Notes: 1. The apples are firstly shredded using a food processor with a shredder attachment. This allows all the apples, skin and all, to have an increased surface area. 25g of Pectinase enzyme is added over the apple shavings and 5 crushed Campden tablets. This is then covered with aluminium foil and a heavy cloth or closed with the lid and airlock. This is allowed to digest for 4 hours at 35 degrees.
2. The apple digest is then placed into a clean and sterilized fruit press lined with a muslin bag. The juice is then slowly pressed over the course of 30-60 minutes into a 20L pressure fermenter. This is given at least 4 additional hours additionally to rest for the SO2 to degas.
3. 500mL of Water is then heated to 75 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes of Pasteurizing, the addition of the Cinnamon, Orange Rind and Earl Grey Tea. After 15 minutes, dissolve 500g of caster sugar in 500mL of water and add to Tea solution.
4. Pour the sugar and flavour mixture into the apple cider fermenter and close the fermenter lid but open the pressure release valve.
5. The Yeast is added 8 hours into the work and fermentation is allowed to occur for 3 weeks at 15 psi.
6. After 3 weeks, transfer clear cider to another clean PET fermenter to exclude sediment from primary fermentation. Allow this to now condition for another 2 weeks in this fermenter with a floating dip tube. Ensure the pressure is allowed to reach 15-20psi. Alternatively, keg in 2.5L PET bottles foe 2 weeks conditioning before serving on tap at 5psi at 4 degrees. Wait for 3 days before serving to absorb the appropriate amount of CO2. |

Notes: Coopers liquid malt extract is prehopped to approximately 20 IBU for a 20L batch --> IBU this batch ~40.
Add ~dozen juniper berries with dryhop
The LME was very old (8 and 4 years after expiration) and had turned quite dark. 1 week into fermentation the beer is perceived as tart and a hint of soy is present. pH measures as 3.7. Color is brown.
pH adjusted to 4.2 and stored cold around 1 week. At kegging tartness is much less perceivable, but soy tones still present. |

Notes: Major grapefruit flavor prior to carbonation, but mellows into an awesome beer with a good "session" level of hops. Steep the crystal at 155°F for 15min, prior to boiling. |

Notes: Sort-of-IPA, interested in combining an "adventurous" hop with a "classical" one.
Perle actually in several additions, at flameout, and later after flamout.
In fact, initially, I was aiming for a BUGU of 1.00 (and slightly lower OG). Realized belatedly I lost more water than expected to boiloff. Chose not to add more... fingers crossed.
Wort chilled in the kettle in ice bath.
Should ferment for a few weeks @ 18-20°C.
Will probably do secondary fermentation for clarification |
