Brewing up a batch of Kölsch-inspired ale, right now!

Well, I got a good lesson in what esters are in my last batch of Kölsch-style ale. Lalbrew's instructions for rehydrating their Nottingham yeast say you can add the yeast to water that's 30-35°C. So, I felt it would be okay to pitch the rehydrated yeast into the wort when it was 35°C.
The next morning, when I lifted the cloth cover of my open fermentor, there was a strong, fruity (but not unpleasant) odor.

Been a while since the last visit to Craftwork in Oamaru 😁 So today was the perfect day for a fresh Good Lord #Tripel by Craftwork... And a Gesundheit #Kölsch by 8Wired.
