Brewer's Notes
I am on tank water, so added 5g Gypsum + 5g Calcium Carbonate to the mash (CalCarbonate not in the RecipeDB!)
Mashed @ 68C. First use of my new HERMS and a bloody nice beer!
Ended up fermenting with S-189 so I suppose it's a hybrid Rauch/Porter.......... Fermented out in 4 days @ 9C when thrown on a fresh yeast cake!!! Grain to Brain in 7 days. Filtered, and a perfect dark amber blackness..... Will brew again!
