Notes: Simple plan for simple stuff:

- Pitch one packet of S-04 into 4 gal of Kirkland brand apple juice @~59f. Keep temperature stable.
- Just after lag phase has ended, mix 1.5-2g Fermaid O into some apple juice, and add with enough juice to top up to 4.7 gal total. This should be on the lower end of the nutrient schedule, hopefully just enough to ward off diacetyl and sulphur.
- Wait until >50% attenuated, and start ramping the temperature a couple of degrees a day to ~68.
- With a couple of points left to go until FG, ~1.007ish, add the dry hops.
- Let dry hop for 4-7 days, cold crashing at FG.
- Rack to serving keg after 24-48 hours at cold crash temperatures.
- Let condition in the fridge, hopefully drink young.

------------------------------------------------------

10/16/20:

Racked after cold crash w/ 7 days hop contact (5 @ 67f, 2 during cold crash) to serving keg. Next time I'll use a hop bag rather than letting them float freely - even after the cold crash there was enough in suspension to clog the floating dip tube, so I had to open everything up and siphon-pump transfer. Not ideal, hopefully oxidization doesn't become a problem.

Manual hydrometer readings verified that this ended up right around 1.002, and a taste of the pre-carb sample was pretty good. There's no detectable sulfur taste, no other significant fermentation off flavors, and mild apple flavor (about as much as is reasonable considering I'm not back-sweetening), though the hops are a little grassy and dank.

Next time I'll probably switch up the hops to something fruity and tropical, and limit the contact time a little more (maybe 3 days at room temp before cold crashing?)

Plan is to burst carb @30psi for ~24 hours, then turn it down to ~12psi and shamelessly drink under-carbed cider till it's ready.

------------------------------------------------------

10/20/20:

After a little more thought I turned the pressure down to 14psi rather than 12, to give it a little more mouthfeel from increased carbonation and help the hop aromatics. It's been a few days since then, and the general consensus is that this turned out really well!

In line with my initial impressions, there aren't any fermentation off flavors I can pick out, but, with carbonation, the S-04 has left pleasant but subtle notes I'd normally associate with ale. The finished cider is crystal clear, very dry without being astringent or harsh, and has a crisp, tart, finish. Apple notes are distinguishable on the finish, but meld with the hop flavors well enough you have to pay attention. While the hop flavors started out worryingly grassy and dank, that quickly faded into the sort of smooth herbal spice I'd expect from Tettnanger and Willamette.

It's really a shame I didn't brew this at the start of summer, rather than at the start of fall, but that can be fixed next year!

Notes: Bring 27 litres of water to 65C and steep speciality grains for 30 mins, keeping temperature constant.
After 30 mins, remove steeping grains, and add DME whilst bringing temperature to a rolling boil Set your timer for 60 minutes.
Add 60g Hallertau at commencement of boil, and maintain rolling boil.
Add 1 protflec tablet 15 mins before end of boil and stir till dissolved.
Add 20g Hallertau 10 mins before end of boil, and the remaining 60g once you have turned off the heat at the end of 60 minutes.
Cool the wort as quickly as possible, and ensure the temperature is below 23C before pitching the yeast. For a cleaner taste, use a starter for the yeast, but dry pitching will work adequately with 1x10g packet if the temperature is maintained above 15C.
Maintain a temperature of between 15 and 23C during primary fermentation, and test with a hydrometer after approx. 8 days to ensure final gravity is met and constant over at least 2 days before priming.
Once ready to bottle or decant to a barrel, dissolve 166g of corn sugar/dextrose in a little water, and rapidly cool by placing the pan in cold water. Gently stir this in to the fermenter being careful to avoid disturbing the sediment.
Bottle, or decant to a barrel, and leave for at least 3 weeks to ensure the beer has cleared.
Chill before serving.

Notes: Opted for a light ginger forward summer ale using WLP 001. Fermentation aggressive for 72 hours at 73 degrees. Ginger is not overpowering but subtle enough to taste the spice. Taste test post fermentation and add remaining ginger in hop sack until desired taste attained.
