Notes: Starting with six different hop varietals added to the brew kettle & culminating with a massive dry-hop addition of Simcoe hops, Bell's Hopslam Ale possesses the most complex hopping schedule in the Bell's repertoire. Selected specifically because of their aromatic qualities, these Pacific Northwest varieties contribute a pungent blend of grapefruit, stone fruit, and floral notes. A generous malt bill and a solid dollop of honey provide just enough body to keep the balance in check, resulting in a remarkably drinkable rendition of the Double India Pale Ale style.

Notes: The cider was provided by a local farm that sells unpasteurized unfiltered Russet based cider to homebrewers. This batch was 6 gallons.
1. Add 6 gallons of cider to sanitized bucket.
2. Add brown sugar to same bucket.
3. Add 1 crushed campden tablet and wait 12 hours.
4. Add 1/2 tsp per gallon of pectic enzyme and wait 12 hours.
5. Add yeast nutrient.
6. Pitch yeast (2L DME starter)
Primary until activity subsides (seven to ten days)
Secondary until clear (1 month min, to 2 months)
Gravity should be around 1.001 when complete.
Once secondary is complete, add potassium sorbate (if kegging)
to prevent re-fermentation, let it sit overnight.
Bottling is a bit trickier. Read Zymurgy's article on backsweetening cider: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/how-to-brew/how-to-backsweeten-mead-and-cider/
Add wine conditioner to taste or concentrated cider (freeze and let sit upside-down in cup then add concentrate).
Gold winner of first round NHC competition 2014, silver in 2015, dry-hopped version won gold in 2016 and gold winner in New York State Fair Homebrew Competition 2014.

Notes: Mash and sparge, bring up to a brief boil then chill to 110*
kettle sour using L. Plantarum
Maintain ambient temp of 100* in fermentation chamber for 48 hours, aiming for a pH of 3.4
60 minute boil following hop schedule
Cool and pitch 1 pack of G02
Add blackberries at 7 day and allow at least 7 more days before crashing
I generally take fresh blackberries and sanitize them briefly in Starsan. I then freeze to break down the cell walls, thaw and gently mash in a sanitized bowl before adding to beer. I highly recommend using a hop bag to keep seeds out of the beer. |

This method produces 2 separate Pale ales from one brew day. Soak 1 oz of vodka with 1 oz of hops in a mason jar for each of your 5 gallon pale ales.
The hop method maximizes hop efficiency and eliminates late boil hopping/whirlpool/hopback. Before flameout, fill each jar with boiling wort and loosely cover with lid. |

Notes: Used 15g of S04 yeast - a pack and a bit
80 degrees heated the strike water to (this was 4 degrees over the calc T based on my last recipe) - ended up with a high mash temperature around 68-69degrees at start and didn't lose much since only 25 mins. Next time will go 2 degrees only over the recommended and for such a short mash.
Ended up with around 19l of wort at target OG (1.065). High aeration achieved on decanting, pitched yeast about 20-25% full - but forgot to mix. Happily trucking on next day when checked, around 18 hours after start.
Forgot to add 1g chinook hops 10 mins before end, however given all 60g of hops were added right as the heater was turned off I expect a little bittering so shouldn't make a difference. Wort was very dark in comparison to what I expected, probably related to the time it took to boil off. May mean more caramelised flavour - will confirm when sampling! |
