We brewed the Hemli Red today. This was a partial mash brew and with it came alot of changes from the standard extract brew. This was definitely a learning curve and was met with some challenges. It was a good way to learn the process in order to move over to an all-grain brew. However, it didn't go without some mistakes and issues. So the ABV was a bit lower. But it'll be better next time, as we improve our process and get a bit better with it.
This was done following a yeast starter at a 2L volume on Monday. This I'm sure will help the process be a bit better over the dry yeast or no starter.
While not ideal, it is definitely good to move up a step and do it to hopefully a better quality. Unfortunately, this process, probably partially due to inexperince at partial mash, took longer than expected. But still fun to do.
