Vlog #2: Batch #2 feat. mystery chilies

So, here's my second vlog. It all goes pretty crazy at one point, but bear with it (oh ha ha!), it's well worth the laughs.

So, the Batch #2 recipe is...

5.4kg Golden Promise
.61kg Crystal

60min mash @ 67C

20g Pacifica - first wort hopping
40g Pacific Jade - 60 min
30g Pacifica - 15 min
35g Pacifica - 5min
35g Pacifica - 4min
34g Pacifica - dry hop
66g Cascade - dry hop

Yeast = US05

OG = 1.052
FG = 1.010

All in all, pretty happy with my second brew. Should have thrown some Cascade into the boil to give some more interesting flavours, but that's something to learn from. Also should have fermented out a little bit more. I've learned to keep things going for at least three weeks now, so thing should be better from here on out.

I'm now a big fan of first wort hopping for pale ales. Just gives something different.

So, have any of you done some first wort? What were your results? Anything you would suggest?
