Notes: A rye amber ale for Steve at Barismo.
Several new techniques are being attempted with this one, even though it's not really for us. First off, we milled the rye separately and are allowing it to kind of "pre-convert" for 15 minutes, then adding the rest of the grain. and striking in as normal with a traditional protein rest schedule. The second thing we're trying is a whirlpool hop stage at flame-out.
3/1/15: Brewed this today. Went off pretty well, no real major hangups despite introducing a couple new techniques. No idea if either is going to have an appreciable influence on the finished beer, but we'll have to see. Hit our OG spot-on and it seems like it's going to ferment perfectly well. More updates soon.
3/8/15: Thiefed sample for gravity reading and tasting. Nailed the FG - 1.012, attenuation only 1pt better than anticipated. Final abv should be 4.99%. Pre-conditioning tasting notes:
Subtle, quaffable. Solid stylepiece highlighting balance almost to a flaw; mild malt breadiness, just enough hops, could use a bit more. I think our cascade being lower AA than anticipated cost us a few ibus. Drinks like a commercial amber without the nasty adjunct taste of stale corn. Would crush this on a summer's day. Going to carb heavy to add mouthfeel and hopefully make the beer more interesting.
3-22-15: Bottled into 12oz bottles. Added .75 cups corn sugar to prime. Pipetted 2mL of yeast into each bottle. Yielded exactly 48 bottles, and one bomber which will be ours. |

Notes: This is my all time favorite beer, have fun with it
whirlpool at 0 until the temp drops to 170 then chill, I used a -30 degree freezer on this one and it slowly chilled after 4 hours to 60F, ferment for 5 to 7 days then add the first dry hop to the fermenter in a bag, wait 5 to 7 days then pull into a keg and dry hop the second for another 3 to 5 days under Co2 then cold crash at 34 for 3 days and pull the beer off into a serving keg to carbonate, wait a week and you will love it!!
the picture below on the left is after using gelatin, otherwise it will not clear at all like the one on the right
just a recap on hop amounts it takes

| Notes: I had this sitting in my keg for 15 days just to meld the flavors together, I also used gelatin right when I kegged it and now after 15 days the beer is very good, you can defiantly taste the wheat flavor and the over all body is perfect with a citrus finish, the final gravity is low but the carapils makes the beer a little thicker and just the right texture, I can defiantly say this is a winner |

Notes: *Sugar: (Last 15 minutes of boil)
*Mashing (explanation of high temperature):
The reason for mashing at 158 came from doing research into the style from somewhere that I can't even recall.
It may seem high, but the reason for doing so is that Beta Amylase enzymes denature at 158. This leaves more unfermentable long chain dextrins, you will have more "weight" and more mouthfeel with the 158f mash temp but about the same starting gravity, and the final gravity will be higher as well. You get more mouthfeel this way so that when you add the table sugar to the boil, you get the gravity boost but it's not "thin and cidery" like happens with many beers when you boost with a simple sugar. With this higher temp mash there still is decent mouthfeel and even great lacing on the glass from the proteins.
*Yeast; making as starter:
Procedure:
In a medium sauce pan, add 2 pints of water and 1 cup Dried Malt Extract (DME). Mix well and boil the solution for about 10 minutes to sterilize. Cover and cool the pan to room temperature in an ice bath. This will give you a wort of approximately 1.040 OG. Keeping the Original Gravity low is important because you want to keep the yeast in its growth phase, rather than its fermentation phase. The fermentation phase will create alcohol which can be toxic to yeast in high concentrations.
Pour the wort into a sanitized glass container (flask, growler, etc.) and pitch the vial of yeast. Cover the top of the container with a sanitized piece of aluminum foil so that it is flush with the container, but will still allow CO2 to escape. Vigorously shake or swirl the container to get as much oxygen dissolved in the solution as possible. Allow the starter to sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours, occasionally shaking it to keep the solution aerated.
You probably won’t see any visible activity, but the yeast is busy taking up the oxygen and sugars in the solution and growing new cells. After the yeast has consumed all of the nutrients and oxygen, it will form a milky white layer on the bottom of the container. If you are not planning on pitching the yeast right away, you can store it in the refrigerator with the foil still in place. When you are ready to brew, decant off most of the clear liquid from the top, being careful not to disturb the yeast layer below. Once the yeast and your wort are at approximately the same (room) temperature, rouse the starter yeast into suspension and pitch the entire quantity into your fermenter.
Typical Starter Volumes for 5 gallons:
To activate the yeast: 1 pint (with ½ cup DME)
To revitalize yeast past its Best Before Date: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME)
To brew a high gravity beer: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME) |

Notes: Soak french oak spirals in bourbon for at least 2 weeks in buffalo trace bourbon, allowing the bourbon to completely submerge the spirals so that they fully soak up the bourbon.
When adding the Star Anise to the boil (10 left), crush the star into small pcs and leave in during the cool down this way it stays during the fermentation process. taste when racking to secondary, add 0.5 oz more (if needed)
pitch one vile of the WLP099 Super high Gravity Yeast starter in the Primary for 10 days. Once fermented, add in another 0.45 lb of Maple Syrup and 1oz Turbinado sugar and pitch another vile of WLP099 Super high Gravity Yeast starter to for another 10 days adding bourbon, vanilla, cacao and French oak spirals.
Rack into secondary keeping the oak spirals for 14 days before bottling, priming with maple syrup. |

34/70 seems to work well at higher temps.
Adolph Coors' recipe called for a greater addition of aromatic hops to bittering hops. Our subtle blend of Chinook, Hallertau, Herkules and Taurus hops gives Coors Banquet just the perfect hint of bitterness to offset the malty sweetness |
