Notes: SINGLE DECOCTION MASHING INSTRUCTIONS

Use 4G stainless kettle for sparge heating
Use smaller nonstick kettle for decoction

1) Mash-in to hit 140F and rest 5min

2) Remove 1qt of thick mash per pound of grist (approx 1/3 of wet grain volume)
14lbs of grain, means remove 14qts (3.5g) of mash
Cover main mash

3) Heat decoction while main mash rests
Heat to 155F and rest 5min
Bring to boil while stirring constantly (takes prob 10min)
Boil while stirring for 5min

4) Return decoction to main mash until it hits 156F (scoop & stir) for 20min.
If needed, allow remaining decoction to cool separately, and add periodically to maintain the main mash temp

5) Mash out at 170.6F

***
Ferment at 10C (50F) until hitting FG (watch the TILT !)
Pressure transfer to keg and lager in keezer ON CO2 for 4 weeks.

ABV 5%, IBU 18
Malt = Munich I, Pilsner, other dark specialty malts
Hops = Perle

HeadBrewer says:
Without giving out too much info, here are some basics on Dunkel...
85% Munich malt 5% Pils – the other 10% are several higher color malts.
13P OG (1.053)
18 IBU, one addition at boil begin of German Perle

Single decoction
Ferment at 10C (50F)
Total fermentation and lager time – 5 weeks

German Lager yeast – we don’t use this strain, but I would recommend 34/70. I don’t know what Wyeast or White labs call it, but they will recognize the number and have it in their bank under another name.

Pitch 15-20MM cells/mL – that means if you brew 5 gallons, you should pitch about 1 gallon of yeast starter. I would aggressively aerate the starter, let it fully ferment at room temp, cool it down to 10C/50F, let it floc out. On brew day, decant the beer supernatant off the yeast and add about 12 oz of sterile wort, pitch into your batch at high kraeusen. (starter yeast supernatant has been aerated and may cause off flavor since you are pitching so much into the new batch of wort) The yeast starter should not be warmer than the chilled wort or you will shock the yeast. Because you need a lot of yeast to pitch cold, dry yeast is not a bad option. Pitch more dry yeast packets than you would with an ale. Too little yeast is a bigger problem than too much. You could also add the dry yeast to a small amount of wort on brew day and pitch at high kraeusen.

Recipe modified for my efficiency and equipment. West Yorkshire yeast instead of WLP002.

https://byo.com/recipe/british-dark-mild-ale/

Dark Mild Ale
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.036 (8.9 °P) FG = 1.011 (2.8 °P)
IBU = 17 SRM = 22 ABV = 3.2%

Ingredients
6.25 lb. (2.83 kg) Crisp British pale ale malt or similar (3 °L)
5 oz. (142 g) crystal malt (60 °L)
5 oz. (142 g) crystal malt (120 °L)
4 oz. (113 g) black patent malt (525 °L)
4 oz. (113 g) pale chocolate malt (200 °L)
3.5 AAU East Kent Goldings hops (60 min.)(0.7 oz./20 g at 5% alpha acids)
White Labs WLP002 (English Ale), Wyeast 1968 (London ESB Ale) or Fermentis Safale S-04 yeast

Step by Step
Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 154 °F (68 °C). Hold the mash at 154 °F (68 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 5.9 gallons (22.3 L) and the gravity is 1.030 (7.6 °P).

Once the wort is boiling, add the bittering hops. The total wort boil time is 1 hour after adding the bittering hops. During that time add the Irish moss or other kettle finings with 15 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort to 67 °F (19 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is 6 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast or 1 package of liquid yeast.

Ferment around 67 °F (19 °C) until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in a week or less. Allow the lees to settle and the brew to mature without pressure for another two days after fermentation appears finished. Rack to a keg and force carbonate or rack to a bottling bucket, add priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 1 to 2 volumes depending on your packaging. Serve at 50 to 55 °F (10 to 13 °C).

Notes: Brewed on 4/1/17.

Was running out of time so the "whirlpool" was really just adding them all at flameout and keeping them in the keggle (in hop spider) while chilling. Probably had about 15 minutes of contact time in total from temp of 210 down to 190 or so in the keggle itself.

Chinook at bittering was really 10ml of Hopshot - said to give 10 IBU's per ml (?).....actually is a combo of various hop oils/resin (ie cascade, chinook, centennial, etc...).

4/6 - added 6oz dry hop (2 Citra, 2 Simcoe, 2 El Dorado)

4/9 - gravity at 1.016...mostly done...moved to keg (removed dry hops)
