Transfered my Roasted Brown to secondary Monday, had a S.G. of 1.024, seems a little high to me (but I guess I did start higher than I though too). Was bubbling about every 60 seconds. After I transfered it the bubbling sped up for about 15 min then slowed down to about 75 seconds. Got a little air in trying to get as much as I could out of the primary. Now it has almost stopped, but there is definately pressure in there. Anyway, I tasted a little and I think it will be pretty good, a bit darker than I intended, I think it's going to come out very dry with a pretty heavy body and not a lot of malty sweetness, good amount of hop bitterness and flavor, roasted aroma. Actually I'm sure I'LL like it, I just hope others will as well. My Just Stout is almost ready, bubbles still are a little off, but maybe it's just going to end up with poor head retention. It has a funny flavor that stronger with some bottles than others, really can't put my finger on it but the wife had her first taste today and said she could taste the off flavor too. |
