Allrighty, it's 35°C outside, time to brew a big and honking Baltic Porter for Christmas! 😅

Today is #brewday .
Am I sure about this? 😅
So, next Saturday is #Brewday and I'm gonna try to push the output of our brew kit. The kettle has a volume of 30 liters and so far we have used recipes for 30l of total mash water, usually ending up with ~23l of post-boil wort.
But we had good results with keeping the strike water a little lower and using more sparge water, which in the end means we never really maxed out the kettle capacity. Therefore we're gonna try to hit ~28l of wort next time. #homebrewing
And it's #Brewday. We're doing the same "Bavarian IPA" like half a year ago, to test if we can get a consistent result. If we do, we might use the recipe as basis for another attempt at a milkshake IPA.
