Dusty Zombies iv
Fourth version of dusty zombies, the only change from v3 is adding Krush hops to the Citra, 150g each.
Brew was straightforward, whirpooled 20m at 75C.
Total volume 23L in the fermenter at 18C, OG 1.071,
Day 3 fermentation starting to ease off at around 1.020. The trub jar was purged and opened to allow stuff to drop through and settle while it finishes. Temperature raised to 18.5C, then to 19C in the evening.
Day 4 16th, increased temp 19.5C then to 20C in the evening. Still at 1.018.
Day 5 17th, increased temp to 20.5C in the AM, 1.017 so 1pt movement over night. Likely due to settling down after the trub jar being opening and stirring things up, a good sign, hopefully clean up goes well.
Dry hop added day 6 since it’d finished and rested for 4 days. I took a 750ml sample to Flanders transfer day on day 8 Sunday, tasting clean.
Day 10 started cooling gradually to 15C and crash cooled to 4C.
Day 11 transferred 19L clear into keg and gassed up.
