Batch 280, Panama Red

 Still trying to make decent beer here in Baja. Going for a Panama Red, going to ferment at least 10 days this time.

5 gallon batch

12 lb 2-row

12 oz Crystal 60

12 oz White wheat

2 oz Chocolate malt

Mashed at 153F, added 1 tsp phosphoric acid to the mash. Collected 6 gallons in the boil kettle.

1 oz Mt Hood, FWH

1 oz Centennial, 60 min

1 oz Cascade, 30 min

1 oz Cascade, 5 min

1 oz Mt Hoos, 5 min

2 packets of Safale-04.

Pretty easy brew day, hope this one comes out good.

Update 13 Jan 2023: it's okay, it's not quite Panama Red, but it's drinkable. A little diacetyl, but not as much as previous batches.
