Notes: Soak the 4oz cacao nibs in 4oz of vodka for 24 hours before adding cacao nib/vodka slurry (into primary after primary fermentation subsides or into secondary fermenter if you use one).
I have a 1oz packet of crystallized orange as a backup in case I notice the citrus flavors aren't quite there. But hoping to get away with not using it. (When I brewed, this was unnecessary as the hops gave plenty of citrus flavors) |

Notes: This is a modified version of Vacant Gesture Blonde Ale. You can see Chris Harrison brew this beer on YouTube - his tag is Harrybrew69.
The link for this recipe is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GwSvbdgQmY&pbjreload=10
Wheat Malt Chris uses is Bairds - I have dialed in my ingredients to more closely conform to Chris' grain percentages (Vastly different grist this time).
Chris uses US-05, I would like to try this with US-04 or Nottingham.
This is a delicious and satisfying, slightly bitter brew that is perfect most anytime. It is bright yellow in the glass and easy drinking, with a not too high ABV so you can enjoy more than 1. I have a 2.5 gallon version with Chinook for small batch brewers. |

Notes: Ferment at 63°F (17°C) for 48 hours, then increase the temperature by about 1°F (0.5°C) per day until you reach 70°F (21°C) and hold there until two days after the completion of fermentation. Add the pureed raspberries to the primary fermentor (or add to a secondary fermentor and rack beer onto it), dissolve the pectic enzyme into ½ cup (118 ml) of cool water and add to beer/fruit. You may notice a short secondary fermentation from the sugars in the fruit. Wait 7–10 days. At that point, crash the beer to 35°F (2°C), then keg the beer and carbonate to about 2 volumes. |

Notes: Aiming for a tart, funky, dark Saison - a mix of a dark Saison and an Oud Bruin. Mash high for more long-chain sugars for the bugs to chew on over time. Any type hops for bitterness only, about 10ish IBU (don’t want hops to inhibit pH drop too much, or bitterness to clash with tartness).
Cut dried figs in half, boil in wort (enough to cover - about 2 cups) for 15 min, deglaze if needed, and then blend with stick blender. Add in last 5-10 minutes of the boil.
Due to equipment limitations, I’m doing a partial boil and then adding RO water to get up to full volume into fermentor; do full volume boil if possible. I start with 5.56 gallons, using BIAB no sparge. Lose 0.66 gal to grain absorption, so 4.9 gal preboil. Lose 1 gal during 60 min boil, so 3.9 gal postboil. Lose 0.6 gal to kettle dead space, so 3.3 gal into fermentor. Top up with 2 gal RO water, so 5.3 gal total in fermentor. Lose about 0.3 gal to trub, so want as close to 5.0 gallons to rack into secondary fermentor (5 gal BB carboy for me), to reduce headspace and therefore O2 exposure over the long secondary.
Initially ferment with the sacc (a mix of Belgian and French saison yeasts) in primary, then rack to secondary and add house sour culture and/or bottle dregs (with lacto, Brett, and pedio - I listed WLP655 as an example, if you don’t have your own sour culture. Also add some Goodbelly - L. Plantaram - to sour), along with oak cubes (boil first to sanitize and reduce strongest flavors - only want as background note - then soak in red wine, port, dark rum, etc). Let sit for 3-12 months before tasting, and package when you like the flavor. I plan to bottle half as is, and rack the other half into a 3 gallon fermentor on top of raspberries and/or blackberries, and cacao nibs. |

Notes: Mash grains at 150° F (66° C) for 60 minutes. Mash out and sparge at 168° F (76° C). Boil 90 minutes, adding first hops 60 minutes before flameout. Add Saaz hops and ground spices at flameout, and whirlpool 5 minutes. Chill wort to 63° F (17° C) and ferment for 7 days, allowing temperature to free rise to 73° F (23° C) and ferment to completion. Prime with 5 oz. (142 g) dextrose per 5 gallons (18.9 L) if bottling, or crash, keg, and force carbonate. |
