| Notes: This was a second runnings batch that I decided to make from the left over grains of the Russian Imperial Stout Barrel Project. Boiled for 75min because I topped off a gallon of water which had the additional sugars in it and that was too much water. Efficiency is low to simply match the OG I got. |

Pre-Brew: Sanitize
Sanitization is important, but it's nothing scary. When brewing, keep everything clean so that you give what you're brewing its best chance to succeed. So when preparing for brew day, wipe any crumbs off the counters. Move any clutter that might be in your way. Read through the rest of the instructions (at least through fermentation) so that you know what to expect. And have fun!
Dissolve half of your sanitizer packet with a gallon of water in a container. Save the second half for when you bottle.
Soak everything you are going to use, rinse with water, and let air dry on some paper towels. If it isn’t totally dry when you are ready to start don’t worry.
Keep the extra sanitizer in a container for now. Chances are you’ll want to re-sanitize something later.
Additional Ingredients Needed:
2 Lemons
3 Tablespoons Honey
Ice
1: The Mash
During The Mash, you're extracting all the sugars, color and flavor you can from grain. You're basically just steeping grain in hot water. It's a lot like making oatmeal.
Heat 2.5 quarts (2.4 liters) of water to 160°F (71°C).
Add grain (This is called “mashing in.” Take note of jargon. Or don’t).
Mix gently with spoon or spatula until mash has consistency of oatmeal. Add water if too dry or hot. Temperature will drop to ~150°F (66°C).
Cook for 60 minutes at 144-152°F (63-68°C). Stir every 10 minutes, and use your thermometer to take temperature readings from multiple locations.
You likely don’t need to apply heat constantly. Get it up to temperature, then turn the heat off. Monitor, stir, and adjust accordingly to keep in range.
After 60 minutes, heat to 170°F (77°C) while stirring constantly (“Mashing Out”).
2: The Sparge
If you're familiar with brewing coffee, you should have an idea of how The Sparge works. During The Sparge, you put the grain in a strainer and pour hot water over it to draw out all those sugars you created during The Mash.
Heat additional 4 quarts (3.8 liters) of water to 170°F (77°C). (If possible, start this during The Mash to save time.)
Set up your “lauter tun” (a strainer over a pot).
Carefully add the hot grain mash to the strainer, collecting the liquid that passes through.
This liquid is called “wort” (pronounced “wert”). It will be your beer.
Slowly and evenly pour 170°F (77°C) water over the mash to extract the grain’s sugars.
You want to collect 5 quarts (4.75 liters) of wort. You will lose about 20% to evaporation later on, so you want to start with a bit more than you’ll end with.
Re-circulate wort through grain once.
3: The Boil
The Boil is probably the easiest step to understand because it's as simple as it sounds. During this step, you're bringing your wort to a low, rolling boil and keeping it there for a period of time while adding things like hops or spices. It's a lot like cooking a soup or stock in that you'll add heartier or bittering ingredients toward the beginning and more delicate and aromatic ingredients toward the end.
In a pot, heat wort until it boils. Add 1/5 Hops when you start to heat the wort.
Keep boiling until you’ve hit the “hot break” (Wort will foam - you may need to reduce heat slightly so it doesn’t boil over.)
Stir occasionally. All you want is a light boil – too hot and you lose fermentable sugars and volume.
The boil will last 60 minutes. Start your timer and add in the rest of the ingredients at these times:
Add 1/5 Hops 20 minutes into boil.
Add peel from 1 lemon 55 minutes into boil.
At 60 minutes turn off heat. Add 1/5 Hops.
Twenty percent of the wort will have evaporated in this step leaving you with 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of wort. If your boil was a bit high, the surface area of your pot extra large, or you brewed on a really hot day, you may have less than the full amount. Don’t worry – you just reduced your beer a bit too much, but you can add more water in the next step.
4: Fermentation
This is when your beer actually becomes alcoholic. During Fermentation, your jugs should sit somewhere out of the way (and out of direct sunlight) while ale yeast turns sugar into alcohol.
Place brew pot in an ice bath until it cools to 70°F (21°C).
Once cooled, place strainer over funnel and pour your beer into the glass fermenter. Yeast needs oxygen. The strainer helps aerate your wort and clarify your beer (as well as catch any sediment from going into the fermenter). Add tap water to bring wort up to 1 Gallon mark if level is low.
“Pitch” yeast. (Toss the whole packet in.)
Shake aggressively. You’re basically waking up the yeast and getting more air into the wort.
Attach sanitized screw-top stopper to bottle. Slide rubber tubing no more than 1” (2.5 cm) into the stopper and place the other end in small bowl of sanitizer solution. You’ve just made a “blow-off tube”. It allows CO2 to escape.
Let sit for two or three days or until vigorous bubbling subsides. This is when fermentation is highest. You may notice bubbles and foam at the top of the beer. After bubbling calms down, clean tubing and ready your airlock.
Open your fermenter and drop 1/5 Hops into your beer. This is called dry hopping and will give your beer intense hop flavor.
Sanitize, then re-assemble airlock, filling up to line with sanitizer.
Insert airlock into hole in stopper.
1 week later you are going to add your remaining hops and lemon as a second dry hop. Cut the lemon into small sections that fit into the fermenter but not so small that they will get stuck in your tubing when you bottle. Place the lemon pieces over a strainer and gently pour boiling water over them for about a minute to sanitize. Drop the lemon and the rest of your hops to your beer.
Keep in a dark place at room temperature for two total weeks without disturbing other than to show off to friends. (If beer is still bubbling, leave sitting until it stops.)
In the meantime, drink beer with self-closing swing tops, or ask for empties at a bar that has some. If you have a bottle capper and caps, you can save two six packs of non-twistoff beers instead.
5: Bottling (2 Weeks Later)
Once your beer's in bottles, it carbonates naturally with the help of just a little extra sugar. It wakes up your ale yeast (that went dormant during fermentation) to create just enough bubbles for some nice fizz.
Thoroughly rinse bottles with water, removing any sediment.
Mix remaining sanitizer with water.
Fill each bottle with a little sanitizer and shake. Empty after two minutes, rinse with cold water and dry upside down.
Dissolve 3 tablespoons honey with 1/2 cup water. Pour into a sanitized pot. You will be siphoning your beer into the same pot in the next steps.
Carbonation comes from adding sugar when bottling, so if you filled your jug with less than the full gallon in the last step, use less honey when bottling. Using the full amount can result in your beer being over-carbonated.
Siphoning (It all happens pretty fast. You may want to practice on a pot of water a few times.) To see it in action first, watch the How to Bottle video at brooklynbrewshop.com/instructions.
A. Attach open tubing clamp to tubing.
B. Fill tubing with sanitizer.
C. Attach sanitized tubing to the short curved end of your sanitized racking cane. Attach the black tip to the other end - it will help prevent sediment from getting sucked up. It will probably be a snug fit, but you can get it on there.
D. Pinch tubing clamp closed.
E. Remove screw-cap stopper and place racking cane into jug, just above the sediment at the bottom (“trub”).
F. Lower end of tubing not connected to racking cane into sink. Suction will force beer up and through the racking cane and tubing. Open tubing clamp, let sanitizer flow into sink until beer just starts to flow out of the tubing, then clamp shut. Open clamp on tubing, allowing beer to flow into pot with sugar solution. Tilt jug when beer level is getting low, but be careful in not sucking up the trub.
Siphon beer from pot into bottles, pinching tube clamp to stop flow after each bottle.
Close bottles.
Store in a dark place for 2 weeks.
6: Enjoy (Two Weeks Later)
You did it! You made beer.
Put beers in the fridge the night before you drink them.
Drink. Share with friends if you’re the sharing type. |

| Notes: Brewed this one at Craigs (7/13), used magnum for bittering. Ended up getting better efficiency than usual so only used about 5% sugar and OG was 1.088 also get about 85-90 gallons instead of the 66 we were shooting for. Pitched some wlp007 in ten 10gal since we didn't have enough yeast. Might use it to blend if necessary. Mash temp was also lower than expected, around 147/148 so next time it should probably be a bit higher especially because the barrel will dry it out. The lack of the original amount of sugar should help though. Yeast pitch ended up being a bit lower than expected, about 250ml of slurry instead of 300ml. Also ended up pitching warm. My personal brew I cooled it down but ended up doing it too much and it went to 58F. I heated it up to 66F by midnight and it was sitting there on the morning of 7/14. Not much activity so far. By evening it had started and was at about 68F, cooled it down to 65F. 7/15 had heated up to 70F overnight so I cooled it down to 67F. Evening it had cooled to about 65F so I heated it back to 67F. 7/16 it had chilled down to 66F so I heated it to 67F. By evening it was 70F. Turned the heater on in the evening and by morning of 7/17 it was up to 75F. Kegged on 8/20/14. Barreled this beer on 3/21/15 with a gravity of 1.012. Topped it off on 5/17/15 and took a reading which put it at 1.009. Racked out of the barrel and into kegs on 6/14/15 and the gravity was 1.006. Beer obviously kept fermenting in the barrel. Beer turned out to be about 11% and has quite a lot of bourbon alcohol character. |

Notes: BW#2
Based on the original recipe this time I want to achieve the following:
*No DMS this time, not sure how to do this but more attention to the heating of the wort in the boiler and CO2 blanketing
*Dry hop to hell! 100g in 4.5lts worked a treat so I would like to dry hop this one with 300g of Cascade.
*No stuck mash, not sure if this is entirely possible but I have added rice hulls to this recipe to ensure that I get a better runoff
*No addition of Maltodextrin at the end of fermentation. This time I shall ensure that the lactobacillus culture is active and lively before pitching with the US05
*I shall be adding a good 1-2lt pitch of my house culture of lactics and wild yeast cultured from some grain suspended in a demijohn of wort. This has been drained and fed a couple of times and I am pretty sure I also added some dregs from a lambic bottle too.
*Increase head retention: Add enough 80% Lactic Acid in the wort prior to heat/boil/fermentation to reduce the pH down to 4.4 apparently this will inhibit the lactics breaking down the large proteins I need for head retention. We shall see.
Mash Schedule:
*Dough in 11lts of liquor at 62°C(?) to start the mash at 52°C
*Leave for 10 minutes
*Remove approximately 30% of the mash and put in a large saucepan
*Add 30g of Fuggle hops
*Heat to 60°C and hold for 1-2 minutes
*Bring to a boil and leave for 20 minutes
*Return the boiled decoction to the main mash and stir
*Mash temp should now be 63°C
*Leave for 45 minutes
*Fly sparge with near boiling water (95°C)to collect 26lts in the boiler
*Adjust wort pH in the boiler using 80% Lactic Acid, before heating, to a pH of 4.4
*Heat until bubbles appear
*Chill to 20°C
*Pitch yeast and house culture
Extra Cultures Being Added:
*Vicaris - Triple/Geuze
*Odell - 5 Barrel Pale Ale
*Siren Craft Brewery - Gouttière Saison
*Wild Beer - Solera Aged Beer
Well I've done it, I placed 2nd in the London & SE Home Brew Competition in April 2015
See the link for the website, I knew this was a great beer, it was balanced and hoppy, but every time I opened a bottle I just thought 'wow Ive done it'
Much thanks goes to Michale Tonsmeire. Cheers! |

Bronze Medal, the Brew Hut Docktoberfest competition, September 2016
For 2017, slightly modified grain bill (reversed proportion of Munich to Pilsner malts, added an ounce of Caramunich, deleted acidulated malt), upped IBUs to 25. Won Gold Medal at the Brew Hut's annual Oktoberfest competition. That's me with the medal and the booty box in the upper left photo.... Won gold at Rocky Mountain Homebrew Challenge.
For 2018: Modify as follows: Reduce IBUs to 23. Replace Tettnanger with Hallertau. Add some Carapils for head retention. Try mods on a 2.5 gallon batch.
I am not happy with the 2018 mods, particularly the melanoidin. Will keep the Carapils, lose the Crystal Malt and make a 3-gallon batch for Docktoberfest. |
