| Notes: Quadrupel Style Grand Cru. Heavier trappist style, with an ABV hidden behind taste. Should be slightly sweet, but still dry with hints of sweet orange peel and a barrel-aged taste. Be sure to use a blowoff tube when fermenting. Add sweet orange peel in primary, and French Oak secondary. Fermentation lasts three weeks. After ten days, primary is over. |

| Notes: my first attempt at porter, thought it turned out well, was a bit under-carbonated. that problem lessened as time passed, by december 9th i have a near fully carbonated beer that i enjoy so much its becoming a bit hard to refrain from drinking it any longer. |

Notes: Create a yeast starter with 1 C. orange juice, 1 tspn Yeast Nutrient, and Yeast in a mason jar. Let sit for 3-5 hours before brewing.
Crash the brew with 1/2 tspn per gallon of Potassium Sorbate after 7-10 days in fermentation, around when the OG reaches 1.020. Then, let sit for the rest of a full month to absorb the spices before racking to secondary. You can also pitch the spices in secondary instead, and rack immediately to secondary at 7 days.
On secondary, boil the the extra sugars for 15 minutes in a liter of water in a small sauce pot, siphoning off any nastiness. Pitch in, and give the mead a gentle stir for 30 seconds. This must be done *after* the Potassium Sorbate has been pitched and integrated well to crash the fermentation.
Be sparring with the orange juice. It tends to overwhelm the subtlety of the spices if too much is used, even by a half-cup. It adds a necessary acidic-sweetness to the mead to blend out the stark dryness of the spices against the earthy sweetness of the mead.
I tend to use a forest honey for a more mature vegetable sweetness, but summer bloom or clover works just as well.
Let sit on Secondary for 2-3 months. Continue to rack to desired clarity. Best if brewed in December and given at least 2 months to rest in a bottle. |

Notes: Update 1: My first recipe creation. Everything went well during brewing except for a 1.043 gravity which is a good .01 less than the estimate here. I assume it has to do with my inexperience with steeping grains. Other than that the initial taste is pretty good. Really sweet almost no real hint of hops; I didn't want a lot of the bitter hops flavor anyway so I'm ok with it.
Update 2: Fermentation was really active. Foamed up a good bit, but didn't need the blow off tube. A week in and the bubbles have all but stopped. Still really cloudy and a just a tad darker than the estimate here, but close. I'm actually impressed at how accurate this site has been.
Update 3: Bottled it last night. Color was a nice amber and the ABV is at 4.5%. It's still very sweet, but it's a honey sweet. The hops do come through a bit now which is good since I was worried about that, however on the next attempt I'll double the initial Fuggles amount as well as the dry hop amount at the end. I used 0.85 oz of corn sugar to prime with so we'll see how it goes the next couple weeks. I ended up with 9 bottles; I maybe could have gotten 10 but it's not a big deal.

| Notes: This is my attempt at an easy brew to sort-of replicate the flavor and nose of a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. It works well enough for me. Everyone who tried it loved the result. It's a nice even, clean beer with a great nose thanks to Cascade. It's a great session beer at just under 5%. Steep a bit of cara red to give it a little more amber color. This is a concentrate, 2.5 gallon brew then blended with 3 gallons of cold water in fermenter after chilling. Lost 1 quart of water to steam and about 1 quart in trub. I bottled exactly 5 gallons. |
