Kegged 10g of Imperial Stout. Using it as a bulk secondary until the end of the month. 5g will remain sterile. The remaining 5g will get spirals, vanilla, and a touch of coffee. Bourbon will be added at bottling too. Only 10% so missed my target a little. It is probably the best I’ve ever made...
My rig is a 🦕 I really love to look at these systems. I would love to be an inside brewer. I’ll tell my 3864 this weekend it’s riding in a Maybach on the way to the chamber! Love it!
I only secondary high OG brews that I want off the yeast. Brewed my RIS yesterday that will ferment for 2 weeks. I’ll then put it in a secondary for a month with oak soaked bourbon. Only beer I use any secondary for. I’m sure additions of fruit and such would be fitting as well.
I’m brewing a huge RIS on Sunday. It’s a 12g batch with 3# of roasted barley, and several other dark malts. I always mash it all together. I tried the late additions and didn’t get the character I wanted. Shooting for a PH of 5.6 and rolling with it.
