I’d love to see you brew an IPA sour! Hudson Valley does it best, but I’ve never seen a brew day for one. I would be interested to see how you would do it!
I've struggled with any black beers I've made, I've never found a grain (or maybe it's me) that doesn't taste like a burnt coffee. Think getting a coffee flavoured coffee from Gloria Jeans vs a non chain coffee shop that's used to not covering the flavour of their coffee.
Hmmmm what types of dark grains are you using? Something like midnight wheat like what we used gives much less astringency than roasted barley, and if you want the colour without much of the coffee like flavour I’d say add it at the very end of the mash step
I can do a full breakdown when I have some time later, but essentially I assumed 95% of the sugar from the skittles dissolved, and sugar is 100% fermentable, so that let me calculate how much sugar in grams was added to the beer, so then it’s just a division to see how much that weight of sugar would increase the original gravity by, then we just do a normal abv calc, og-fg multiplied by 131.25
You guys are literally the only beer channel I have subscribed to or that is actually worth subscribing to IMO.
Cheers mate! Really appreciate the support 👌🍺
Love the themed beers! House black all the way 🐉

Cheers mate, that’s the beauty of homebrew!

Not a bad idea mate! Could definitely do something weird with it too, like a milkshake sour ipa hahaha

Thanks guys,
How did you calculate the alcohol the skittles added?
