Notes: THEORY:
3.5 gal mash water
2.5 gal sparge
- 1.5 gal absorption (5.33lb/gal rate)?
- 1 gal boil-off/trub?
3gal post-boil?
.75 quarts/lb absorption?
BREW:
3.5gal mash
- turned out to be a really thin mash, could easily get away with 2.5gal of mash (.5gal too much)
OG = 1.046
Primary: 4/17/2019
Secondary: 4/24/2019
FG = 1.026 (apparent attenuation of 44% [of 81%])
Bottling: 4/30 (2.5gal total); 60g white table sugar in 1 cup water
ABV est = 2.66%
TASTING:
Nice lemon/citrus aroma, but greatly lacking in body - once swallowed, flavors disappear quickly; could be due to ABV, maybe swap out 2lb of 2-row for Munich? Also add lemon zest and/or lemon peel in secondary for more citrus flavor. Watch mash temp to keep it around 150-155F. |

Notes: Kjøl ned vørter til 17 grader før pitching av gjær.
Rist godt på gjæringsbøtten i 5-10 minutter etter at vørteren er kjølt ned og overført fra kjelen, for å få mest mulig oksygen inn i ølet før gjæring.
Gjæring på 18 grader i 5 dager, 20 grader i 9 dager.
Forslag til vannfordeling (for BIAB, gjelder ikke Speidel eller andre bryggesystemer med resirkulering av mesk):
18 l (3 l/kg) meskevann
15,5 skyllevann (på 77-78 grader) |

| Notes: Add lactic acid in mash to drop ph to ~4.6. Kettle sour until desired ph/sourness is reached (ph around 3.4). Re-heat soured wort to kill lacto, lower temp for whirlpool, lower temp to pitching range, and pitch yeast. Hold in primary until final OG is reached, rack to secondary over blended blackberries. After 24-48 hours on blackberries, add dry hop. Let beer sit for 48-72 more hours then keg and condition. |
