Notes: ----P4#6

--- P4#5
15.3.17
Malt bill mix of #1 and #4 (4% Carafa II and 10% Brown). Rest of recipe the same as #1-#4.
Initial Mash Ph = 6.5 (optimal 5.2-5.5)
30min/final Mash Ph = 5.8 (still too high)
Preboil gravity = 12.8P (slightly higher than #1-#4)
Original gravity = 14.5P (higher than #1-#4)

20.3.17
Ph 4.27, temp 19.5°C

--- P4#4
Now we're changing up the malt bill quite a bit; No cara malt and using 50% brownmalt together with 50% pale ale malt. The rest is identical and aiming for similar degrees of plato; 13°P. Expected color is very dark since we're using 50% of the roasted malt, however it is very lightly roasted, only about 65 Lovibond (Carafa ~400 and Chocolate ~300).

Mash Ph = 6.0 (higher than optimal 5.2-5.5)
Gravity preboil 11.5°P (lower than #1 - #3)
Gravity post boil 13.5°P
Post boil volume 18.5L
Final volume in fermenter 16L
Final gravity 3.7P (after 7 days, higher than #1-#3)
Final pH 4.34

-- P4#3
Same recipe as P4#1 with BEST Chocolate instead of Carafa II
BEST Chocolate grined finer than rest
Firstwort hopping. New package of Columbus opened, different from #1 and #2. 9g old (16.3% alpha), 6g new (14.1% alpha)
Removed 0.5L in the beginning of boil for yeast hydration. Maybe some hops were also removed.
Preboil: 12.4P (slightly higher than #1 and #2)
Beer appears dark brown. Nice color.
Underpitched with dry yeast: 0.45M/ml/P (1 package, 11g)
Postboil: 14.2P (higher than #1 and #2)
Final Ph before fermentation about 5.2
Final volume in fermenter 15.5L
Final gravity 2-2.5°P.

-- P4#2
Same recipe as P4#1 with Carafa III Special instead of Carafa II
Garafa III grined finer than rest
Firstwort hopping (removed 0.5L before boil for yeast dehydration. Removing during boil means removing some hops. Wort was boiled separately).
Preboil: 21.5l 12ºP
Beer apears almost black. Darker than #1. More than expected
Underpitched with dry yeast: 0.45M/ml/P (1 package, 11g)
Postboil: 18.5lit. 13ºP
Final volume in fermenter 16L

-- P4 #1
Carafa II grind finer than CaraMunich & Pale Ale.
Firstwort hopping
Preboil: 22lit. 12ºP
Beer appears to be darker than recipe.
Postboil: 19lit. 13ºP
Bitterness: slightly above average (3.5/5bitterness)
Color: Dark, almost black
Underpitched with dry yeast: 0.45M/ml/P
Final Gravity: about 2.5ºP (picture) -> 5.7%
End of fermentation: Very light in aroma and a smooth bitterness (3/5biterness)

Notes: Slightly amber and very hoppy Mosaic Session IPA! Crowd pleaser.

Actual IBU: 70

First attempt at making a half-batch! This is more than double my typical brew and I expect to get a full 2-4 out of it! Wo-hoo! Now the only challenge is to make it work with the ingredients I have on hand - I just found this big jug today for 20 bucks and originally I expected to do this mosaic session ale with the same 26g hops for only 4.5L! I found enough hops leftover in my freezer to bring the base full-boil bitterness up to a nice IPA level without affecting the taste of mosaic in the flavour and aroma categories.

To improve hop utilization, I'll do a 60min boil with 600g light and 250g dark DME. The honey, 400g light DME and 200g dark DME will be added at 50mins. I still want to boil everything for at least 30 mins, so wait 20 mins before adding the 10 min additions (hops, irish moss). Estimated IBU increases from 41 to 70!

Notes: Add 500mg potassium metabisulphite to 20 gallons water to remove chlorine/chloramine (as required).
Water treated with brewing salts to: Ca=110, Mg=18, Na=16, Cl=50, S04=279
(Basically Randy Mosher's ideal Pale Ale numbers with slightly less Sulphate).
1.5 qt/lb mash thickness. Single infusion mash at 150F for 90 mins. Mashout to 168F.
60-90 min fly sparge with ~6 pH water. Collect 14.9 gallons in the boil kettle.
Boil for 90 minutes. Lid on at flameout, start chilling immediately.
Cool wort to 66F and aerate well. Ferment at 66-68F until complete.
Add dry hops once fermentation is nearing completion (ie: below 1.015). Dry hop for 7-10 days total.
Rack to brite tank (secondary), crash chill to near freezing (if possible), add 1 tsp of unflavoured gelatin dissolved in a cup of hot distilled water per 5 gallons of beer, and let clear for 2-3 days.
Package as you would normally. I keg and carbonate on the low side (around 2 to 2.2 volumes of C02) to minimize carbonic bite and let the hop/malt flavour come through.

If you prefer to use liquid yeast, either of these is an excellent choice as they are the same clean fermenting Chico strain as US-05:

Wyeast 1056 American Ale (Buy at: Amazon, MoreBeer, HighGravity, AiH, OBK)
White Labs WLP-001 California Ale (Buy at: Amazon, MoreBeer, HighGravity, AiH, OBK)

Whole raspberries frozen and pasteurized before adding. Im not sure when exactly I added them but i let it sit on the raspberries for a few months

From conversation with Chris regarding the raspberry addition : "i think it was about 3 weeks in primary and then raspberries added to secondary for several months until it had the sourness I wanted. wlp630 takes a long time for the lacto to get going"
