Notes: The qualities which constitute good porter in the present day are perfect transparency, a light brown color, fullness on the palate, pure and moderate bitterness, with a mixture of sweetness, a certain sharpness or acerbity without sourness or burnt flavour, and a close creamy head instantly closing in when blown aside.

Kegged 25th March 2016. Bottled to 1.8 volumes c02. Tasting lovely.

♦ SESSION NOTES: Recipes from Zymurgy Jan/Feb 2017. Bronze medal 2016 winner. I guess this did come out better than I thought. I just wasn't a fan of the yeast. I did have a pint out at Stereo Brewery and now I understand the flavor.

♦ Supporting Documents:

♦ Yeast Starter
3 cups boiling water. Add 1 cup DME to boiling water for 10 minutes. Sanitize everything and pour in Pyrex. Transfer to ice bath and cool to room temp 70°. FG: 1.040 Stir plate 24-48 hours or Swirl occasionally.

♦White Labs: Each vial of White Labs liquid yeast is designed to be used directly in 5 gallons 75-150 billion cells. One vial will usually start fermentation in 5 gallons in 5-15 hours at 70°F. One vial can be added directly to a 2 liter starter, which in 2 days will grow to approximately 240 billion cells

♦ STANDARD BREWING NOTES: BIAB
♫Create 8.5 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
•Fitter Hoppier AG - American 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: Recipe adapted from Jen Talley, given during a podcast (Brewstrong, I think?).

Use two packs dry yeast, rehydrated. If not Mangrove Jack’s M84, can use Saflager 34/70, or WLP830 or Wyeast 2124 liquid yeast.. All are the same Weihenstephan strain, as far as I know.

Notes: Beautiful, crisp red hue. Biscuity,nutty and bold malt character. Strong ale.

Don't be shocked by lack of early-boil hops. Larger quantities in the last 10 mins of boil will leave oxidation products of hop oils and plenty of IBU's. Pungent Floral and Spice flavors created from this to compliment malts.

Additional fining's optional, used for English pub-style beer. Will create that star-bright clear red hue with fast sedimentation of yeast.
