Tom's Bawdy Barleywine
English Barleywine • Partial Mash • 5.5 gal
Mash in at about 153 F. Hold about 75 minutes for full conversion. Boil AT LEAST 90 MINUTES to get that malty, chewy mouthfeel. Ferment pretty high at around 70 F. I have temperature control available but I just fermented at room temp inside. HUGE Blow-off. Even if you put this in a six or seven gallon carboy...ATTACH A BLOW-OFF TUBE! We are talking quarts of blow-off. I pitched WLP099 High Gravity yeast into the secondary and the gravity dropped below 1.020. Wow! Over 14%. This is a big, beautiful beer and I will let you know what happens at competition.
