Rye PA's are my new favorite beer!


How do you like the Mangrove yeast Jamie, I've read great reviews on it, so wanna pick some up here in the future.

[jamie_savoie]

I really like M44 so far, reminds me of wlp090.  I need more testing but this might become my new US05.  M20 was just ok, I still prefer wy3068.  M03 was pretty good; I liked it better than 1728 in a scottish.  M84 is still fermenting and will only know in a couple of months.  Haven't used M27 yet but it's the equivalent of wy3711 (or also danstar belle saison)

[Al-Loves-Wine]

Sounds good, the M44 was the one I wanted to try. I'm still on my first beer with the 3068, that yeast definitely needs some bottle condition time. First bottle I had at 10 days, it was super peppery/clove tasting with the occasional hint of banana in there. Now that it has had more time the clove has started to settle a bit and coming into its own.

One thing to note with mangrove is they're slow to start I found

An old German rule of thumb was that the pitching temperature + the fermentation temperature should = 30C  (ex: pitch @ 12, ferment @ 18)

How did this turn out Jamie? I want to brew it this weekend.

[jamie_savoie]

It was great and the keg went quickly.  But if f I were to brew it again, the adjustment I would do is to mash higher or add 4-5% carapils and maybe more finishing hops or add dry hops

[Waterlogged]

Thanks Jamie, I will factor in those changes.  Say 0.75 oz each of cascade and chinook for a week to dryhop, 158 degree sacch rest.

[jamie_savoie]

Hop wise that's what I would do too.  My version finished around 1.005-6 and would've like something in the 1.010-12 range.  If it were me I think I would replace a pound of base for a pound of carapils.  I never mashed a PA above 155 so I can't really tell you if 158 would do the trick

I will check beersmith and see what the recommend for a medium body mash.

Have a ton of Rye I bought a while ago and then slowed down using it so this is the perfect recipe to try! Going to cut out the acid malt and replace the cara 40 with cara rye. Going to keep US-05 but thinking I might try vermont ale.

[feldmann]

Kegged this last week. Simple but so tasty, I think I might make this a regular rotation. Ordered funktown pale ale blend to try with it next time.

So did you dry hop any with this?

So did you dry hop any with this?

I did not. I wanted a balance with the rye. Everytime I brew with rye its always way in the background so I wanted a more rye forward beer to truly see what its like closer to the front.
