Title: Ingredients list for Capital Brewers Brewday
Post by: Padraic on January 22, 2013, 08:09:46 PM
Here are my proposed ingredients list and names of people who have already offered to spot the ingredients. If you have any of the below to spare please add your name to the list!

Also please suggest ammendments to the milk stout recipe, the pale ale one will remain the same so that we can demo it and then taste the extract batch from the last meet up!

Extract Pale Ale ingredients list
3000 g Dry Light - Partridge9
400 g Crystal 60 - Partridge9
14 g Magnum (14%) - P9
14 g Perle (8.8%) Padraic
25 g Cascade (7.6%) Padraic
0.5 t Whirlfloc Tablets (Irish moss) Padraic will bring Irish Moss
50 g Cascade (7.6%) - Padraic
1 Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05 / White Labs WLP001 California Ale or similar - Partridge9
25 g Amarillo (9.4%) - Substitute Cascade (Padraic)

All Grain Milk Stout Please suggest changes to this recipe!
4500g MO - Padraic
450g Black Patent
340g Crystal 80
227g Chocolate Malt
450g Lactose
EKG or similar from start of boil to get 29 IBU
Yeast - S04 (P9 can bring WLP001 if that helps)

Should we also lob in some coconut? Or anything else?

I have the coconut here if we want to give that a go!

I might have some of the specialty grains but won't be able to check until tomorrow afternoon!

Not sure if the milk stout is the best idea.
What about brewing dry stout instead?

Lads

To make a coconut stout I think its best to 'dry hop' with toasted coconut after initial fermentation has died down.

I have one for the comp! ;)

I can bring the WLP001. Don't have anything else off the list though. I have plenty of whirlfloc if that's any use too.

I've mashed it in my coconut porters so far, might try your "dry coconut" method next time!

How long did you leave the coconut in the oven/ what temp?

Sorry, meant to reply to this earlier.

coconut toasted at 150 for 30mins or so.

Be careful not to let it burn.

@ partridge9 should Tom bring the yeast and wirlflic or do you have these sorted?

I have the Whirlfloc - My WLP001 Yeast isnt very fresh - so if there is some fresh stuff I'd take it

Padriac - Maybe throw a dry yeast in your pocket - just in case.
