Notes: 2.5 gallons of bottled spring water into sanitized fermenter. added 10lbs Kirkland Clover Honey and topped off water to ~ 3.75 gallons or Original gravity of 1.100. rehydrated 2 packets of lalvin ec-1118 with 95* bottled water. Pitched yeast along with 1 tsp of DAP and 1/2 tsp of fermaid K. temp initially 78* but cooled indoors to 70* and began fermentation within 8 hours. fermenter transferred to garage where temp dropped to 65*.
fermaid K additions
at pitch: 1/2tsp
24hrs: 1/2tsp
48hrs:1/2tsp
@ ~1.055:1/2tsp
Degassed twice a day for the first 3 days
stalled fermentation after 9 days at 1.060 for a few days. ferm temp dropped to 60* and pH was 2.9. added 2.5 grams of potassium carbonate, 1/2 tsp DAP, raised temp to 66* and re pitched. New pH 3.5 and fermentation has restarted. stppped fermentation with campden tabs and potassium sorabate at 1.010.
12/9/2018- back sweetened with 12 oz by weight of clover honey which made the final gravity 1.012. this gravity reading leads me to believe thatmy last gravtiy reading was wrong or fermentation is still going slowly somehow. will check gravity again in a month or so to determine is it is still fermenting. strong cardamom flavor and aroma needs age and more sweetnes

Notes: BREW NOTES
First brewed 30/08/2015. Want to try push mash temp up and see whether improves mash efficiency.

MASH NOTES.
Only getting around 60-63% efficiency. Have tried all manner of things to bump up. Looked through old notes and remembered that even with a pre Tun heat up, I still need an extra 2 deg C on top of brewers friend calcs. Last 3 brews all around 64-65 deg C mash temp on purpose.(wanted drier beers then but efficiency suffered) This time have bumped up mash temp extra 2 deg aiming for 67-68 deg C over 90 mins. Extra 2 deg C last thing to test before changing to smaller esky cooler Tun.
Ambient temp 18 deg C (end of winter) 30/08/2015
I have tun insulated with cardboard and wrapped in blanket.
Single Infusion.
Grain temp 13 deg C
2.5 L/1kg grain
Strike (brewers Friend) 21L @ 77deg C.
Actual Strike 79.5 Deg C. Adjust for your equipment.
After 30 mins sitting on 67-68 Deg C. Stirred
After 60 mins sitting on 66 Deg C. Added 2L boiling water. No noticeable temp changed.
After 90 mins finished at
Mash Out
Raised temp to 68-69 deg C stir and mash for 10 more minutes = 4 liters @ boiling (adjust for your equipment)
Took first running's and Re-circ'd added
12 litres @ boiling to reach 77 deg C sacc
Lauter to desired wort volume (if needed)
34 L in brew pot (adjust for your equipment) this is a 25L batch. See above.
Pre Boil OG 10.30

BOIL NOTES
See hop schedule above. Adjust AA for IBU's in your area.
90 min boil
Whirl-flock 10 min to go
Add Immersion chiller 10 min to go
Cool to desired ferm temp
Whirlpool

FERM NOTES
Nottingham yeast (Danstar) re-hydration 1.064 slightly high for 1 packet. I re-hydrated only.
Original Gravity 1.076 way higher but 22L
Final Gravity
ABV %

After BREW Notes
Mash temp rise to 68deg C haven't worked. Hit 1.076 but 22L. This is 63% which is my standard efficiency. I added 2L of fresh water to bring it down to 1.070 may add another 1L to make 1.067. Brewer's Friend calcs at 63% efficiency. Had my usual 34 liter to start boil. Left a bit more in pot so not as much trube went in, but still 6L off. Not sure why the extra boil off today.
The extra 2L of water isn't something I like to do, but ABV would be too high for 1 packet of dry yeast. Extra water will bring with some oxygen to aid yeast. Should it attenuate as per all my other brews 80%+ 1.010 i'll end up with an imperial-ish 7.8% 1.012 finish 7.6% down side is I wanted a hoppy plain-ish IPA lucky the extra IBU's are in it as it will still be a balanced beer with a 1.012+ finish.

FG 1.016 added extra water.ABV 6.69%

Notes: Amount of spice decreased from 5g to 3g as there was a bitterness from the orange that was too obvious. Might consider increasing again if the bitterness mellows with bottle conditioning.

White Labs note that the beer might be sweet with this yeast and a different yeast can be pitched after 75% fermentation. My experience differs however, the last batch had an apparent attenuation of 86%.

Notes: Make 1L yeast starter at least 48 hrs prior to brew day.

Taste: Not a lot of maltyness, slight bitterness, not too much of a fan of the hop flavors.

Color: Color is perfect for a blonde ale - not a lot of sediment

Smell: Nise crisp smell with a slight florally aroma.

Things to Change: Change base malt from Golden Promise to Maris Otter. Try switching the order of the hops, or switching altogether.

Notes: Cosmic Trident is a three-pronged approach to a delicious beer. Moderate bitterness from timeless Cascade is bolstered with copious additions of Trident™ hops. Meticulously paired with a revolutionary Omega Yeast strain, the amplification of aromatic and flavorful thiols creates a sipping experience that would excite Poseidon himself.

The result is an incredibly fruit-forward ale ranging from bright tart citrus to a kaleidoscope of tropical fruit flavors and aromas. The malt foundation of classic American 2-row creates a perfect temple for the hops and yeast to yield a flavor monster that only Odysseus could defeat.

Primary Fermentation - 2 weeks (Dry Hop on Day2)
Secondary Fermentation - 2 weeks (Dry Hop on Day 15)
