Notes: Spread the pumpkin on a cookie sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes at 350 degrees F before adding to the mash. Rice hulls are helpful to prevent stuck sparges.
Make a "tea" and add the pumpkin spice to the secondary. If you dump it in dry it will collect on top and wont have the same affect. I've done the same during bottling with similar results, but I like the extra settling time of the secondary. |

Notes: No decoction; we will mash off the kettle at 155 deg F (to achieve approx. 150 in the mash tun) for 75 minutes, stirring only; will lauter and boil 75 minutes.
Cool the wort to 5-8 C and pitch the yeast after oxygenating the wort. You may give the beer another shot of oxygen after 10 - 12hrs if no activity is visible yet. Ferment at 8-9 C (46 - 48F ) for 4 weeks or until the attenuation is within 6-8% of the limit of attenuation (Fast Ferment Test). A fermentation below 10 C (50 F) is important to curb the production of fusel alcohols. Yeasts are more prone to the development of higher alcohols in high gravity wort environments. A warm diacetyl rest should not be necessary, but if the yeast shows very slow fermentation performance, raising the beer temperature after 60% attenuation can speed it up. |

Recipe based on Kelsey McNairs Session IPA with a slightly tweaked grain bill and different hops.
http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/stone-ballast-point-kelsey-mcnair-collaboration-201080/
https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/forum/index.php?topic=11610.0
Mashed in with 20L water at strike temp of 78oC. Mash temp of 69oC (target 70oC). Mash pH looks about right from pH strips (perhaps a little more towards 5.2 than 5.5).
Top up with 3L of water at end of the mash to recover 15L of wort
Batch sparge with 2 x 15L water to recover a total volume of 45L for the boil.
Calcium Sulphate (as gypsum): 4g to malt grist and 5g to the boil
Calcium Chloride added to the strike water as 33% solution (not as dihydrate) so scaling / correction factor = 110.98 g/mol (anhydrous) / 147.014 g/mol (dihydrate) * 3 = 2.26. 3.5 x 2.26 = 7.91 mL.
Lactic Acid (88%) added to strike water (5.6 mL) and to sparge water (3.3 mL).
Rehydrated 2 packets US-05 in 2 x 110 mL cooled boiled water at 37oC.
1. Sprinkle yeast onto surface of water in a glass bottle, cover with foil and let stand for 15 mins.
2. Stir yeast with sanitised spoon and let stand for 5 mins.
3. Stir again to form a cream and let stand for 5 mins.
4. Bring down to wort temperature by adding small increments of cooled boiled water.
5. Pitch into beer within 30 mins.
Beer 1 (no clarity ferm / carrier fermentor) 21L at 1.047 (after dilution) yeast pitched at 23oC
Beer 2 yeast (+ clarity ferm / no carrier) pitched at 18oC
Beers fermented in our cellar storage at 15-15.5oC.
Collected 2 samples to run an FFT at ambient in our kitchen (21-25oC).
24/01/15 - FFT results. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Did a diacetyl test on each sample and definitely diacetyl after heating the samples and then cooling (repeated 5 days later and much less diacetyl).
25/01/15 (Sun, Day 8) Moved into the boiler room at 21oC for "d-rest" before dry hopping.
28/01/15 (Wed, Day 11) - Dry hops added 34g of each varietal in each beer (so 102g DH in ~20L beer [~5 g/L]). Decided against adding Columbus as planned as the hops just did not smell as good as the others (perhaps a little oxidised as the other packets were all opened fresh for the brewday but the columbus was opened a few brewdays ago). Samples taken for gravity readings. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Ran a diacetyl test and a small amount detected.
02/02/15 (Mon, Day 16) - Taken to the attic to crash chill (5 days on DH). Attic temp (1oC).
05/02/15 (Thurs, Day 19) - Kegged both beers in corny kegs that had been CO2 purged by transferring a full keg of Starsan from one keg to another under pressure.
Hydro samples tasted fantastic. Very clear and great hop aroma and low / moderate bitterness. Beer was at 3oC after crash chilling so took a while to warm up.
Kegs hooked up to CO2 and purged again before adding 2 bar (30 psi) pressure.
FG = 1.013 for both beers, so 4.5% ABV. |

Notes: Smooth, rich, velvety, not too roasty, not too dry! Coffee roast notes without a burnt flavor. GREAT beer.
Wyeast 1335 is an option, but the 1450 gives a luscious mouthfeel.
Finishes at 1.016-1.020, depending on yeast strain.
For dry yeast S04 would work, but keep it on the low temperature range, 62-65 if possible.
For Imperial, use A10.

Notes: https://beerandbrewing.com/recipe-reubens-triple-crush/
From Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine, Aug-Sep 2020
This homebrew-size recipe is based on the fast-selling triple IPA from Reuben’s Brews. Emphasize yeast health with a big starter, generously dry hop, then give it enough time to cold condition.
Batch size: 5.5 gallons (21 liters)
Brewhouse efficiency: 75%
OG: 1.092
FG: 1.016
IBUs: 50 ABV: 10%
Adjust your water profile to ensure a mash pH of 5.3 and a chloride-to-sulfate ratio of 3:1. Mash the grains at 148°F (64°C) for 60 minutes. Vorlauf until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains and top up as necessary to obtain 6 gallons (22.7 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding the corn sugar and hops according to the schedule. Whirlpool for 10 minutes.
After the boil, chill the wort to about 67°F (19°C). Aerate the wort and pitch a big, healthy yeast starter. Ferment at 69°F (21°C). After primary fermentation is complete, add the dry hops for three days. Ensure a full diacetyl rest in case of refermentation—if possible, test for VDK levels (see “Hunting for Diacetyl,” beerandbrewing.com). Crash to 38°F (3°C) or lower for at least a week, then package and carbonate. |

Notes: I think I'll add cooked cherries to 2ndary then rack over them from primary.
For the roasted grains, I used 3 times the recipe weight above, and cold-steeped in water for 24 hrs using 1 gallon per 3 lbs of grain (just used 2 gal for this batch)
When doing this and on brew day go to the mash calc page and adjust the weight of the grain in the mash down to roasted grains taken out to get water volumes
--
Learned nibs primarily impart nose so doing 2oz cocoa powder in the boil at 15 min and 2 oz nibs. 2-4 nibs in the 2ndary with the cherries
Low mash temp which perplexes me since the numbers were on. Doing a 1.5G decoction 30 minutes in to the mash |

after carbonation, gelatin and aging this is the best brown ale Ive made, this is a winner |
