Notes: 1.064 pre-boil gravity way above...but I will be adding 4 litres of chilled water to the fermentor to bring down the temps quickly. Option if another 2 litres if gravity is too high (dilution calculator suggests 6 litres needed in total).
6 litres added to bring to 20l. 1.051 so used dilution calculator that suggested adding 1 more litre. Wait for it to cool to pitching temps before taking another reading. 21 litres in the fermentor. Only 1 litre from the target and should be on the button with OG....should be...
Pitched yeast ar 20c and after four days pushed temps up to 22c then 23c and then 24c. Keeping the FC here for the next 5 days and take a reading 3 days before expected bottling day.
Yeast was true and yeast cake from previous Dubbel Trubel brew.
Day 11 reading 1.007. Beyond target. Probably due to massive overpitch of yeast.
2 weeks bottle conditioning and there is a very forward medicinal flavour...suspect either tub and yeast from the pitch or Hersbrucker hop...
Shall not be using Endeavor hops ever again and will have to see how Hersbrucker manages as a bittering hop in my next brew...live and learn

Notes: Mash at 149° F (65° C) for 60–75 minutes.

Collect 5.9 gallons (22 L) of wort. Add hops with 60 minutes left in the boil. Chill wort to 54° F (12° C). Aerate and pitch yeast from yeast starter. Let ferment, allowing the temperature to rise to 64° F (18° C). After fermentation stops, allow the beer to sit for 3–7 days. Then, add bottling sugar to prime for 4 volumes of CO2 and bottle in heavy bottles.

Notes: I set the efficiency down to 55 percent for a High Gravity brew but then considered using Reiterated Mashing. I split the grain in half, except for putting the Chocolate / Roasty grains in the second.
I've had the bourbon and chips started for 3 weeks. I added a little Fireball to up the cinnamon character - about 2 oz added when the devil's cut was consumed by the mocha chips - I also heated the mocha chips to make them more aromatic. Add the chips and all the bourbon after fermentation. BTW - Some suggest to toss the Bourbon that soaked the chips to reduce the tannins...if you do that, you will need more Bourbon to taste.

Last time I used Reiterated Mashing Techniques and it was a way more sedate brewday. This time I am using a 15 gallon kettle and a 33cm grain basket. I hope all the grain fits in that basket...if so, it'll cut the brewday in half, timewise. I can still put excess grains in a bag to finish the mash - doing so doubles the time to extract and will make me need hot water to sparge.

I am removing the DME (did not need it) and replacing it with Swaen Brown Supreme - 1lb...this should help with the body thinness and head retention and round this beer out further. Added 1 lb of rice hulls to help with circulation.

Ended up 67% efficiency. Didnt use the DME at all. Finished the brewday, Aerated with 2 minutes pure oxygen, used 1 tsp of yeast nutrient, 1 whirlfloc tablet. Get the bourbon and start preparing the wood chips 9/18/2023.

Larry used REDEMPTION Pre-Prohibition branded bourbon.
I am considering several, including
Wild Turkey 101 - Cheap but burny - might do well in a RIS.
Makers Mark 46 - Supposed to have a complex vanilla taste
Jefferson Reserve - Uh, breaks the bank but NICE
Buffalo Trace - Vanilla, Mint, Molasses
Bulleit KSB - Rye forward
Eijah Craig Small Batch 1789 - Vanilla, Nuts, Molasses, Sweet

Time to go get the bourbon (I chose EC 1789) and put 4 oz with my LD Carlson Mocha Oak chips so they can booze up until it is time to secondary.

Fermentation: Nothing much in first 8-10 hours, after that, I got a finger of Krausen and fermentation kicked into high gear...steady stream of CO2 in my blowoff vessel. Maintained for 5 days, then it slowed. Fearing a stall, I ramped the temp to 65 and later to 67. I get a burp of CO2 every 30-40 seconds now (Day 8) and I have a nice bed of sediment and clear dark beer. I ramped to 70 for 3-5 days to ensure complete attenuation and I will grab an F.G. sample at that time. Sample tested with hydrometer: F.G.: 1.021.

This is the fifth brew of this beer. I will use Nottingham since it's what I have on hand. My greatest issue is I don't want a yeast that will dry out the beer too much - Notty is badass and will ferment a truck if left in there long enough. Alcohol content is high enough to prevent that, I hope.
