Notes: Double batch was brewed on 12-31-16.
Boil kettle #1 - 10 gal Mega Pot
Boil kettle #2 - 7 gal stainless steel pot

Additional water was added to the pre-boil pot to compensate for losses in evaporation and absorption. We were shooting for roughly a 6-8% loss in water volume during the boil process.

The cascade hops were added at the 55 minute mark or 5 min boil time instead of 10 min. We wanted to retain more of the hop essential oils and aromas in the wort.

The beer had quite a bit of sediment/trub in the pot as we experienced a few clogged hoses and a clogged pickup tube during the racking process from the boil kettle to the fermenter. Most of the sludge was due to hop material that had absorbed liquid wort. Next time it would be worth the effort to contain the hops in a cheesecloth bag or some type of strainer vessel.

10 gal brew pot #1 had additional water added after the boil to bring up the volume to roughly 5 gal. Not sure why there was a significant difference between pot #1 and pot #2 with regard to water losses during the boil. Perhaps pot #1 had a more vigorous boil.

Post-boil gravity was 1.075 in a 70 degree room.

Racked beer to keg on 1-22-17. Initial tasting was excellent.

Notes: Modified an Kona Castaway clone All-Grain recipe for Extract plus steeping grain. The final specs for the brew closely match those of the All-Grain recipe, however I modified them to reduce the ABV to a more likable 5.6% vice the 6.4% ABV of the All-Grain recipe. Kona website says their Castaway is 6.0% ABV. Also added a bit of 60 L Crystal to the 20 L called for in the All-Grain recipe, to bring the SRM to 10. No comment re: SRM on the Kona site. Also, increased the fermentation volume to 6 gallons to net 5 gallons for bottling in view of dry hopping which always has a bunch of waste due to hop trub. The hops specified on the Kona site, were the ones I used. Adjusted boil volume to allow the hop quantities specified in the All-Grain recipe to hit the Kona-specified 50 IBU.
So, except for the lower ABV, this ought to taste a lot like Kona's Castaway.

Notes: Fermented it on my back porch for the first ten days when it was around 50-60F. Then transferred it after about the 10th day to the secondary fermenter and into my unheated foyer, where it was around 45 for the past 4 weeks. Just bottled it yesterday with cane sugar primer and will store for three weeks at room temp before storing in my cellar for another month at 55. I tasted the beer at bottling and it has a nice crisp, slightly bitter, dry and malty. running about 6.2% ABV. Clear gold color. I really liked this Munich Lager yeast as it really performed in colder temps and attenuated nicely.

Notes: OG: 10.61

A multiple gold medal winner at the Colorado State Fair, this decadent vanilla porter
is sure to raise eyebrows. Most vanilla beer
recipes use one or two vanilla beans; this
one uses five and has the base recipe to
back them up. A rich, smooth porter with
hints of rum and molasses behind a coffee-
like roasted character, then infused with
fragarant vanilla. The beans used in this kit
are 100% Madagascar bourbon beans that provide deep, sweet flavor. The final pint emanates a heady vanilla perfume and makes for both a wonderful after-dinner drink or the ultimate ice cream float.

- Urca Vanilla Bean Blend – cut into approximately 1

/2" pieces and add to secondary fermenter

one week before bottling day

Notes: This is my standard house brew. It is light and enjoyable and tastes great with English or American malts. I always ferment it a touch hot to bring out the fruity characteristics of the yeast which blend nicely with the Tettnang hops.
