Renegade Update

This was the first brew since faced with a bacterial infection.

As I mentioned in the last post, the brewday was drama free and 10 gallons of wort were collected at a starting gravity of 1.042



As usual, the wort was split into two separate five gallon fermenters. I've racked one of these off the yeast, prior to bottling. I'm pleased to say there is no sign of infection and the beer tastes good!

The other fermenter has had some auxillary finings added and has been set to chill. That one is destined for the cask with some isinglass in a couple of days time. So far so good...
