Notes: Cream Ale Recipe
This is a very simple, inexpensive cream ale recipe that will get every BMC drinker in the room enjoying homebrew. So named because of the three different crops that go into the grist (Barley, Corn and Rice).
I brewed up 10 gallons of this and after kegging, bottled up a case to take to a family event (Mothers Day). Even my 78-yr old FIL, who is strict Miller Lite drinker, ended up having two pints. The chics dug it and we ran out well before the end of the evening.
The grain bill is cheap and in this case, you can use Minute Rice instead of flaked rice. No step mashing required. Simply combine the ingredients and follow a simple single infusion mash at around 152 degrees. I also mashed this for 90 minutes to get a highly attenuated beer. FG was 1.005...leaving a very dry, crisp beer with no noticeable graininess.
While this doesn't adhere to the strict beer laws, and I don't consider this one of my "craft" efforts, it is without a doubt the beer that I get the most "you really made this beer?" comments.
So if you've got some hard core "If it ain't Budweiser it ain't beer…" drinking friends…give this a try.
This beer clears up quickest of any of my recipes. |

Notes: Using a starter from last batch - part WLP005 and part Voss Kviek.
The mash SG was so high I had to keep sparging to get the SG down to 1.045. After adding hops and boil and cool it was apparent the color was not there. I added 1 more oz each of Roasted Barley and Midnight Wheat, along with the rest of the package of EKG hops. After pressure cooking late addition and tasing it was very harsh (bitter) so I added 3/4 gallon of wort (at 1.050) from Dark DME and RO water. This mellowed out the excessive bitterness. Yeast was pitched in early evening. Ended up over 5 gallons of wort to ferment.
3o-15-18 Brix = 3.80 or 1.0148 S.G. |

Notes: Mash at 156°F (69°C) for one hour, adjusting pH to 5.2 with citric acid if necessary. Mash out at 168°F (76°C). Fly sparge at 168-170°F (76-77°C). Don’t use Whirlfloc or Irish moss in the boil. Chill to 108°F (42°C) and add whirlpool hops, stirring or whirlpooling to keep hops in suspension for 60 minutes. Chill to 70°F (21°C) and pitch dry yeast blend; do not pitch more WB-06 and T-58 than specified, as they will dominate the clean base strain. There is no need to hydrate the dry yeast prior to pitching and no need to aerate or oxygenate the wort. After 24 hours, lower fermentation temperature gradually to 64°F (18°C) over a 60-hour period, let fermentation run at 64° F for 4-5 days depending on yeast activity, and then add the dry hops to primary and ferment to completion (usually about 2 days). Take care to minimize oxygen uptake at all times after fermentation. Cold crash to 32°F (0°C) for 2 days, then closed-transfer to a keg and force carbonate. |
