Having brewed the Tattoo Croo Broo beer and left it to ferment for the first few weeks of the show, we now return to Stewart Brewing in Edinburgh to bottle it and pack it into boxes to take back to the job.
Because it's a small batch we are using the manual bottling system where our cask of beer is in a chilled storage unit with a tap for filling the bottles. One step we didn't show here was the bottle washing, where the bottles are placed in a rack and rinsed internally with jets of water.
The recipe for this beer is:-
100 litres water.
17kg pale malt extract.
3kg dark crystal malt.
1kg carafa
700g chocolate malt.
Additions:-
Bitter hops 70g Pheonix.
Flavour and aroma hops 175g Phoenix.
Dry hop 200g Phoenix.
Nottingham ale yeast.

    The method of bottling suggests this is a bottle-conditioned brew. It won't really be ready for at least three weeks after bottling.
