for a good recipe and came up with this one, its does not come close but tasts good :)
- First IPA - Brew 003 My First IPA and third brew. I liked, and not only me, the first IPA I made, that I needed to make a second batch. It’s the same recipe as Brew 001. I also “renamed” the recipe to First IPA
- Weizen - Brew 002 I was looking for a beer that can ferment on the same temp. as my basement is, ±18/19C. Liked to do a Pilsner, but did not want to invest in a cooling system during fermentation, yet… So I found a Weizen I adjusted the recipe for my Speidel Braumeister 20L PLUS.
- First IPA - Brew 001 My first IPA and first brew. The base recipe comes from the Dutch book Verander water H2O in bier written by Adrie Otte and adjusted for my Speidels Braumeister 20L PLUS.
