Add Champagne yeast if fails to attenuate enough

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: Dark blackish brown and syrupy. Madeira, rum raisins, port, black cherries, hints of treacle and cocoa. Pipe tobacco and a walnut tannic drying character. A deep and rich drying finish that lingers for ages. Words do not do this beer justice... |

Notes: The hot wort is poured over the blackberries in an open fermenter, then 2.5 gallons of pre-boiled, cooled water is added. The blackberries are held in a coarse mesh bag designed for making wines. While not absolutely necessary, it does help keep down the mess. As always, the wort is vigorously aerated and a starter culture of good ale yeast is pitched.

| Notes: Mash start ended up being about 151F. I added half the dark grains at the beginning of the mash and half 30min in to avoid extracting tannins. Forgot to test the temp before I mashed out but the grain bed was at about 147. The mash out of about 2.75 gallons brought it up to about 167F. Added and extra half gallon to the sparge to make up for liquid loss. |
