Notes: A Scaled-Down Mash Schedule from Cantillon Brewery

The following is a homebrew-scale version of the Cantillon Brewery’s (Brussels, Belgium) turbid mash schedule. Based on the information presented in Martin Lodahl’s article, the Cantillon Brewery gets about 33–34 points/lb/gallon. The Cantillon grist is composed of 34% raw wheat and 66% malted barley. The recipe is scaled down here to yield 5 gallons of wort with an original gravity of 1.048 (11.86 °P), or 5 x 48 = 240 points. If we assume we will get 30 points/lb/gallon, then 240 ÷ 30 = 8 lb of grain. The barley malt fraction is 66% of 8 lb, or 5.3 lb of malt, leaving the remaining fraction of raw wheat at 2.7 lb.

The Cantillon schedule calls for mashing 1,300 kg of grain into 850 L of water (2,860 lb grain into 900 quarts water), or 3.2 lb grain/qt water, or 0.3 qt water/lb grain. Our 8 lb of grain therefore requires 8 x 0.3 quarts, or 2.4 quarts of water.

Procedure

In all of the following steps, the temperature and water additions were taken directly from the Cantillon schedule as published and scaled accordingly.

1) In kettle #1, combine water (about 2.4 quarts) at 144 °F (62 °C) and the crushed grain to achieve a temperature of 113 °F (45 °C). Mix the grain and water thoroughly and allow it to rest at 113 °F for 10 minutes. This amount of water is just enough to wet all of the grain and flour. The mash needs to be stirred well to make sure that all the grain is wetted and that no clumps of flour are present. Total time for this step is about 20 minutes, including the temperature rest.

2) Next, add enough boiling water (212 °F [100 °C]) to the mash to bring the temperature to 136 °F (58 °C). Do this over the course of 5 minutes, making sure to mix thoroughly. It will take about 3.5 quarts of boiling water to raise the mash temperature to 136 °F, and you will end up with a very soupy mash with plenty of excess liquid. Allow the mash to rest for 5 minutes at this temperature. Remove about 1 quart of liquid from the mash, add it to kettle #2, and heat to 176 °F (80 °C). The liquid taken off should have the appearance of milk. Once heated it will clear up and large particles of hot break will form.

3) Add more boiling water to the mash over the course of 10 minutes to bring the temperature to 150 °F (65 °C), again with constant mixing. It will take about 5 quarts to achieve this temperature. Allow the mash to rest for 30 minutes at 150 °F (65 °C). At this point, the mash will be very soupy and the liquid much less milky in appearance.

4) Remove 4 quarts of liquid from kettle #1 and add it to kettle #2, which will put it up to 5 quarts. Continue to heat kettle #2 to maintain a temperature of 176 °F (80 °C). The liquid removed from kettle #1 will be very cloudy, but not quite as milky as the liquid previously removed in step 2.

5) Add more boiling water to kettle #1 to bring the temperature to 162 °F (72 °C) and allow it to remain at that temperature for 20 minutes. Again, it will take about 5 quarts of water to reach the rest temperature. The mash should be very thin and soupy with a great deal of small particulate matter in the liquid portion.

6) After the 20-minute rest, run off the liquid from kettle #1 and bring to a boil in a third kettle. Add enough of the liquid from kettle #2, at 176 °F (80 °C), back into the mash in kettle #1 to bring the mash to a temperature of about 167 °F (75 °C). Allow the mash to rest at that temperature for 20 minutes. If any liquid is left in kettle #2, it can be added to the previously collected runoff in kettle #3.

7) After 20 minutes, recirculate the wort in kettle #1 to clarify it, and begin sparging with 185 °F (85 °C) water. Sparge until the gravity of the runoff has dropped to less than 1.008 (2.06 °P). Boil the wort, now in kettle #3, until the volume is reduced to about 5 gallons.

8) As the wort begins to boil, hop with about 4 oz of aged hops. The combined water additions and sparging should add up to about 9 gallons of wort. Total boiling time to reduce this volume to 5 gallons will depend on your equipment and methods. At the beginning of the boil, the wort will be cloudy and full of large flocculent break material. As the boil proceeds, the wort should clarify as the proteins continue to coagulate and the starch solubilizes. After boiling, the wort can be cooled using your method of choice. This method of mashing does not seem to yield the large amount of break that a typical all-malt infusion mash would yield. As stated elsewhere, however, your results may vary depending on your equipment and technique.

BREWING DAY-TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
DRINKABILITY: Sampled on a few hours of carbonation and it taste fantastic!! Can really taste the freshness.

SESSION NOTES:
Changed from 15 pds of German Pilsner to 12 pds.
Accidentally tossed SAAZ & Hallertau at boil.
Tossed correct SAAZ & Hallertau at end of boil.
Too much water loss due to boil.
Should have had boiling water end of session to top off fermenator to 5.25 gallons.

STANDARD BREWING NOTES:
Create 8 gallons sparge water. Bring to 154° strike temperature
Prime pump. Push water through hose.
Add grain – Sparge at 152° for 90 minutes (Minimum 60)
(One gallon loss during sparge process)
Water burn rate: 1 gallon per hour.
Drain GRAIN from kettle. Adjust water height of ___ (7 gallons)
Boil clean water for end of boil session adjustment
Mash Option dark beers – Add x tablespoon Calcium Carbonate
60 minutes – Add tablespoon 5.2 pH balancer
60 minutes – Add 2 drops Fermcap
60 minutes – Add 5 tablespoon Gypsum for IPA (Optional)
15 minutes – Add immersion chiller
15 minutes - Add Whirlfloc
10 minutes – Add 1 teaspoon Yeast Nutrient last 10 minutes
♦Check to see if nozzle is pointed upwards

KEGGING NOTES:
Purge oxygen with CO2
Chill keg 24 hours before force carbonation.
Force Carbonation Calculator: 20 psi 4 days
Volumes of CO2 2.5 at 36°F = 10.2 psi American Ales

Procedure:
I would use a large grain bag (24"x24") as there is a lot of grain to mash.
Mash normally for 60 minutes then sparge normally. Collect 6 gallons to 6.25 Gallons of wort for boil. Boil for 90 minutes total. Bittering hops for 60 min., flavor and aroma hops separately during the last minute of the boil. Chill to 65ish F. Take OG. Crudely filter (whirlpool) from your boil into your primary after pitching your 2 packs of 1007 (Hops in the primary is good for this beer). Ferment for 2 weeks@ 65ish F. Take FG. Calculate dextrose amount based on yield in gallons, I used 3.5 oz. Filter beer through fine strainer or pantyhose (or both) from your primary into your bottling vessel. Bottle. Leave for another 2 weeks with minimum aggravation (you want the yeast to settle and become dense). Chill 24hrs prior to drinking. Pour into glass avoiding the yeast. Enjoy and share.

Creation Date: 10/15/2017 8:55 AM

Notes: 10g of S04 yeast.
Lower than expected OG of 1.050. Same amount of yeast, so possible over-attenuation issue. Also, added sugar to to boil which may account for efficiency problem i.e off target OG.

Second brew:
New equipment and much bigger volume. Pre-boil gravity 1.047, very near target. OG at 61c (adjusted for temp) was 1.053, so a few points off. Not sure why though... Will test again prior to pitching when temp comes down. Trialling no-chill in the primary fermenter.

Chilled in the kettle outside to 68c then transferred to fermenters and left outside. Brought in overnight and by morning down to 18c! Yeast pitched. It is Autumn now, so that is why the overnight temps are cool enough.

Very vigorous fermentation with little headspace in the fermentor led to stout all over the place and replaced the sanitiser solution in the airlock. Successful test run for my fermentation chamber.

Gravity at 10 days 1.014. I think it is done, but will leave for another three days and test again. Gravity at 12 days 1.013. Cacao nibs and drops of Orange essence into the primary of one fermenter. The other will be left as a staright Oatmeal stout with a big chunk of chocolate malt.

This is a very decent stout. It's now been bottle conditioning for a couple of months. Will brew this again. Possibly cocoa powder into the boil next time for chocolate punch. Orange also barely noticeable, will need a much bigger dose next time.
