TOOTH & CO , SYDNEY : PALE ALE 1928

 How Do All ,

Over the last few recipies , I`ve been illustrating the problems of adapting old beer recipies for the talented amateur brewer ; And the concurrent issues of  Worts Collection & Gravities when considering the equipment required , Ie : Copper Size Requirements v Required Brewlength at Collection Gravity and the following Wort Yield to F V @ Original Gravity .

Here`s a recipe from Tooth`s brewery in Sydney to illustrate the point further ; For a Collection from the Mash Tun of Wort at 1.025.25 on a BEER LITRES RACKED DOWN volume of : 25.500 B/Litres ,     The initial collection volume in the copper would have to be between 33.0 and 33.500 Wort Litres @ 1.025.25 to achieve the volume required Viz, 25.500 Beer Litres in container @ 1.049.5 .

 The recipe below is , For an initial Wort Volume of 29.000 Wort Litres from Mash Tun @ 1.025.25            ( * Collect 29.290 Wort Litres @ 1.025.0 then CONDENSE to 1.025.25 on 29.0 W/Litres ,+ SUGARS ) and should yield  23.040 Wort Litres To the F V @ 1.049.5 , With the DROP to a 2 Nd F V leaving approximately 22.600 Wort Litres in the 2 Nd F V ; and an estimated 22.20 - 22.30 Beer Litres to DRAUGHT container at 1.011 .
