Entry: 10 More For the Masses Wednesday, November 05, 2003



Yesterday, (yeah for vacation days) Joey and Joe and I brewed our first 10 gallon single batch. We decided to brew up some more of the IPA recipe that went over so well last year. The Malts are Marris Otter Pale and Victory and Munich. The hops are (just because I like to stay local) Cascade for bittering and Willamete for aroma. The yeast is trusty Wyeast # 1056 American Ale yeast.

We used a single temperature infusion mash in our 12 gallon kettle. 26 pounds of grain and a 12 gallon kettle almost full of water was a bit heavy to move around, but we managed. The color turned out great and light golden. We had to ferment in two buckets though since we made so much.

Tune in in three weeks and we'll see if we got it right.
