Notes: Brewed Sunday 18th January 2015.
Recipe based on Kelsey McNairs Session IPA with a slightly tweaked grain bill and different hops.

Mashed in with 20L water at strike temp of 78oC. Mash temp of 69oC (target 70oC). Mash pH looks about right from pH strips (perhaps a little more towards 5.2 than 5.5).
Top up with 3L of water at end of the mash to recover 15L of wort
Batch sparge with 2 x 15L water to recover a total volume of 45L for the boil.

Calcium Sulphate (as gypsum): 4g to malt grist and 5g to the boil
Calcium Chloride added to the strike water as 33% solution (not as dihydrate) so scaling / correction factor = 110.98 g/mol (anhydrous) / 147.014 g/mol (dihydrate) * 3 = 2.26. 3.5 x 2.26 = 7.91 mL.
Lactic Acid (88%) added to strike water (5.6 mL) and to sparge water (3.3 mL).

Rehydrated 2 packets US-05 in 2 x 110 mL cooled boiled water at 37oC.
1. Sprinkle yeast onto surface of water in a glass bottle, cover with foil and let stand for 15 mins.
2. Stir yeast with sanitised spoon and let stand for 5 mins.
3. Stir again to form a cream and let stand for 5 mins.
4. Bring down to wort temperature by adding small increments of cooled boiled water.
5. Pitch into beer within 30 mins.

Beer 1 (no clarity ferm / carrier fermentor) 21L at 1.047 (after dilution) yeast pitched at 23oC
Beer 2 yeast (+ clarity ferm / no carrier) pitched at 18oC
Beers fermented in our cellar storage at 15-15.5oC.

Collected 2 samples to run an FFT at ambient in our kitchen (21-25oC).

24/01/15 - FFT results. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Did a diacetyl test on each sample and definitely diacetyl after heating the samples and then cooling (repeated 5 days later and much less diacetyl).

25/01/15 (Sun, Day 8) Moved into the boiler room at 21oC for "d-rest" before dry hopping.

28/01/15 (Wed, Day 11) - Dry hops added 34g of each varietal in each beer (so 102g DH in ~20L beer [~5 g/L]). Decided against adding Columbus as planned as the hops just did not smell as good as the others (perhaps a little oxidised as the other packets were all opened fresh for the brewday but the columbus was opened a few brewdays ago). Samples taken for gravity readings. Beer 1 = 1.014. Beer 2 = 1.013. Ran a diacetyl test and a small amount detected.

02/02/15 (Mon, Day 16) - Taken to the attic to crash chill (5 days on DH). Attic temp (1oC).

05/02/15 (Thurs, Day 19) - Kegged both beers in corny kegs that had been CO2 purged by transferring a full keg of Starsan from one keg to another under pressure.

Hydro samples tasted fantastic. Very clear and great hop aroma and low / moderate bitterness. Beer was at 3oC after crash chilling so took a while to warm up.

Kegs hooked up to CO2 and purged again before adding 2 bar (30 psi) pressure.

FG = 1.013 for both beers, so 4.5% ABV.

Notes: your probably going to need a filter or cold crash after dry hopping or both, but I choose to condition in a keg for 7 days to settle everything to the bottom then transfer to serving keg and slow carb. this will seem very strong at first but will come together after 15 days of aging

this does not taste like LIL Helper at all but it is very good, I might rename it lol

Notes: Spread the pumpkin on a cookie sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes at 350 degrees F before adding to the mash. Rice hulls are helpful to prevent stuck sparges.

Make a "tea" and add the pumpkin spice to the secondary. If you dump it in dry it will collect on top and wont have the same affect. I've done the same during bottling with similar results, but I like the extra settling time of the secondary.

Notes: Double Decoction:

*Note: Pilsner Urquell uses a triple decoction method with an initial acid rest, but I use well enough modified malts and correct for pH already so the first of three decoctions is unnecessary. The decoction measurements below are ones I developed for an electric system and err on the side of caution, so they are the lower amounts needed to potentially reach the next temperature step and direct heat can be applied to compensate.*

Perform a protein rest at 125F for 15min, then pull off slightly less than 1/3 (1.16gal/4.4L) of the thickest mash and place it in a separate pot. Bring the pot slowly up to 158F and hold for 15min, then slowly bring it up to a boil and proceed to boil for 10min. Stir often so the grains do not burn, but try to allow some 'browning' to help darken the colour and enhance the flavour/aroma profiles. Add the decoction back to the 125F mash, little by little, aiming for a beta rest temperature of 148F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. After this has finished, pull off roughly 1/6 (0.7gal/2.6L) of the thickest mash a second time and place it in the separate pot. Slowly bring the pot up to a boil and continue to boil for 10min. Add the second decoction back to the mash, little by little, aiming for an alpha rest temperature of 158F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. Once this rest has finished, raise the temperature up to a mash out rest of 167F and hold for 10min. After the decoctions and mash out are finished proceed to sparge/lauter as usual.

No Decoction:

Instead of the labour intensive double decoction mash schedule you could:

- Substitute some of the pilsner malt for vienna and/or munich to add colour and depth.
- Include some melanoidin malt for a slight decoction 'feel'.
- Add some carapils malt (or your preferred alternative) for improved head retention.
- After which, just carry out a temperature/infusion mash schedule based on your preferences.

**This beer won a national silver medal at the Saskatoon Headhunters Competition (2017) and has consistently scored 40's at other national competitions.

Notes: rolled oats should be naked oats..http://www.midwestsupplies.com/maillard-malts-simpsons-golden-naked-oats.html

http://www.milkthefunk.com/wiki/Brettanomyces#Pitching_Rate_Calculators

Use blowoff tube then tinfoil (reduces pressure)

Add wood, he says you need 1-2 weeks crash to get yeast to settle, review sour book for bottle conditioning p188

69 ferment raise to 72

Oxygen as normal

2-3 weeks for ferment, 2-3 weeks to rest and undergo secondary fermentation run and ensure Gravity is done

Notes: Normally re-pitch my Marzen into a Steam but this year I decided to try something a little lighter
