Notes: Splitting this batch into two 10L vessels. One will be using the new Lallemand philly sour yeast, the other will be a mix of B.Brux and wild captures.
I plan on comparing the 2 batches and potentially blending if it seems appropriate.
Wort will be adjusted to pH 4.5 before yeast pitch. |

- boil 45min, add yeast nutrient
-
________________________
- 12oz of marshmallow at flameout (in place of corn sugar)
- 11lbs blackberry puree added at packaging
**Add fruit late into fermentation so that it will stay and yeast don't eat it
**Used Lactic Acid to reduce pH to ideal conditions for Helveticus and then kettle soured using Helveticus Wild Pitch from Lallemand for as long as my patience would allow during the work week. I then used phosphoric acid to bring down the pH a tad more to the final pH at 3.2. Then went to boil.
- Made a purée of approximately 6KG (for 5gal) of frozen fruit (Raspberries, cherries and blueberries) and added at Day 13.
- Added a syrup composed of cinnamon sticks, brown sugar and vanilla on Day 14 along with potassium sorbate and Sulfur to kill the yeast so it won’t ferment the sugar.

Notes: Essentially mixing our Andromeda Pale and Golden Nips recipes together. This should ramp up the malt profile from Andromeda. Adding Warrior should help ramp up bitterness while keeping it clean. Leaving Galaxy out of the boil should avoid any filth nutsack flavours. We've also added salts to help crisp up and accentuate the bitterness. |

Notes: Mash assumes the following:
1.1 L /kg grain absorbtion (3.795L)
3L trub loss
4L boil off
15L ferm full
= 25.8L strike water
Assuming 0.75 L/kg volume occupied by grain, total mash volume
25.8 + 2.59 = ~28.4 L |
