Maggie Kolsch - Monday, October 9, 2023
I finally found some Kolsch yeast. Brewing this the rest of this year using Mr. Robobrew. Guelph only had one left so I had to grab it. Can buy some noble hops anytime after this brew. Low hop bitterness and aroma are the key to making up for my previous mess of a Kolsch. A very simple Kolsch recipe fermented at 62F. Will try to brew this and cpbf in my pet bottles which I have never used. After that will brew my stouts and bitters. I have 96 PET bottles and I want to fill them all. I can store bottles in the fridge with less space than kegs and that means a fridge that will not be on. Supposed to brew this soon but of course Urban Winery had problems getting it to me so this will be brewed after PEI. Make a 1.75 L starter. Pitch 1.5 L after evaporation on the stove.. After it is done, save 500 ml in a jar for an over build. Stir well before removing 500 ml. That means getting all the trub and yeast off the bottom of the flask. Use 170 grams of DME. That's it and brew on... Ingred...
