Notes: Based on 'Behold a Pale Ale' and a light version of '200 meter pale ale'.

NOTE: All hops except dry hops were at least 2 months old so I increased quantities to account for this (but haven't adjusted the AA ratings of the hops).

*** 8% (6 gravity pts) extract boost due to decoction?***

Single decoction:

Dough in for protein rest x 10 min, then ramp up to 152.

After 30 min at 152, pull 1/3 thick mash (8-10 qt?), heat to boil x 30 min while stirring, then add back to mash kettle. Reset to 170F for mash out x 10 min

FWH while draining basket

*** cold sparge 0.3 gal to hit preboil volume ***

Remove boil hop bags at flame out.

Wait 10 min, then add flame out hops in a bag, steep x 20 min then rapidly chill to 60-65F.

Drain wort into FV and then attach to FTC - chill to 48F (HEPA filter in blow off stopper)

Pitch at 48F and allow to free rise to 50F. Ferment at 50F x 7 days, then raise to 55F x 3 days, then raise to 60F x 2 days. Check gravity on day 13 & and 15, and if stable, cold crash and package as per usual.

Notes: A simple not too hoppy American pale ale with organic Japanese green tea from Ayumi & Hiro's organic farm. The tea can be adjusted as you like, but what's here is just a faint hint.

Notes: I have left over grain and end of life hops on hand and want to use them up. I am told this may be very harsh and too roasty, but also that it will have a lot of espresso like flavor.

- Keep at 26ºC until FG is reached ( same FG 3 days in a row)
-> min.+2 days = min. 5 days of dry hop
- Rack to Secondary
- Lower 1.5ºC/12h until 3ºC in 7 days
- Keep it at 3ºC for another 7 days (2 weeks in secondary)
- Let it raise to roomtemp during one day

Notes: misjudged Pre-boil gravity due to high liquid volume. Actually hit about 75% efficiency as opposed to the initial 50% thought

added 1 lb Dme to make up numbers. Ended up just boosting gravity,

Increased volume to make up for high gravity

Ibu will suffer

♦ SESSION NOTES: This one always comes out really good. Did everything right.

♦ STANDARD BREWING NOTES:
♫Create 8 gallons sparge water. Bring to 154° strike temperature. Prime pump. Pump water through hose. Add tablespoon 5.2 pH balancer
♫Add 2 drops Fermcap before adding grain.
♫Add grain – Sparge at 154° for 90 minutes (Minimum 60) (One gallon loss during sparge process) Water burn rate: 1-1/2 gallon per hour.
♫Boil clean water for end of boil session adjustment. Adjust to 5.5 water line.
•Dark beers – Add x tablespoon Calcium Carbonate
•IPA beers – Add 5 tablespoon Gypsum for IPA

WAKE UP!!!!!!
15 minutes – Add immersion chiller
15 minutes - Add Whirlfloc
10 minutes – Add 1 teaspoon Yeast Nutrient last

♦ Check to see if fermentation tank nozzle is pointed upwards

♦ KEGGING NOTES:
Purge oxygen with CO2
Chill keg 24 hours before force carbonation.
Force Carbonation Calculator: 20 psi 4 days
Volumes of CO2 2.5 at 36°F = 10.2 psi American Ales

♦ The Decoction Method
All decoction mashes start with a single infusion step where hot water is added to the mash to start the mashing process. Typical temperatures for the first step vary. Multiple step decoctions are often used. Some examples of steps include:

Notes: Mash started 09:45
pH tested 10:00 = 6, tested again 10:50 maybe just over
Started raising to boil at 10:55
Drew off 14l for a half batch at 11:10
First batch reached boil at 11:25

I split this batch into two halves. One was aroma hopped with 45g Mosaic and 20g Challenger; then dry hopped with a similar amount. The other was aroma and dry hopped with similar amounts of Citra, Centennial and Chinook. Note these were in batches of 12.5 litres so the hopping rates are massively high.

The first batch - Citra, Centennial and Chinook was undrinkable and the first batch I have ever had to throw away. Just way too bitter and too overpowering a hop flavour. It was like the brewdog barley wine but even hoppier. A slightly TCP/medicinal flavour. Just too much. I think the Chinook may have tipped it over the edge.

The 2nd batch - Mosaic, Northdown and Challenger - was right at the edge but drinkable.

Also, I didn't like WLP007 very much. It seemed to stop towards the end of the fermentation and I had to restart it by adding another starter. It was very flocculent and formed a putty-like sludge that was easy to harvest though - but I didn't want to keep it.
