| Notes: Brewed 1/5/15. Strike water was 167F and it brought it to 152F. I cooled it down to 148 by recirculating 2gal and stirring. PH was 5.1 which was lower than expected. Probably shouldn't have put as much acid malt in there. Sparged to about 9 and maybe a pint, decided to let it be a bit short due to a thick yeast slurry. Also, the spareg water ran out so maybe a bit more next time. Brix of runnings never dropped below 3. Runnings into the kettle were 10.43 which puts it at about 90% efficiency. Probably due to the excess sparging. Had a very vigorous boil which I kicked up in the last 20min. I collected about 5.5ish gal. The efficiency was up this time maybe due to the corn sugar. Brew is sitting at 68F. After a couple hours it had cooled down to 66F. I decided to heat it up a little but accidentally got it up to 70/71F for probably an hour. I cooled it back down to 66-68F. It was probably warm for about an hour, however, yeast activity had already started. 1/6/15 morning it had crept to 68F and I cooled it down to 66F. By evening time it had heated up to 68F so I cooled it down to about 65F. By morning it was sitting at 66F and by evening it had risen up to about 68F. 1/8 morning it was sitting at 68F still, I put it on a heater and by evening it was about 70/72F. 1/9 I raised it up more degrees in the morning to 72F (hard to tell with the therm stickers where is specifically is as they are messed up a bit). 1/10 I heated it up in the morning to 74F. 1/11 heated it up to 75/76F. 1/12 and 1/13 I heated it up a bit more and it's not sitting at 78F. It appears that it is still fermenting a little bit. Gravity reading on 1/18 put it at about 1.006 or 1.008, hard to tell. Fermentation might have kicked back up in the evening but I am considering whether to pitch the french saison. 1/19 decided to take gravity reading and chill it down to 60F which pit it at 1.010 (84% attenuation). Decided to cool it down a little and pitch the french saison (about 250 billion cells) at about 75F. 1/27 took a gravity reading which put it at 1.006, took it out of the swamp also. 2/1/15 biofined with 2tbs. 2/3/15 kegged half and bottled conditioned half. The bottles were carbonated to about 2.85 volumes. I wanted to do a bit less than that but I only got about 2.33gal from the keg vs the 2.5 I was expecting. Might be nice to do a bottle conditioned vs keg conditioned comparison. Bottle code BS2. |

Notes: clean as shit son
ferment lower to get fewer esters.
consider when remaking this recipe if the malt profile isn't right to do a decoction mash and try using pilsner malt instead with a 90 minute boil
maybe consider playing with water chemistry if profile still isn't right with decoction
"Traditionally, the mash regimen called a triple decoction required three decoctions and four temperature rests: an acid rest at 95° F, a protein rest at 121° to 131° F, a starch conversion at 150° to 158° F, and a mash-out rest at 165° to 168° F. Today the less time-
consuming double- and single-decoction methods are more common.
The double decoction usually starts with a temperature of 128° to 131° F that is increased to 152° to 155° F and finally 165° to 168° F by two decoctions. The single decoction requires only one decoction to raise the mash temperature either from the starting point, 128° to 131° F, to a mash-out at 152° to 155° F or from 152° to 155° F to mash-out at 165° to 168° F."
consider decoction seriously
seems under bittered, perhaps add slightly more.
target 25 IBU mark. needs to be more robust.
reduce OG /FG
also reduce amount of vienna malt, giving too much character and increase crystal 15, also use unmalted wheat next time. |

Notes: First Brewed 06/2016
Dog E is a very special beer. This beer commemorates our 9th year in 2016. This beer originally appeared as AB:04 in 2010, perhaps the most sought after beer we ever brewed. Dog E is a 16.1% Imperial Stout brewed with copious amounts of dark malts, pure cacao and coffee, balanced by the subtle addition of naga chili, and barrel-aged. Perfect for ageing in your cellar, or drinking fresh if you’re lucky enough to get your paws on a bottle. With stronger styles (like imperial stouts), feel free to cellar your beer and try a bottle every few months to see how the flavours have developed – often the beer picks up new, incredible flavours.
