Notes: Pumpkin 5 lb (shallow baking pan with little water @325 x 1hr or @300 x 2hr)
either steep with grains @ 150-155 degrees for 1 hr & sparge
* or add to boil for more flavor & body
If adding pumpkin to boil, steep grains for only 30 min @ 150-155.
Spring water 3.5 gal initial boil. Sanitize fermenter/carboy with Saniclean. Save sanitizer for hydrometer, spatula, & air lock.
Steep grains for 30 min at 155-160F (158).
Add bittering hops (not in bag), bring to boil, & boil for 30 min.
After 30 min boil, add pumpkin (not in bag), flavoring hops (not in bag), & boil 30 min.
With 10 min left in boil, add irish moss & yeast nutrient (if using).
With 5 min left, add spices & strainer (to sanitize).
End of boil add vanilla.
Cool wort with ice (3 10lb bags) in garden tub stirring ice 1 way & wort counter. Add frozen spring water (1 gal in 2 small amounts from 2 plastic containers that were sanitized prior to water being added). After cooling to 60F, aerate well then pour into fermenter through sanitized strainer & QS to 5 gal with refrigerated / room temp spring water dropping temp to 65F.
Check OG with SANITIZED hydrometer & pitch yeast. Dry yeast should be suspended in 100ml of water @ ~85F for 15 min.
Leave in garden tub with water in closet at 66F (or minimal recommended fermentation temp), after 48 hr active fermentation with temp @ 66F, slowly let temp increase to 72F max (or max 3 degrees less than recommended fermentation temp). After 10-14 days, transfer to 2nd fermenter or keg. Have blow out tube ready @36 hr. Total fermentation/lager time 4 weeks.

Notes: Collect 128 ounces of first runnings, boil down to about 16 ounces to caramelize, and add to brew pot. (This is reduced less than called for in original recipe, which would be about 8 ounces for this size batch.)
Skotrat uses Northern Brewer hops, but according to the Traquair House site East Kent Goldings are used. I've used both, either is fine.
Traquair House uses isinglass instead of Irish moss.

Notes: Lower Protein rest should result in lower head retention. This is planned as it will be highly carbed and may have problems pouring with high head retention.
Higher mash temps to give it a bigger body to balance out the acidity of the blueberries. You can alter the temps to fit the blueberries you can get.
The higher carbonation gave it an almost champagne-like feeling. Very spritzy and delicious. |
