Notes: DIRECTIONS
Mill the grains and mash at 150°F (66°C) for 30 minutes, going for a liquor-to-grist ratio of 1.25 quarts/lb (2.6 liters/kg). Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle, adding the first-wort hops. (Stop the runnings if the wort drops below 1.010 or rises to 5.7 pH.) Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 7 gallons (26.5 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate.
Boil for 90 minutes, adding dextrose according to the schedule.
After the boil, do a whirlpool step: Stir or recirculate to create a vortex, adding hops when the wort has cooled to 195°F (91°C); steep 10 minutes.
Chill to 65°F (18°C), aerate the wort, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at 66°F (19°C) for 24 hours, then at 68°F (20°C).
When primary fermentation is complete and gravity has stabilized—typically Day 6—drop the yeast or rack to secondary, add the first dry hops, and raise the temperature to 70°F (21°C). Rouse the hops on Day 7. On Day 8, drop the yeast/trub and add the second dry hops. Drop the trub again after 2 more days. Once the beer has passed a forced diacetyl test for two days (see “Hunting for Diacetyl,” beerandbrewing.com), crash to 30°F (–1°C), add Biofine, and package 1–2 days later, carbonating to 2.75 volumes of CO2.
BREWER’S NOTES
Water profile: Target 100 ppm calcium and a 2:1 sulfate-to-calcium ratio.
pH: We target 5.2 pH in the mash, 5.05 post boil, and below 4.4 post fermentation.
Aeration: We oxygenate to 9 ppm; over-aeration can negatively impact the beer’s longevity.
Yeast pitch: We pitch 800,000 cells per ml/°P/barrel of healthy yeast. Homebrewers will want to make a healthy yeast starter.
IBUs: It’s worth noting that our software massively overestimates IBU calculations, so we adjust accordingly. This recipe shows up as 125 IBUs on our software, but the numbers above reflect what we’ve found by testing the beer. Ultimately, each brewer’s taste buds should lead them to get those IBUs up—or get their beer tested!
Rousing hops: A day after each dry-hop addition, we bubble the tank with 50 psi bursts of CO2, 3 times for 30 seconds each. |

YEAST
Imperial #A07 Flagship ale yeast, starter or multiple packs
WATER
Mash pH of 5.45, pre-boil pH of 5.25, flameout pH of 5.0–5.1. Add acid where needed to hit these numbers. Acidify sparge water to 5.6 pH. Target a water profile of 140 ppm Ca, 50 ppm Mg: 20 ppm Na, 300 ppm SO4 and 75 ppm Cl.
SPECIFICATIONS
Original Gravity: 1.068 (16.5° P)
Final Gravity: 1.010 (2.5° P)
ABV: 7.50%
IBU: 68
SRM: 4
DIRECTIONS
Mash in at 149°F (65°C) and hold for 50 min. Mash out at 168°F (76°C) for 10 min. Fly sparge at 168°F (76°C). Add dextrose and boil 60 minutes. Whirlpool with flameout hops for 20 minutes, and then cool. Oxygenate and pitch an adequate amount of yeast (a starter or multiple packages of yeast) according to mrmalty. com. Don’t significantly overpitch. Ferment at 67°F (19°C).
After a successful forced diacetyl test, cool the beer to 53°F (12°C) for two days. Dump the yeast and trub, if fermenting in a conical, then add the dry hops, back-flushing with CO2 or bubbling CO2 through the fermenter while adding the hops, if possible. Let the fermenter rise to 67°F (19°C) again during the dry hop. The large dry hop amount will likely add another few points of attenuation.
After six days, cool the fermenter to 40° F (4° C) for two days, again dumping hops and remaining yeast, if possible. Fine with 15 mL of BioFine, agitating the beer with CO2 to mix it in thoroughly. Allow the beer to settle and clarify for two days before transferring it to a keg.
Try to avoid introducing oxygen into the finished beer as much as possible (e.g. flush transfer lines with CO2 immediately before the transfer, completely seal the fermenter or keep slight positive pressure on the fermenter during the cold crash and perform a closed transfer to the keg). |

~Stir mash @ 5 min. Temp/pH @ 15 min. Will calculate strike to hit 154*F so after stirring (well) will settle around 153*F.
~Slow down. ...Valve positions.
~Ensure minimum 6 gallons in BK towards end of boil.
~Aerate wort well. Repeat.
~Dry yeast version here. Use 2 packs and rehydrate.
~Primary fermenter 12-14 days then cold crash 2-3 days before kegging.

| Notes: I received the approximate grain bill in mashed and unboiled wort from Petrichor Brewing. They made a 10 Bbl version with the malt percentages in the recipe. I decided on the style and what hops and yeast to use. All the participants will bring the beers they made back as part of a small festival and competition. |

Notes: very nice refreshing Ale I was not sure about Liberty as a single hop, but I like it and would brew this again
I used Briess 2 row for the malt I did one with a German Pale Malt with I liked a little better
I like this with the 05 but the one I did with Nottingham was good also very clean at the 64 - 66 degrees
I called it a Blonde Ale just because that is the numbers I went for with the IBUs, BU/GU ratio
work out nicely |
