Bottling Day – Molasses Porter and English Mild
Posted by bradinator in Beer, Experiments, Hobbies, Home Brewing on May 29, 2010
Just a quick update on my last two home brews. I racked both of them today which required me to use every single bottle I own. I could not begin to tell you how many bottles I got, but its probably around 70 pints between the both of them.
Too be honest I kind of rush both of them and did not take an accurate measurement for the priming sugar. It should have worked out to about 1/2 cup of dextrose each, but I kind of eye-balled it.
Molasses Porter –
- Born May 2, Secondary May 16th, Bottled May 29
- Original Gravity: 1.056
- Final Gravity: 1.020 (S-33 SafAle yeast sucks)
- ABV: 4.7%, Calories/Pint: 250kcal
- Cost per pint: ~$1.00-$1.25
English Mild –
- Born May 8, Secondary May 16th, Bottled May 29
- Original Gravity: 1.034
- Final Gravity: 1.009 (S-04 SafAle yeast rocks)
- ABV: 3.2%, Calories/Pint: 150kcal
- Cost per pint: ~$0.70-$0.80
Finally I will give both 7-14 days to bottle condition. I have so much beer downstairs right now I do not even know what to do with it.
And here is the real crazy thing… I created an experimental cider today too. I used 2 gallons of cranberry cocktail, 1 can of frozen pineapple juice concentrate and topped it with water. Worst of all I just pitched this on top of the yeast cake from my molasses porter! What was I thinking!? Original gravity is 1.038 and god have mercy on my soul for this monstrosity I am creating.
