Beautiful. Did you use the 05/04 mix or something else for yeast?

Yep the mix. I've been having some odd attenuation problems but this beer finished at 1.1011. Very happy with that.

Looks good Matt!

Thank you sir.

I like that yeast combo a lot, glad it got you a nice attenuation.

so how many batches have you made with the US-05/S-04 combo?

3 or 4

Just got 3# of fresh Galaxy in a couple weeks ago so I think it is time to revisit this one!

 

I think the only change on the grain bill will be to sub GP for the MO.  I may do some hop tweaking.  I want to have more Galaxy in the DH and less in the WP.

All sounds good to me.

Still doing 30 minute boils Drez?

Still doing 30 minute boils Drez?

I am. I did do a 60 minute on a pilsner (Hallertau Blanc on a suggestion you had) Sunday but that was my first "long" boil in 2-3 years. I have lowered my boil from 75% to 50-60% on a 5500 watt element and still end up with clear (when I want them to be) tasty beers. So I will be sticking to what works for now.

Good to know, thanks. Agree, if it ain't broke....

 

Also, let us know how the Blanc pils turns out.
