Notes: Brewday Notes:
4/7/19: Achieved target mash temp, rested for 1 hour. Vorlaufed until clear of particulate, partially hazy. Batch sparged and ended up with 6.9 G pre boil volume. Boiled 40 minutes (adjusted from original) to hit target gravity. Rapidly cooled with copper immersion chiller to 165 deg, whirpooled hops for 15 minutes. Continued rapid chill until 70 deg.
Transferred roughly 5.25 G of cooled wort to 6 G new glass carboy. Placed in temp controlled freezer set to 67 deg. Once stabilized at target temp pitched still active 1.2 L Amalgamation II starter.
4/10/19: Temp raised to 70 deg. Fermentation activity was not observed until day 5, approximately 3" krausen. Fermentor smells of stone fruit and tropical fruit punch.
4/26/19: Fermentation still ongoing. Plan to let ride for 4 weeks before pitching dry hops and packaging.
05/07/19: Took sample (no dry-hop). Confirmed FG is 1.008 (means we're higher ABV than I wanted). But flavor and appearance was incredible.
Hazy pale straw body, aroma of barnyard sweat/funk, stonefruit, tropical fruit juice, and cereal grain. Taste followed with mild sweetness, very smooth bitterness, stone fruit, and finishes clean/dry with dough and cereal grain.
05/08/19: Plan to dry hop tonight with 2 oz of Galaxy, and 1 oz each of Citra and El Dorado. Let sit for 3-4 days, and cold crash and bottle.
5/11: cold crashed for 2 days, bottled mostly clear beer (still hazy from the spelt), got 48 x 12oz bottles. Target 2.5 vol co2, batch primed in bottling bucket with dextrose, gently stirred to incorporate.
Smell was incredible, over ripde fruit funk, juicy stone fruit, taste followed with doughy grain, and smooth mild bitterness.

| Notes: Add the dry hops at the end of primary fermentation. After the gravity holds steady for 24 hours, cool 2°F (1°C) per hour until the temperature reaches 32°F (0°C). Rack from primary into a secondary vessel, then add the dried hibiscus flowers in a mesh bag and steep for 24 hours. Then rack again or remove the hibiscus. It’s important not to have too much contact time with the hibiscus or you will extract tannins. |

Notes: 1 Vial of The Yeast Bay Saison/Brettanoymces Blend
This blend combines on of the Saccharomyces strains from the Saison Blend and two unique Brettanomyces isolates from our yeast library. The Saccharomyces yeast strain is a strong attenuator that produces a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest and imparts a long, dry and earthy finish to the beer. The Brettanomyces strains are both good attenuators that produce some fruity esters and mild funk, and add a bright character to the beer. The combination of these yeast produces a dry but balanced character with a delightful ester profile and just the right amount of funk. Approximately 58 billion cells/vial.
Temperature: 66-72°F
Attenuation: 80%+
Flocculation: Medium-Low
1L 80g DME shaken starter.
Both the yeast blend and the hop create a citrus flavour. |

| Notes: My efficiency has been a little low, probably closer to 65%, so i'd suggest cutting down on the grain bill slightly. We ended up with an OG of 1.045 and FG of 1.010. Haven't had a chance to try one yet, everything went well on brew day, we're expecting this one to be an easy drinking summer beer. |
