On Labor Day, we brewed up Yuri_Rage's Thunderstruck Pumpkin Ale as a partial mash (6 gal batch size), and an additional 2 gallon AG. Pitched 1.5 packets on S-04 on the pumpkin, the other 0.5 on the small batch. Fermentation started immediately, and has now slowed. I am leaving for 2 weeks on Wednesday.... so, Assuming the FG is stable for 3 days, would you guys rack after 8-9 days in the primary to a secondary, or just let em be? The recipe for the AG is below, if interested. They been in a swamp cooler with temps in the 60s, but I expect the temps to go up to the low/mid 70s while I'm away.
"TR" Ale
3# US 2-row
1.5# malted red wheat
0.5# Crystal 20L
0.4oz cascade @ 60min
0.25oz sorachi ace @ 15min
0.25oz sorachi ace @ 0min
Mashed 150-145 for 1 hour.
Pitched 0.5 packet of Safale S-04 at ~70F.
Planned 2.5 gallon batch, about 2 gallons made it in the primary, with 1.061 OG.
