Notes: This is the first of 3 experiments on base malts. Yes its not what you'd expect for a malt experiment, high IBU and some pretty flavor tweaking special malts. But I dont really care what the base malts 'taste like by themselves' as much as how they taste in my favorite brews, IPA's :) All ingredients are kept common except the main malt bill. American Rahr 2 row, Experiment 2 will be German Munich Malt. Experiment 3 English Maris Otter. Ill report back after making and tasting all 3.
Note still a 60 minute boil, but I achieve the IBU I want with more hops and not adding them until 30 minutes in, to maintain more hop flavor and aroma. Takes slightly more hops but worth it IMO.
Cheers, Jim http://jimsbrews.blogspot.com/ |

Notes: BW#2
Based on the original recipe this time I want to achieve the following:
*No DMS this time, not sure how to do this but more attention to the heating of the wort in the boiler and CO2 blanketing
*Dry hop to hell! 100g in 4.5lts worked a treat so I would like to dry hop this one with 300g of Cascade.
*No stuck mash, not sure if this is entirely possible but I have added rice hulls to this recipe to ensure that I get a better runoff
*No addition of Maltodextrin at the end of fermentation. This time I shall ensure that the lactobacillus culture is active and lively before pitching with the US05
*I shall be adding a good 1-2lt pitch of my house culture of lactics and wild yeast cultured from some grain suspended in a demijohn of wort. This has been drained and fed a couple of times and I am pretty sure I also added some dregs from a lambic bottle too.
*Increase head retention: Add enough 80% Lactic Acid in the wort prior to heat/boil/fermentation to reduce the pH down to 4.4 apparently this will inhibit the lactics breaking down the large proteins I need for head retention. We shall see.
Mash Schedule:
*Dough in 11lts of liquor at 62°C(?) to start the mash at 52°C
*Leave for 10 minutes
*Remove approximately 30% of the mash and put in a large saucepan
*Add 30g of Fuggle hops
*Heat to 60°C and hold for 1-2 minutes
*Bring to a boil and leave for 20 minutes
*Return the boiled decoction to the main mash and stir
*Mash temp should now be 63°C
*Leave for 45 minutes
*Fly sparge with near boiling water (95°C)to collect 26lts in the boiler
*Adjust wort pH in the boiler using 80% Lactic Acid, before heating, to a pH of 4.4
*Heat until bubbles appear
*Chill to 20°C
*Pitch yeast and house culture
Extra Cultures Being Added:
*Vicaris - Triple/Geuze
*Odell - 5 Barrel Pale Ale
*Siren Craft Brewery - Gouttière Saison
*Wild Beer - Solera Aged Beer
Well I've done it, I placed 2nd in the London & SE Home Brew Competition in April 2015
See the link for the website, I knew this was a great beer, it was balanced and hoppy, but every time I opened a bottle I just thought 'wow Ive done it'
Much thanks goes to Michale Tonsmeire. Cheers! |
