NOTES / PROCESS
Add 500mg potassium metabisulphite to 20 gallons water to remove chlorine / chloramine (if required).
Water treated with brewing salts to our Balanced flavour profile: Ca=50, Mg=10, Na=16, Cl=70, SO4=70. (Hit minimums on Ca and Mg, keep the Cl:SO4 ratio low and equal. Do not favour flavour / maltiness or bitterness / dryness. For balanced beers.). For more information on how to adjust your water, refer to our step by step Water Adjustment guide.
1.5 qt/lb mash thickness.
Electric Brewery Heating Element Assembly
BUY NOWSingle infusion mash at 149F for 120-180 mins. (A very long low temperature mash helps dry out the beer).
Raise to 168F mashout temperature and hold for 10 mins.
~90 min fly sparge with ~5.6-5.8 pH water (measured at mash temperature). Collect 14.9 gallons.
Boil for 90 minutes, adding Whirlfloc and hops per schedule. Lid on at flameout, start chilling immediately.
Cool the wort quickly to 68F if making the Blonde Ale or 50F if making the Premium Lager (we use a one-pass convoluted counterflow chiller to quickly lock in hop flavour and aroma) and transfer to fermenter.
Aerate or oxygenate the chilled wort to a level of 8-10 ppm dissolved oxygen if making the Blonde Ale or 14 ppm if making the Premium Lager. For more information refer to our Aerating / Oxygenating Wort guide.
Pitch yeast and ferment at 68F if making the Blonde Ale or 50F if making the Premium Lager (wort temperature). We use modified stainless fermenting buckets in wine fridges.
Ferment until approximately 5 points from final gravity and then raise the temperature to 70-72F until finished. In our case we simply turn off the fermenting fridges and allow the beer to naturally rise to room temperature. Assume fermentation is done if the gravity does not change over ~3 days.
Rack to a brite tank (we use 5 gallon glass carboys) that has been purged with CO2 to avoid oxygen pickup, add 1 tsp of unflavoured gelatin dissolved in a cup of hot distilled water per 5 gallons of beer, and allow to clear for 2-3 days.
Package as you would normally. We rack to kegs that have first been purged with CO2 and then chill to near freezing while carbonating at the same time in a 6-keg conditioning fridge. After ~1-2 weeks at serving pressure the kegs will be carbonated and ready to serve. In a hurry? Feel free to raise the CO2 pressure temporarily to 30-40 PSI to carbonate fast over a 24 period, and then turn back down to serving pressure.
Carbonate this beer to around 2.5 volumes of CO2.
The Blonde Ale will improve greatly if conditioned just above freezing for 4 weeks before serving (6-8 weeks is recommended for the Premium Lager). Avoid keeping the beer unrefrigerated for extended periods. It will remain clean and crisp for months if kept near freezing. |

Notes: Instructions for batch sparge:
Add as much sparge water at 170F as possible to mash tun, stir for 5 minutes! then cover, let settle for 5 and begin to vorlauf, pouring first quart or so back over grain bed. Trickle left over sparge water over grain bed. Take hydrometer reading of unboiled, mixed wort when you start to boil - take temp, not approx. volume. This is to determine brewhouse efficiency later.
Recipe Notes:
With these hops 1lb or more Rye can be added to complement citrus notes. Also can substitute biscuit/victory malt or more munich malt for more bready malt flavor without added sweetness. Wheat is added to bring light but unique flavor and add body and head. Crystal malt could be substituted or added with any of these if darker color and added sweetness is desired.
First wort hopping is done by adding boil hops directly to boil keg as mash is being sparged. They extract flavor and smooth boil bitterness during this process and as the wort is being brought to boil. All other hops should be added to large mesh bag.
Add irish moss at 45'.
Pitching instructions: prepare yeast when wort has been chilled to around 80F.
S-04 rehydration instructions @ http://www.fermentis.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SFA_S04.pdf
Draw off 1 pt wort at 86F-74F in sanitized container, sprinkle yeast from packet, stir for 30' while chilling rest of wort temp to 70-65F. Then rack to carboy, add rehydrated yeast and wort back to carboy.
I aerated the carboy as the wort was racking from the boil keg and thought this was very effective.
Fermentation instructions: I started fermentation in low 60's or high 50's. The fermentation began around 8-12 hrs later and ramped the temp naturally to around 65F for the first 24-30 hrs, then it rose gradually to 68F or higher. After the activity peaks around 68F, I let off the blow-off and used the heat stick to keep ambient temp high at 65-68F. This yeast is best started low, then ramped up gradually to 68F. It being English, needs the higher final temperature to clean up off-flavors for about a week+. After that continue to age in primary for another week-2 weeks.
Dry-hop:
After a few weeks in primary, rack to secondary and bring temperature up to around 70 in order to extract hop flavor. Determine dry-hopping rates after tasting racked beer. Dry hop once for 5 days, and add second dry hop if needed. Then remove hops and bring beer to coldest possible temp for several days - then bottle.
