Notes: Boiled 7 gal down to 5. 90 min mash gave me 72% efficiency. Recipe was supposed to have lb of chocolate malt, but couldnt find the lb I have somewhere! Compensated with more black.
Taste Notes: delicious! Roasty, and crisper than intended without the chocolate, but good. Coffee comes through with the black malt.
Breakfast in a bottle ;-)

Notes: Yeast
------------------------------------------
1. sediment from 2 longnecks, add together + 2inches of wort to bottle
24hrs @ 25c to reactivate yeast.
2. use to make 1L starter
24-36hrs @ 25c
Ferment
------------------------------------------
20c 3 days
23c 1 day (ensure full attenuation)
+2 days for acetaldehyde reabsorption
Never rack into secondary
bottle/keg after 6 days max in primary, or yeast count may drop below ideal for bottle/keg conditioning.
Priming sugar (+0.5% abv)
--------------------------
8g/bottle
10.5g/L
200g/19L keg
Coopers primes kegs with sugar.
Condition bottles or kegs at 20 °C
should be well carbonated within a week.
due to the absence of late hopping, it doesn't need time to mellow out like the hoppy pale ales often do.
However the beer will benefit from a few weeks maturation.
Alternative Mash
---------------------------
1.single infusion mash at 64–66c
2.step mash with a rest in the 60–63 °C range

Notes: Dry hop:
2oz Amarillo
2oz Simcoe
I like to split the additions in half over the 2 weeks
*Amber malt: Use Thomas Fawcett Amber Malt, don't just use any old amber malt. If you can't find Thomas Fawcett Amber, look harder. This is the exact malt DFH uses, and it's a distinctive flavor. It's available at quite a few online retailers if your LHBS doesn't carry it.
**Hopping: Mix all 5oz of hops together, how often you add them is up to you. Some people add a couple pellets every minute, others fill up 30 dixie cups, and add one cup per 3 minutes. Personally I do 10 additions, 0.5oz every 10 minutes, and it turns out excellent.
That's about it, it's actually a fairly easy beer to brew other than the continuous hoping. If you can't find WLP007, use WYeast 1098 - Dry Whitbread, or Safale S04. Definitely use WLP007 if it's available, the yeast character is dead on.
I just had a slightly tweaked version take 1st place for IIPAs in a competition. |

Should lean toward dry, quaffable. Simple grist bill. Don't over complicate the grist bill.
Pitch yeast at 64F and ferment at 66F.
Secondary when yeast have completed 85% attenuation. Add dry hops, continue secondary until attenuated, about 4-5 days in secondary total.
Keg condition 1 week.
If bottling, condition 2-3 weeks. |

Notes: On the brew date, I sanitized an 8 oz mason jar and filled with freshly brewed (strong) coffee and refrigerated it. Added coffee to keg prior to adding beer.
I used the recipe from the Heretic Shallow Grave Porter, via Morebeer. I then made the coffee addition mentioned above to increase the coffee flavor. I have brewed this once before and it came out awesome. Heretic did a great job with the recipe. The coffee addition made it even better. This is a regular recipe for me! Strongly recommended. |

Notes: From George Washington's notebook circa 1757.
This recipe has been scaled down from a full cask size to 1 gallon.
Ingredients, per Washington's recipe:
0.5lb Wheat Bran
1lb Molasses (light molasses, or Lyle's Golden Syrup)
Hops to your taste
Heat 1.50 gallons of water to 165F. Add wheat bran, and heat to boiling. At start of boil, add first hops.
Stir well to avoid bran sticking to bottom of kettle.
Add aroma hops with 10 minutes remaining.
Pour boiling contents of kettle over a strainer into a new kettle that has the molasses/golden syrup in it. Let the strainer drain for a couple of minutes, then discard the spent bran/hops.
Cool to "just above blood warm" or around 80-90F. Pitch yeast and attach blow tube or airlock.
Ferment 7-10 days, then bottle without priming (this is a still beer). There may be some residual fermentation that provides very light carbonation. You can also wait until all fermentation completes and then bottle, which takes about 14 days or so.
This beer could benefit from extended resting time to let the fluffy trub settle out - whether in the fermenter, or the bottle. It will not form a typical yeast layer on the bottom of a bottle, but rather more of a gelatin-like layer in the bottle. Be aware when pouring the beer from the bottle so globs of trub don't fall into the glass.
*****************
* Tasting Notes *
*****************
Appearance - much like a hefeweizen. Bright, cloudy yellow. Described as looking like "pineapple juice" by a few people.
Aroma - yeasty, with light fruit.
Flavor - Grapefruit and wheat. Harsher/edgier citrus "zing" when fresh, which has mellowed considerably over the course of a few weeks in the bottle. This beer has a hint of dryness, with a very forward hop presence.
***************
* Bottom line *
***************
This is an interesting piece of history from Mr. Washington. I will be bottling this a month or two before the 4th of July, to share with others.
George advises "hops to your taste" and I would take him up on it - vary the hops but watch out with the alpha...you want low alpha hops for this brew. The bitterness of the hops presents itself assertively if you are not careful with the bittering amount.
This is a very light and dry beer that showcases hops if you proportion it right, with a smooth mouthfeel and very light wheat notes.
***************************************
* Original Recipe - punctuation added *
***************************************
To make Small Beer
Take a large Sifter full of Bran[.]
Hops to your Taste. Boil these 3 hours. Then strain out 30 Gallons into a Cooler, put in 3 Gallons Molasses while the Beer is scalding hot or rather drain the molasses into the Cooler & strain the Beer on it while boiling Hot. Let this stand till it is little more than Blood warm. Then put in a quart of Yeast if the weather is very cold, cover it over with a Blanket & let it work in the Cooler 24 hours. Then put it into the Cask[.] leave the bung open till it is almost done working[.] Bottle it that day Week it was Brewed. |
