| Notes: The idea is to take a nice, summer American Wheat and give it a red color without using inappropriate crystal malts. Stay true to style with the exception of the color. A Winter crusher to sit alongside seasonal sippers, Imperial Stouts etc. |

Notes: THIS BEER TAKES NEARLY 2 MONTHS TO GET HAPPY. BREW IN LATE OCTOBER TO ENJOY FOR CHRISTMAST
STARTER TAKES ONE WEEK TO COMPLETE WITH MY EQUIPMENT
ORIGINAL RECIPE FOUND HERE:
http://www.thebrewerandthebaker.com/archives/19333
STARTER
(calc'ed using brewers friend yeast pitch rate and starter calculator)
Make about 1week before hand.
4 liter starter;
STEP 1: 13.5 oz DME light
boil 4L of water
add DME and stir to dissolve
boil 15 min
cool to 70F
sanitize yeast starter vessel and lid, funnel, scissors, yeast pack etc
pour wort into starter vessel
cover tightly and shake vigorously
add yeast
shake
loosen top so it's not air tight
shake intermittently and leave on table for 24-36 hours
cold crash 24 hrs
decant
STEP 2: use 13.5 oz DME light
boil 3.5+L of water (I'm limited to a 1 gallon starter vessel)
add DME and stir to dissolve
boil 15 min
cool to 70F
add to starter
stir/shake
leave for 24-36 hours
cold crash
decant before pitching into beer
BIAB Method:
MASH
strike temp 162F with 4.5 gallons water
Mash all loose grains for 60-90 min at 150F
Sparge wtih 2.5 gallons at 170F.
Mash and sparge water should amount to about 6.5 gal for the boil
BREWING:
1. Add Northern Brewer hops at 60.
2. Add Golding hops at 45.
3. After fermentation starts, transfer primary to chiller for 7 days at 68F.
4. Meanwhile, add vanilla beans, oak chips, and bourbon to sanitized bowl with lid and let steep in the fridge for the duration of primary fermentation.
5. On day 8, transfer to secondary and add the contents of the bourbon bowl (liquid and all) to secondary fermenter for 21 days at 68F.
6. Bottle or keg, condition for 21 days.
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX CXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Actual pre boil gravity: 1.068
Had 5 gal post boil so a little lower than expected. Moving kettle I accidentally hit the valve open and lost about 0.25 gallons. I added 0.5 gallons to top off, which would have taken the original to the 5.5 gal mark, actual was 5.25 gal.
Post boil gravity before adding water: 1.076
Post boil gravity post adding water: 1.084
Yeah I don’t get it either. Prob picking up sediment
FG 1.015. That gives this beer about 9% abv. |

Notes: This is a modern take on a Kvass (but since no BJCP style for that, and the fact that this bread has salt in it, listing it here as a Gose). Kvass would traditionally use old rye bread in the mash; I'm instead using three packages of Falu Råg-Rut Rye Crispbread (from Sweden) that is past its best-by date. Each package is 235g, so for three that would be about 705g total wt, but carbohydrates listed as about 60g per 100g serving, so 420g carbs is about 15 oz... entered in the recipe above as raw rye (for lack of better substitute). Planned recipe like that, but actually got much better efficiency (would’ve been 92%!) with those numbers, so by making it 25 oz - or approx full weight of bread, it calculates out to a more normal 80% efficiency... but also made it more of an Imperial Kvass or Gose!). Also, says 1.2g salt per 100g serving, so entered that in the water chem section as 8.4 g NaCl.
Add bread to entire mash volume of boiling water to cover (to gelatinize starches), mix up to break it down, and let it sit until it drops to mash strike temp, then add milled grain to hit mash temp. Then mash (no sparge) and boil normally from there. Use rice hulls if normal lauter... was very viscous! I BIAB, so normally don’t use rice hulls, but had an absorption rate of 0.15 gal/lb, vs my normal rate of 0.06-0.075.
It would traditionally be spontaneously fermented, and get just a slight sourness... so I'm using Philly Sour Lachancea (ferments and sours), and adding some crystal malt to offset sourness with some residual sweetness (could mash higher, too). Could also kettle sour, or even just use normal sacc yeast and add some lactic acid or lemon juice. |

simcoe = pine/woodsy/passionfruit
2oz simcoe 0.33 + 0.66 + 1
1oz amarillo 0.16 + 0.33 + 0.5
1oz mosaic for boil 0.16 + 0.33 + 0.5
simcoe = 2oz + 1oz dryhop = 3oz buy
amarillo = 1oz + 1oz dryop = 2 oz buy
mosaic = 1 oz + 1oz dryhop = 2 oz buy + 0.5 oz have
ended up with 3.8-9 gallons of beer instead of typical 3, so carbonation amount reflects that |
