TinRoof IPA - What happens when you mess with a recipe

We started out with the recipe we designed earlier, and decided to bring it down to 21L instead of 25L and at the same time cut back the crystal malt from 0.95kg to 0.5kg and the vienna malt from 0.65kg to 0.5kg. This would give us a lighter malt load and hopefully still be balanced.

                                                                                                                                                                                                             

This is the first time we are using our new wort pump, we were able to set it up to recirculate the wort through the mash

Adding the grain to the mash water, 6kg is easy, I have done this with 55kg and you know you've had a work out then.

We weighed and bagged the hop additions for the day, all 7 of them.

After the boil we ended up with 16L, so somewhere in our measurements we really messed up. We have still got a very nice beer but it's ended up at 101 IBU's instead of the 62 we were planning on and once everything has settled only about 15L of beer. 

I think we will just have to call it a limited release.
