93rd hour update

Category: ESB 3 — Josh @ 8:38 pm

I just pulled the blow off tube and attached an airlock. The SG sample that I took read 1.012 @ 73.6 F (1.0135 Corrected). It tastes is pretty good. I definately notice cleaner taste with this bitter VS pervious bitters I have brewed. The flavors of the grains sugars definately come through. The flavor seems softer than with the Wyeast 1028 that I used in the Bitter 4. The slight buttery flavor imparted by the turbinado sugar adds a nice warmth without overpowering the brew, like it did with Bitter 3. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
