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. |

Notes: Basic Hefe. Hops are old. going over the ibu because of this.
Whitelabs Hefe Ale yeast.
Single step BIAB mash at 154.
Grains at 67f
1.5qt/lb strike volume of 9qt @ 167f.
3.9qt boiling water for mashout at 170f.
Brew notes.
-Nailed rest temp @ 154. Resting for one hour. Stirring at 30min. Adding boiling water if temp drops below 150.
- I watched it the first 5-10 minutes and the temp held. I checked it around 30 minutes and the heat was around 156. A good stir brought it back down. Smells pretty good. Very wheaty. That's the plan I guess. Frasiskaner clone next time (didn't have the yeast recommended this time).
- Digital temp probe took a shit at some point. Still think my numbers were good after checking with other thermometer.
- Way low efficiency. Rinsed grains more (Fuck BIAB). Lots of extra water. Going to boil a little while prior to adding hops and starting timer.
-Cooled, pitched yeast. Put in my basement at unknown temp (has been holding the same as my heater 68, I put it closer to the door to hopefully hit 65.)
-24 hours later no visible fermentation (the s airlock has the water pushed to one side though). Moved it deeper into my basement and gave it shake.
-48hr Put my thermometer aside of the carboy, read 60. Moved it closer to the heater, it brought it up to about 65
-62 hr brought it upstairs to around 68.
-chillin for a while.
-It is now Christmas Eve (2016). I forget when I brewed this(Im thinking around 2 weeks), I never noted it. I will figure it out at some point.
I just checked the gravity. I came down to 1011. It tasted good. A fairly good balance of esters. It had a slight sour note which was great. I am tempted to bottle some and play with the rest. I have an American Farmhouse from white labs. Might like to try some fruit. just not sure. Will report back.
- New years eve I bottled one gallon, and put ~1 1/2 gallons in 1 gallon glass jugs.
-one jug has a full gallon and the other less than half. I pitched 90% of the culture into the full gallon by accident and only a little in smaller one. That leaves me with a heavy overpitch and a slight underpitch im guessing. tasting in one month. Will probably blend them together at some point.
-2/18 - Overpitch has gotten quite a bit darker. Underpitch got lighter maybe. Both very clear. overpitch came down to 10.06 and underpitch was at 10.07. It was hard to discern much difference between the two otherwise. I used the underpitch to top off the gallon jug of the overpitch (I needed to free up that jug). Will allow to sit another few months before checking it out. |
