Notes

Brewer's notes: This beer may also be dry hopped post fermentation with 1/2

.
It's bigger than most American Ambers but has complex malt character with supporting hops.

Toast rolled oats in 325ºF/163ºC oven for approximately 1 hour. Some notes in thread about leaving them in a bag to cool down overnight, but some that skipped the cooling step in main forum thread.
Other threads suggest it's required: https://www.reddit.com/r/Homebrewing/comments/1s6qdi/can_i_get_help_converting_my_oatmeal_stout_recipe/

After starting fermentation, make up spice and raisin tincture. Split and scrap the vanilla bean and put all of it into the bourbon. Let soak for at least a week. Filter with coffee filter and pour into bottling bucket or keg.

Add tincture to taste. Some report that 4-5 oz is enough, others say not enough.

Added raisins to the tincture for more of a raisin kick. Cut raisins coarsely and add to bourbon with spices.

Substituted the inverted turbinado sugar for Belgian Candi Syrup D45 according to a comment that inverting didn't make a difference and someone else saying they made this sub. I think the point here is "brown" sugar that isn't molasses.

Yeast recommended WLP002, but WY1968, A09 Pub, Safale S-04, and Danstar Nottingham are all decent subs.

Don't usually pay attention to water

Notes: Will use slurry from previously harvested yeast.
Primary fermentation will be 10 days.
Secondary fermentation will be for 14 days.
Brown sugar syrup will be added on day three of primary fermentation.
Cold crash for 3 days then add gelatin and cold crash an additional 3 days.
I usually do ten bottles immediately after primary fermentation and keg the remaining 5 gallons after secondary fermentation.

Notes: 2017 version had all kinds of malts in there: c20, c120, brown, chocolate, black barley (pic)
2018 I'm simplifying and just using brown, c120 and black barley
- expect terrible efficiency in the 55% range. There's just so much grain to mash. Maybe try leaving it overnight next time for some extra grav points and better fermentability.
- Last time was 10kg of base malt for 24L. Mashed 1hr and got 1.078 pre-boil.
- added 500g sugar to get us up over 1.085; shooting for around 9% ABV
- Experimenting with adding 1/2 Bourbon-soaked oak spiral (and some of the oaked bourbon) to the keg.
- bumped up the black barley (+100g) as this one (2018) is a bit light once it clears.

Notes: Can sub honey for the cane sugar if you want a touch of honey character to complement the malt flavors.

French Strisselspalt hops for the late addition would be good as well.

Lots of possible yeast choices for Biere de Garde: Can use a cool-fermented hybrid strain like Kölsch or Alt (German Ale), a Belgian Ale strain fermented on the cool side (don’t want too high esters and phenolics, but some), such as WLP 515 or WLP 570/Wyeast 1388, a farmhouse strain like Wyeast 3726, or Wyeast 3725-PC (Biere de Garde), WLP 072 (French Ale) or WLP 073 (Artisinal Country Ale) would be ideal... if you can find any of them. Additionally, can use a lager strain fermented on the warm side.

Lager for 1-6 months, if you can wait that long!

Notes: Batch #1- 26/5/19 - Eff. 54% - Vol. 21L
Finger lime IPA, based on a Session IPA (4.6%) but upped ABV to around 5%

Substitutes;
- Gladfield Light Crystal for Caramalt
- Didn't get Mand. Bav. hops, Magnum was sent instead.

5/6/19 - SG: 1013, dry hopped.
9/6/19 - Added 120g of frozen/thawed finger lime pearls, looks very juicy and cloudy, SG: 1013.
12/6/19 - Cold crashed.
16/6/19 - Kegged, added 120g of frozen/thawed finger lime pearls. Tasting slightly of lime and very clean.
17/6/19 - Force carbed at 30psi for 2min 45 sec, pretty full keg with limited head space.
2/6/19 - Tastes of bitter lime, especially on the back, not too strong but next time I'll use more in season finger limes for a sweeter finish. This is quite well received and should do again.
