Notes: The base recipe is from Morebeer's Pliny the Elder kit (malts and whole hops). **Note, I added more DME to this calculator to get actual ABV of around 9.45% OG: 1.085, FG: 1.013. Use 0.5 lbs DME, next time I might skip the maltodextrin, the beer tastes slightly sweet but balanced. I also pitched 2x yeast vials.
Oak chips were aged six months on about 5oz of Evan Williams on a full packet (12oz?) oak. This provided a nice smokey flavor and means that I didn't have to sanitize the wood chips. Added oak with dry hop pellets. I feel the oak significantly zapped the hops flavor, beer is balanced or tilting sweet almost. |

Notes:
OG = 1.050
FG = 1.010
ABV = 5.25%
Nose is slightly sweet, pleasant yeasty aroma, no discernible hop aroma,
color is "reddish" amber with slight brown overtones, froth is light beige to white with good retention, some legs remaining as is drank.
Taste is of moderate to light carbonation, slightly sweet malty backbone with very light caramel overtones with rich taste, good body, very smooth with lingering bitterness that is well balanced to its overall taste.
In my opinion, somewhere between a Newcastle Brown Ale and Karl Strauss Red Trolley Ale as an example.
Temperature is key here, as is using a starter. Used two litters of ambient water to package of liquid yeast. Added 1/4 cup honey as "food" but not enough to start fermentation. Allowed to sit in dark for 24/36 hours before added to wort. I attribute the starter technique to the "attenuation" being 79%
During fermentation, never got above 66 F and averaged 64-66 F during the first seven days. Secondary/conditioning allowed to rise to 68 F for the remaining seven days prior to cold crashing and filtering into kegs. Allowed to rest an additional seven days prior to drinking
I use a water bath to control temperature and glass carboy. Fermentation started in under 12 hours which was robust and had to change overflow bottle twice.
As is always maintained is meticulous sterile/clean procedure.

Notes: Hop Bursting går ut på å la all bitterheten i et brygg komme fra sene humletilsetninger. Dette gir en mildere bitterhet og et tonn med deilig aroma! |
