Perfect foundation grist for all ales, but yields great results in lager-making, too. Low protein and glucan levels for easy lautering and high extract efficiency. Provides excellent body, pale color, and complex maltiness to finished brew. Recommended Quantities: Up to 100% of total grain bill. Suitability (beer styles): All ales (including Stout, Porter, Belgian beers)

  • Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    The most famous ale yeast strain found across America, now available as a ready-to-pitch dry yeast. Produces well balanced beers with low diacetyl and a very clean, crisp end palate. Sedimentation: low to medium. Final gravity: medium. Pitching instructions: Re-hydrate the dry yeast into yeast cream in a stirred vessel prior to pitching. Sprinkle the dry yeast in 10 times its own weight of sterile water or wort at 27C± 3C(80F ±6F). Once the expected weight of dry yeast is reconstituted into cream by this method (this takes about 15 to 30 minutes), maintain a gentle stirring for another 30 minutes. Then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Alternatively, pitch dry yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20C(68F). Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes and then mix the wort e.g. using aeration.

Instructions?

2010-12-29 1:04pm

I find nobody on here ever puts in instructions... newbies cannot become advanced, guessing at how to brew. How long is mash, is it stepped, rests, etc.. No temps no nothing...

there are a lot of things you cannot put in when you make the recipe here. i, like most people, do not remember to do it under the comment section so dont give the poor person a hard time. the best thing i find about homebrewing in general is that you can improvise as much as you like :)

have to agree..

no matter how much or how little instructions are given on the recipes here, there is a TON of information on the forums, internet, etc, etc. I think most will say that a single infusion mash is the simplest process, unless you feel you have to go to greater lengths (i.e., step mash, decoction, and so on)...We all probably had to learn a few lessons as our experience level progressed, but that's the fun of homebrewing!

Thanks for all the attention on my recipe. The mash was a two step. I always do a 2 step mash, but I never do a decoction due to the time and mess. 30 min at 125F and 60 minutes at 150F. Sparged with 170F water to 6 gallons. Pretty simple really. This brew turned out pretty good and quite dry.
