The summer has been very busy but I managed to squeeze two brew sessions in so far, a Munich Helles and an ESB. The Helles started at 1.057 and finished at 1.012 for a ABV of 5.9%. It is currently cooling to lager temp where it will rest for the next month and a half or so. The ESB started at 1.057 also and finished at 1.015 for a ABV of 5.5%. Since my fermentation chamber is being used for lagering right now I made a swamp cooler for the carboys in the basement. This seemed to keep the beer in the high 60’s. I may bottle 5 gallons of the ESB and keg the other 5 gallons. I think the malty ESB will age well in bottles. Next up is an IPA because I just ran out!
