Brew #32: Bye Bye Rye

Filed under: Homebrew Journal by Joe @ 3:10 pm

My first All-grain brew. Here’s the grain bill:

4.25 lbs 2-Row
4.25 lbs American Pale
1.25 lbs Rye
1.25 lbs Vienna
.5 lbs Crystal 15L
.25 lbs Carafa Special II

Hops
.75 oz Columbus? Pellets <— I can’t remember if this was columbus or not :(
.5 oz Columbus Pellets
1 oz Cascade

Mashed the grains in 3 gallons of water at 155º F for 60 minutes. Sparged with 4.5 gallons of water at 180º F for a final boil volume of 7.5 gallons.

Added the .75 oz of bittering hops at once the wort was brought to boil. After 15 minutes of boiling I added the .5 oz flavor hops (Columbus). Added the Cascade at flame out for aroma. I also added 1 tab of Whirfloc for the last 20 minutes (helps with clarity).

O.G. 1.055
F.G. 1. 010
