I add to that 4% of Carafa Special 2 and 2% of Caraaroma. They will hopefully give me some nice chocolatyness. The final five percent will be table sugar. I took that trick from my Belgian beers and the &#34;Modern Lager Brewing book&#34; and it should keep this 8%er drinkable.<br/> <img src="https://skatspelunke.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/827/021/829/228/958/original/809b50b97e4a640a.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-06-28T09:31:05Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdz7mh680hpvn9d2x2vgj8fvv80lpppwl68mpgfydlhytneh5l4sszyqv9sp8grs02a5flyxs62k0k0gry2xrph7pd4ve2kqhlrtcpyjv86qu630n In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0q7jda4y4wrr0nddyhpku0yew5x9taeh7apfp9p67j2ytmmcjacgev48pq'>nevent1q…48pq</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I fell in love with this style in Poland and brewed a small batch a couple of years ago. It was terrible. Cloyingly sweet and just yuck.<br/><br/>Last year I had another one in the Icelandish winter and I wanted to have one of these smooth, warming, chocolaty winter warmers for the family christmas dinner.<br/><br/>I learned a thing or two since my first attempt, so I&#39;m hoping that this batch is actually drinkable... 2026-06-28T09:27:49Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0q7jda4y4wrr0nddyhpku0yew5x9taeh7apfp9p67j2ytmmcjacgzyqv9sp8grs02a5flyxs62k0k0gry2xrph7pd4ve2kqhlrtcpyjv86z6sw70 Allrighty, it&#39;s 35°C outside, time to brew a big and honking Baltic Porter for Christmas! 😅 <br/><br/>A 🧵 <br/><br/>#Brewday #BrewersOfMastodon<br/> <img src="https://skatspelunke.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/826/999/384/277/851/original/d56c38cd8c274e25.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-06-28T09:24:05Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsy7ygjsl4y585nzj5pf2j9pdhhkccs5udgwflg9hxgpym2pgkntdqzyqv9sp8grs02a5flyxs62k0k0gry2xrph7pd4ve2kqhlrtcpyjv862azm3d I admit it: I do not have the first clue how plants work. So I was pretty amazed how easy it is to create hop scions. My father-in-law just cut a bunch of vines off at the right spot, we put them in bottles with water, placed them in the abandoned henhouse for just enough sunlight and now we wait for them to get new roots. Super easy.<br/><br/>Also yay for more Cascade- and Hüll-Melon-hopped pale beers in the future 🥳 🍻 <br/><br/>#homebrewing #gardening #brewersOfMastodon<br/> <img src="https://skatspelunke.eu/system/media_attachments/files/116/504/318/773/395/894/original/222d2e55b80c3d3a.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-05-02T09:44:26Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqstv306xk8n8avnxmr0l3edsk4sztw9h2e0saf9f5h46qzrdm0sstszyqv9sp8grs02a5flyxs62k0k0gry2xrph7pd4ve2kqhlrtcpyjv86lmhzhd We checked on the hops today.
