Stout Racked


Racked the #4 stout to secondary today. Gravity has dropped, but due to volume control issues it looks like it's only going to come in at about 3.5% ABV. Color is good. Taste so far I would say is OK. Not as chocolatey as I had hoped and a little too roasty, also maybe some off flavors from so much chocolate malt.

Other beers update: Probably going to bottle the #1 wheat wine this week. The lambic and mead are still visibly fermenting in the secondary.

Next up: IPA single-hop series - Planning on starting with the Citra. Made a starter with the yeast for the IPAs so I can split it up for the 5 batches. Hopefully get that one done Wednesday night.
