Imprint Beer Co.’s Black Forest Cake Stout clone
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.100 FG = 1.028
IBU = 65 SRM = 69 ABV = 9.6%
Ingredients
15.5 lbs. (7 kg) American 2-row pale malt
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Munich malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) Carafoam® malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British chocolate malt (350 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British crystal malt (65 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) roasted barley
12 oz. (0.34 kg) Carafa® Special III
3 lb. (1.4 kg) Vintner’s Harvest sweet cherry puree
16 AAU Magnum hops (90 min.) (1 oz./28 g at 16% alpha acids)
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Cholaca liquid cacao (original flavor) or 12 oz. (0.34 kg) toasted Ecuadorian cacao nibs
5 Madagascar vanilla beans
Wyeast 1968 (London ESB) or White Labs WLP002 (English Ale) or Lallemand London ESB English-Style Ale yeast
2⁄3 cup corn sugar (if priming)
Step by step
Several days before brewday, scrape open and cut the 5 vanilla beans into 1-inch (2.5-cm) segments and soak in vodka or Bourbon until ready to add to the secondary.
Mill the grains and mix with 6.8 gallons (25.7 L) of 167 °F (75 °C) strike water to reach a mash temperature of 155 °F (68 °C). Hold this temperature for 60 minutes. If you have soft water, you may want to hold off on adding the roasted grains and British crystal malts until the final 15 minutes of the mash. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear. Sparge the grains with enough water to obtain 7 gallons (26.5 L) of wort. At this point, you may want to test the wort’s gravity. The goal should be to have 7 gallons (26.5 L) of 1.072 SG wort at the start of the boil. You can add dried malt extract (DME) at this point if the SG is low or you may want to wait until the beer is in the fermenter. If you wait to add the DME, be sure to add it after fermentation begins to calm down.
Boil the wort for 90 minutes or more, adding hops according to the ingredient list. After the boil, turn off heat and chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). Aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air and pitch yeast. There should be 5 gallons (19 L) of cooled wort in the fermenter. Be sure to have room in your fermenter for the cherry puree.
Ferment at 66 °F (19 °C) for 10 days (adding the fruit puree on day 6), then raise the temperature to 70 °F (21 °C) for 3–4 days. Carefully rack into a secondary vessel containing Cholaca/cacao nibs and vanilla extract, and age to desired taste. Crash the beer to 35 °F (2 °C) for 48 hours. Bottle or keg the beer and carbonate to approximately 2.25 volumes. |

Acidulated malt to adjust mash pH to 5.2 Mash the grains at 151°F (66°C) for 25 minutes. Vorlauf for 15 minutes then run off into the kettle. Sparge the grains and top up as necessary to get 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort, or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil 60 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule. Whirlpool for 45 minutes, adding first whirlpool addition at the start and the next after 20 minutes. After the boil, chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 64°F (18°C). Aerate the wort and pitch the yeast (ensure a healthy pitch of the correct amount yeast). Ferment at 65°F (18°C). Add dry hops according to the schedule. Crash and remove dry hops on Day 11.
BREWER’S NOTES
Add acidulated malt to adjust the mash pH to 5.2 (1 percent of acidulated to malt per 0.1 of pH reduction needed). We target a 5:1 chloride-to-sulfate ratio in our mash and shoot for about 155 ppm of chloride. We also find we like our beers with a firmer bittering charge than is often seen. |

Notes: Honey is orange blossom honey and is added at end of primary directly to fermenter.
1/2 minerals added at mash the other half added during the boil after sparging.
Ferment at 66 then let naturally rise into mid to high 70's to finish. Add honey/fruit after the malt has mostly finished fermenting. Keep honey ferment cool then let free rise after a few days. Add oak once most of ferment is done before racking for 5 days.
Total water needed is 9 gallons. Mash strike temp is 4 gallons at 168. Sparge at 170 with the other 4 gallons Use Herms to keep mash range at 156 for 60 minutes
yeast accentuates plumy fruit flavors.

Notes: Won 1st place in the combined Light Lagers & Pilsners category at the 2010 Granite City homebrew contest. Results may be found at the link, below.
https://www.facebook.com/notes/granite-city-food-brewery/gcfb-homebrew-contest-winners-congratulations/107914039254067
Collect 13.5 gal at 160F, to hit 13.75 gal at boiling (0.98/0.96 = 0.98 density ratio at 160 F vs 212 F). Boil down to 12.25 gallons.
Fill Levels
Start : 13.5 gal = 3.25"
(13.75 gal = 2.95")
Finish : 12.25 gal = 4.6"
Pre-boil OG should be around 1.044 for a 76% extraction efficiency.
Start Vol = 13.25 (68F)
Stop Vol = 11.75 (68F)
Ratio = 1.13
Gravity= 44 * 1.13 = 49
Boil from 13.75 down to 12.25 gallons. It will shrink to 11.75 gal. Leaving behind 0.5 gal in the Whirlpool & 0.25 gal in the CFC will give 11 gallons total (5.5 gallons into each fermentor).
Pitch 775 Billion cells (for 11 gallons)
~800 mL of slurry (1B cell/mL, 50% yeast)
~200 gm of propagated yeast slurry
~409 gm of harvested yeast slurry (2B cells/gm)
-Try to measure out 300 gm of slurry per fermentor (600 total), assuming a 50% factor of safety. |
