Notes: This is a single infusion mash. Mix the crushed grains with 5 gallons of 165F strike water to stabilize the mash at 153F. Hold for 45 minutes, vorlauf for 15 minutes and begin sparge. Run off into kettle to achieve volume and pre-boil gravity of 1.049 SG. Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops and nutrients according to schedule. Turn of heat, give the wort a stir for about 1 minute to create a whirlpool and let it spin and settle out for 15 minutes before beginning to chill. Aerate & pitch at 65F and let warm to 68F. Ferment for 1 week or until fermentation has died down. Rack to a secondary vessel and cool to 60F. Condition for 4 days, add dry hops, condition 10 more days for a total of 2 weeks. Bottle or keg. |

Notes: Water report WLFVTGN
This beer is DELICIOUS! I will be making this again! Lots of great comments from friends.
It's not excessively bitter, and the large dry hop and grapefruit zest really brought out the Citra fruity aroma. I made no attempt to prevent the cloudiness of the beer, so it's cloudy, but that's what I like.
I was inspired by Cigar City's Guayaberas to make an IPA that was not excessively bitter, but was very juicy and delicious, with large grapefruit notes.
Brewing notes:
There are very little hops used in the boil. Only 1 oz at 60 mins. 2 ounces went into the kettle at a 180º whirlpool, which I stirred for 15 minutes. I used a large amount of hops, -5oz-, to dry hop, along with the zest of two grapefruits. The dry hop and zest were added in sanitized bags, with a sanitized spoon to make them sink.
I used distilled water built up to the specifications listed in my water chemistry profile
I'd even like to try the recipe again and adjust the hop schedule. I didn't think it was excessively bitter, but I'd like to try skipping the 60 minute boil and adding a 10 minute hop addition. I'll try it when I'm not as burned out on NE IPA's. |

Notes: -5 Gallons of Apple Juice, Tree-Top Brand
-2 cans of Apple Juice Concentrate, Tree-Top Brand
-~3/4 Gallon Cranberry Juice (12 cups water, 9 cups cranberries / ~2lbs honey, 6 tbs fresh ginger, dried orange peel simmered ~30mins)
-Yeast Nutrient
-Pectic Enzyme
-Danstar Nottingham Ale Yeast
Primary Ferment: ~2 weeks
Secondary Ferment:
Bottle Condition:
Original Gravity = 1.060 (aiming for ~7.88%abv)
Gravity after one week* = 1.022 (4.99% abv)
Gravity after two weeks** = 1.000 (7.88% abv)
Final Gravity = .998 (8.14% abv)
*Taste after one week: Still really sweet, w/ strong amounts of cranberry flavor -- maybe too much, and good, pink coloring. Very subtle ginger notes; mostly just an after-effect, and not really noticeable up-front. Still really cloudy. Fermenting really slowly, but is progressing. Clean overall taste, not much yeasty flavor. Apple flavor is sort of bland and just sweet; maybe needing more tannin from skins, and store bought juice isn't quite enough. Continued drying & aging should help clarify and sharpen the flavors. Aroma is pretty negligible.
**Taste after two weeks: The sweetness has nearly totally fermented out, w/ good alcoholic sharpness. Has a pretty strong ginger flavor; good pink coloring still (though pretty cloudy overall). Leaves the mouth feeling dry and puckered... Overall, rather dry and tart. Decent apple notes upfront, and then bitter after taste. The yeast is still present, and some aging should mellow that out. Still thinking that the overall apple tone is somewhat flat, and that additional apple tannins would help -- though I think the freshly juiced cranberries added the needed tannins, just not apple-y ones...
[Next time: 1) Just use pre-packaged cranberry juice... 2) Add in a few fresh squeezed / pressed apples for a more robust apple flavor, especially sharp flavored apples.]

Notes: Why spend $2 a pound for flaked corn when you can hot-air pop $.16 worth and achieve the same thing? A full pound of popcorn is an enormous volume, so pop it directly into your mash. It compacts and breaks down when it gets wet. |
