Notes: 22/2/19 - Batch #1 (50% Eff.)
- Made to clean out spare hops ended up with a single hop beer.
- Used Quick Oats (500g) and IPA/DIPA Water profile.
- Very windy and wet brew day, low efficiency too.
3/3/19 - SG: 1014, dry hopped.
7/3/19 - SG: 1013, cold crashed.
13/3/19 - Kegged and carbed, looking very pale straw.
12/4/19 - Not an amazing beer, not terrible, just meh. Has mellowed a bit with age, earthy and fruit flavours. |

Notes: 1800 mil starter
dissolve cocoa powder with 5 oz corn sugar
in 1 qt hot water to make syrup.Add syrup
45 minutes into the boil.
2-3 vanilla beans soaked for a week
in rum added to secondary.
This beer finished at 1.020 due to the
unfermentables and high mash temp.
The F.G was 5.0 a bit lower than
expected.Efficiency was way off.
In my 14 years of brewing this is my
personal favorite beer.
Head retention and lacing last to the
bottom of the glass.
Batch #2 finished at 1.015 and shows
in final ABV.This is where I want this
beer to finish,it is more to the style.
Brewhouse efficiency was around 62% in first batch.Batch #2 was 73% which is
about right for my system.
ABV 5.70 nice winter beer with some
alcohol warmth.First batch was thin.
Chewy,nice chocolate-coffee flavors
with a touch of vanilla.
I`ve made 4 batch`s of this and found
that this last batch from 1-2-14 has hit
it`s peak after 4 months.
The longer it ages the better it gets.
Batch 3 and 4 I made this year (2014)
Jan. and April.I`ve got it dialed in
at 5.70 ABV and recipe is solid at 70%
efficiency.If you try this recipe I hope
you have good luck with it.The rum and vanilla beans are what make this standout
for the final taste and richness.I would
recommend to age at least 2 months.
Great Holiday brew - enjoy-

Notes: Brewed very successfully on 04/23/16. Pitched decanted yeast at 61 degrees.
Gravity read 12.75 brix (1.0495) which equates to 75% efficiency (almost 76)- initially aimed at 71% - Double milled grain.
Mashed at 150 exact at dough in, and 149 @30 mins.
The water loss calculation of .14 can probably be brought down to .135 since there was still a substantial amount of wort in the cooler as I lifted the bag.
Overall, went great!
***9 hours later raised temp to 65 due to not activity.***
04/24/16: 15 hours after raising the temp to 65 and there was lots of fermentation activity. Turned down temp to 64.
***11 hours later brought down temp to 63. There was krausen ejected and a lot of activity - had to clean the blow off tube as I was afraid it would blow the lid - seemed a bit clogged***
04/26/16: beer was at 61 degrees and still bubbling but a lot slower. I took off the cover and see that there's still some krausen ontop and lots of yeast still in suspension and some smell of sulfur.
Meter @72 degrees measured 6 brix (1.0106 @4.9%).
Temp was raised to 66 degrees in hopes of giving it a d-rest. FG is expected around 1.008-1.009
04/17/16: Some bubbling still, and temp was at 65 degrees.
04/30/16: @67 degrees and 5.9 brix. Taste no diacetyl, but there is smell of sulfur. (1.0103 @5%). Not bad. Cannot taste any hop presence.
05/05/16: kegged today. No sulfur smell anymore! Did not have much of a smell at all, and the yeast had dropped and compacted to the bottom.
Measured 5.7 brix @69 degrees (1.0096 @ 5.1%). Nice! 79% apparent attenuation.

Notes: Made a 2.2 L starter w/ 8 oz. DME (pale/pilsner mix). Put starter in the fridge after 12 hours to decant, but noticed globs of yeast jumping from the bottom cake 3 hours later (still in fridge). Took starter out of the fridge as i chilled the wort to 72 degrees. Decanted about a liter of liquid and pitched the rest. Would have liked to decant all of the liquid, but I figured there might be a fair amount of yeast still in suspension. I hope it doesn't screw the batch. Kreuzen forming activity w/ in 4 hours of pitching yeast. Still at 72 degrees in a room that is significantly cooler than that. I've got a fermwrap on it that will kick on at 69 and turn off at 70. Planning to ferment at 70.
Edit: I screwed up the hop schedule b/c when I originally was formulating the recipe it was as a 3 gallon boil. I did a 6.5 gallon boil, so I got more utilization. Still w/in the style, but will likely be more bitter than Fuller's. Time will tell.
After 3 days the beer was down to FG of 1.013. I was getting some jumping globs of yeast at the bottom of the carboy, which I suspect was off gassing giving some flocs a ride. This was still apparent, but minimal, when I racked on to .33 oz of EKG in secondary on day 8. Tasted ok. A bit fruity and perhaps a tad too bitter (see above). Based on some reading, I probably fermented too warm which upped the fruitiness. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops. |
