With an OG of 1.054, which syncs up with QBrew, I think the Belgian turned out just about right…
Brew Notes:
- After a bit of advice from the mailing list I subscribe too, I decided to do a partial mash with the Flaked Wheat and Aromatic Malt. Since I had such a small amount to mash, I used only 1 quart of water, but it seems to have converted nicely, at least by the smell of it. If I were more of a pro, I would have checked with iodine, but I didn’t have any on hand.
- I used 2 Valencia Oranges and 2 Blood Oranges for my Orange peel additions. I just used the cheese grater we had and lightly grated the Oranges to shave off the “good stuff”
- Fresh coriander smells great and my cleaned coffee grinder did the job for pulverizing the seeds.
- This is my first batch to go in the new 6.5 gallon carboy. No more brew bucket for now… I want to see how happy my yeast are.
