| Notes: Steep grain in 3.5lts water at 68 degrees C for 30 mins (remove bag), add 4.5lts of water bring to boil add 1 tub of munton's light malt extract (1.8kg) and boil until foam starts to settle about 15 mins. Start the 60 min boil after this, @60 min add 10g pacific jade, @ 30 mins add 10g citra, 10g zythos,(also add 1 teaspoon of Irish moss at 30 mins)(start to rehydrate yeast at 20 mins) @ 5 mins add 10g zythos and 10g citra, @flame out add 10g zythos and 10g citra. Cooled wort in sink of cold/iced water until it is under 20 degrees and pitched the yeast. After 5 days increased temp to 21 degrees, then after another 48 hours dry hopped with 10g of cascade, 30g citra, 20 zythos. Tasted @ day 5 and it was very bitter. So I bought 3 440g tins of sliced mango, I froze the flesh and added the syrup to the brew. when I dry hopped I added the frozen mango also approx 500g. left for 8 days then bottled. I tasted this yesterday (3 weeks in the bottle) and the mango has smoothed out the bitterness and I am now planing on brewing this again at 23lt as it tastes darn good. If a little hazy. |

Notes: Double batch was brewed on 12-31-16.
Boil kettle #1 - 10 gal Mega Pot
Boil kettle #2 - 7 gal stainless steel pot
Additional water was added to the pre-boil pot to compensate for losses in evaporation and absorption. We were shooting for roughly a 6-8% loss in water volume during the boil process.
The cascade hops were added at the 55 minute mark or 5 min boil time instead of 10 min. We wanted to retain more of the hop essential oils and aromas in the wort.
The beer had quite a bit of sediment/trub in the pot as we experienced a few clogged hoses and a clogged pickup tube during the racking process from the boil kettle to the fermenter. Most of the sludge was due to hop material that had absorbed liquid wort. Next time it would be worth the effort to contain the hops in a cheesecloth bag or some type of strainer vessel.
10 gal brew pot #1 had additional water added after the boil to bring up the volume to roughly 5 gal. Not sure why there was a significant difference between pot #1 and pot #2 with regard to water losses during the boil. Perhaps pot #1 had a more vigorous boil.
Post-boil gravity was 1.075 in a 70 degree room.
Racked beer to keg on 1-22-17. Initial tasting was excellent. |
