I guess I should have mentioned the fact that a great guy at the CSIRO tested my rainwater for me and it is basicly as close to RO water as you could hope for (less than .2 ppm of anything important to brewing!).
I did not realise how high the gravity was until you pointed it out. I have changed the recipe and will add:
0.20 kg Rice Hulls (0.0 SRM) Adjunct 4.22 %
3.00 kg Pale Malt, Galaxy (Barrett Burston) (1.5 SRM) Grain 63.29 %
1.00 kg Barley, Flaked (1.7 SRM) Grain 21.10 %
0.50 kg Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM) Grain 10.55 %
0.04 kg Acid Malt (3.0 SRM) Grain 0.84 %
45.00 gm Goldings, East Kent [5.00 %] (90 min) (First Wort Hop) Hops 30.7 IBU
1.00 gm Calcium Chloride (Mash 60.0 min) Misc
4.00 gm Epsom Salt (MgSO4) (Mash 5.0 min) Misc
6.00 gm Bicarb (Mash 5.0 min) Misc
8.00 gm Chalk (Mash 5.0 min) Misc
1 Pkgs Irish Ale (White Labs #WLP004) Yeast-Ale
Also you think a single infusion at 63C is best for this style (the draught guiness I am familiar with has quite alot of body and good mouthfeel)? What about rests due to the high level of unmalted barley? Would decoction not achieve the rests and temperatures more acurately and easily? Also how many IBUs do you recommend from that single addition?
Cheers,
Kev
