4/5: Completely missed OG: Thoughts are that a fly sparge messed me up (diluted runoff as opposed to thick, sugary wort I would have had had I batch sparged). Will definitely try Batch Sparging next time. Boiled. Massive Hot Break. Never seen anything like it. Sludgy grossness. Maybe was some of the invert sugarI made? Definitely shaping up to be an experimental beer. Not worthy of the PVW name, but will rename to v1 to show that this is a beer in the discovery stage.4/15: Transferred to glass. Added 1 oz of goldings pellet hop tea.Grav at txfr: 1.019Taste at txfr: Far from balanced. Tartness from yeast underscores tart sweetness from invert sugar. Still there's lots of sediment that will drop out over the next month. As soon as the keg's kicked and my beer's mailed out, I'm going to put in cold and see if I can't force those solids to drop out of suspension. Time and clarification should change the flavor significantly and hopefully mellow out some of the heat/sharp notes. |
