DECEMBEER 2022 - FML (IPA with dried whole cone hops and Thiol Libre yeast)

Post by GCR » Fri Nov 25, 2022 9:51 pm

I made a tiktok of this brew:

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMFxJ1yTJ/

I always get this weird kind of bubble gum taste when I use my fresh (dried) hops... not sure where that is coming from, cause it just smells divine and like regular hops when brewing. FML stands for fresh mystery lupulin, as I do not know what kind of hops they are.

I did mash hopping on this batch for the first time, but not sure I see any significant impact (aside from maybe helping with a faster sparge).

6696 g pale malt
455 g C40
450 g cookie malt
400 g oat flakes
235 g Carapils

22.5 l mash water
12 l sparge water

60 min mash @ 152 degrees
10 min mash out @ 158 degrees

60 min boil
20 min hop stand

97 g dried whole cone hops for mash hop
.5 oz cascade pellet hops first wort hop
.5 oz cascade @ 60 min
1 oz cascade @ 15 min
1 oz cascade for 20 min hop stand
112 g FML for hop stand (crushed with immersion blender)

Made a 1 litre starter with a fresh liquid packet of Escarpment Labs Thiol Libre yeast.

Bottled with 115 g dextrose for priming.

OG: 1.061
FG: 1.013

6.3% ABV

this developed nicely! a bit on the cloudy side, only started to detect hoppiness towards then when it warmed-up.it should be the other way around, eh? Very Belgiany-IPA'ish. also, if you can edit your Subject Line, you should add "DAY 19". ppl might not be as diligent as me to look for the Recipe each night. ;)

The bubblegum is definitely there. I really like it! A beautiful base for your hops . Perfect carb, nice and smooth

Wasn't quite bubblegum for me, but def had some banana/Belgian notes. Really fruity, not to hoppy, beautifully amber colour. Really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing

Thanks for the feedback. Can't believe I forgot the date! If there is a way to change it I couldn't figure it out!

Thanks marko. It wasn't exactly what I was aiming for, but I'm happy it is still drinkable!

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks! As noted, the belgian-y result was not planned, but I can roll with it! (Though if I use my fresh hops again I might just stick with a belgian strain).
