Notes: 3.3 lbs honey
1.5 oz. dried hibiscus petals
1 oz. juniper berries
water to 1 gallon
Bread yeast (boiled to make yeast nutrient)
Lalvin EC-1118 (Wine yeast, for fermenting)

Bring 3/4 gallons of water to a boil. Crack the juniper berries, then add them to the water. Add the hibiscus petals. Let steep for 30 minutes. Ladle off a bit into a small glass, and add some honey. Use that to rehydrate the EC-1118.
Ladle off another portion into a small pot. Rehydrate the bread yeast, then bring to a strong boil. Add the honey to the jar. Grab an extra pitcher, and strain the juniper-hibiscus mix into it. Add the mix to the jar.

By now everything should be cool. Add the boiled bread yeast to the jar. Add the hopefully now foamy EC-1118 to the jar. Measure the gravity, and adjust with honey or water to 1.120.

Notes: I created a culture of bugs from the dregs of bottles of Jolly Pumpkin Calabaza Blanca, Jolly Pumpkin La Roja, and Lindemans Framboise Lambic prior to racking by a solution of 2 cups water to one half cup DME. The scent was acidic with a small pellicle growing atop.

The day prior, I boiled peaches, then pureed them using my ninja blender. I then placed them in the refrigerator in sanitized jars.

Rack onto peaches and toasted french oak chips as you approach FG. Add your yeast culture. Swirl carboy contents and let sit for 6 months.

**UPDATE - 8/ 15 /15 Tasted Approximately 2 months after adding peaches. The peach flavor is null, however, the sour is present. Next time I will use apricot as I hear it is better used for that stone fruit flavor. At this point in time, the beer is very well balanced and tasty with mild sourness. I hope the sour will grow. Beer is a nice orangey / brown color.

11/23/15 - Bottled. FG of 1.004. Damn, this is amazing. I believe this beer is about 7%abv

Notes: Aiming for a Sussex style (Harveys) bitter. Adapted from the recipe suggested by dyqik on the homebrewtalk forum which is itself based on one from the jim's beer kits forum. Both are all grain recipes so I've adapted for extract and also adjusted the hops and timings slightly. Grains steeped in 6 litres at 65 to 70 degrees then topped up to 10 litres for the boil with half the malt extract added at this point and the rest at the end. Hence target IBUs should be higher than predicted here. Decided to try a fwh with some of the bramlings cross hops rather than steeping at the end as I've read this gives a better more balanced flavour and aroma.

Notes: An IPA with primarily Galaxy hops (citrus, peach, passion fruit), backed up by some El Dorado (tropical fruit, pear, watermelon, citrus). Simple light LME base, with 4% vienna malt steeped to add a touch more malt flavour to offset the hops. No crystal or caramel malt, to allow the hops to shine through. Almost all hopes added 10 minutes, whirplool or dry hopped.

Notes: Immerse the oak cubes in a bourbon of your choice and set aside while the beer is in primary. When primary is finished, put the cubes in your secondary vessel and rack on top. Let sit for at least a month, and then sample every few weeks until the oak flavor is to your liking. Now prepare the vanilla beans.

Cut the vanilla beans into one-inch long pieces and cut in half lengthwise. Scrape out the gunk inside and discard. Soak the beans in bourbon for a day or so to sanitize. Add to the secondary and let sit for two weeks, then bottle or keg.

This beer really benefits from long-term bottle-conditioning. Immediate tastings were positive, but six-month old bottles were outstanding. Time really allows the flavors to meld with the vanilla.

Notes: Make a starter with apple cider and water to get to 1.035. Added 1/4tsp Fermax Yeast Nutrient in the 1000ml starter. I waited until the yeast was completely finished fermenting the starter. I cold crashed, decanted the starter cider and pitch the yeast slurry.

Use fresh pressed cider from local orchard. Add 1 campden tablet per gallon of cider and wait 24 hours. StarSan the heck out of the rim of the jugs and caps so that they're clean once you're ready to pour into carboy.

Boil 2 quarts of water with brown sugar to dissolve and sterilize. Add to cold cider in carboy. Should stabilize the temperature just fine especially if taking the cider from a cold fridge.

Add 1tsp of Fermax to 4 gallons of cider/sugar blend. Pitch yeast and fermented in cool basement around 60 degrees air temp.

Keg and back sweeten with 2 cans of 100% grapefruit juice.

Notes: This is an easy and delicious sweat cider. Here are the instructions:
• Buy 5 gal of fresh unfiltered cider (pasteurized)
• Buy 6 cans of Apple juice concentrate. (No preservatives or added sugar)
• Buy Yeast nutrient
• Buy Champaign yeast. I usually use 2 packs of the dry yeast because it only cost $ 0.75.
• Mix your cider, thawed apple juice concentrate, and yeast nutrient in a car boy. Make sure you start with the apple juice concentrate and top off with cider leaving room for fermentation at top of carboy.
• Mix well and take an OG reading.
• Shake really well for 2 mins and Pitch yeast.
• Seal with airlock and put in cool dark room for 7 days.
• Buy 5-6 more cans of apple juice concentrate and rack cider onto apple juice concentrate in bottling bucket.
• Mix well and bottle. (do not add any priming sugar) The apple juice concentrate acts as your priming sugar.
• Make sure you use proper sanitization throughout the all processes. (I use star no rinse sanitizer.)
• Bottle.
• Make sure to open a bottle every week to determine carbonation level. Once desired carbonation level is achieved refrigerate all bottles to stop carbonation.

Notes: Chimay (Red) Style per Beer and Wine Makers of America

Brew Notes
-Used two vials of White Labs yeast instead of making a starter

Directions
Place grains in a grain bag. Put grain bag into 1 gallon of water. Heat to 155° F and steep for 30 minutes. Remove grain bag and drain into the brewpot.

You can rinse the grain bag with hot water but do not squeeze the bag. After removing the grains add water to bring the total to 6 gallons.

Add the malt extracts (DME&WME) and bring to a boil. Add the Hallertauer and Fuggles hops and boil for 30 minutes. Add the Servormyces and continue boiling for another 30 minutes. Add the Clear Candi Syrup and boil for 2 more minutes.
Add 1 oz of Hallertauer Hops at the end of the boil. Cool as quickly as possible.

Add the yeast and aerate thoroughly when temperature drops below 68° F.

Start the fermentation around 68° F and then allow temperature to rise during the primary fermentation to 75° F. When fermentation is complete rack to the secondary fermenter and cool as much as possible, 32° for 3 days is ideal. Then bottle or keg the beer.

Notes: 1.75 L starter made w/ 3 vials whitelabs munich helles 860.

Actual OG 1.051

Cooled w/ wort chiller to 65, racked to carboy and chilled further in chest freezer to 45 (achieved 7 hours later). Aerated and pitched the decanted (chilled) starter. Let temp slowly rise. Krausen activity 24-30 hours later @ 48 degrees. Hit 50 degrees about 36 hours after pitching. Hold at 50.

Down to 1.023 on day 5. Bumped temp up a degree.

Day 6 bumped temp to 53.

1.016 on day 8 and bumped up to 60. sample tasted good. No diacetyl as far as I can tell. Still planning to keep it at 60 for a couple days before lagering, just to be safe.

Transferred to secondary and dropped temp a couple degrees a day until it hit 34. Kept it there 4 weeks, then bottled w/ corn sugar and a bit of washed yeast (probably not necessary).

06/13/14 (4 weeks in bottle) - The beer lacks the maltiness that I was expecting from a munich helles. It's actually pretty fruity, especially in a side by side comparison w/ Andechs Vollbier Hell. Not sure why. Maybe I didn't aerate it well enough, or perhaps I didn't lager it long enough. I enjoy drinking it, but it definitely has a more American flavor profile than I was hoping for. I thought the sample at bottling time was more malty, but can't be certain. KEEP BETTER NOTES!!!
