Notes: 1. Finely (and I really do mean finely) dice your ginger and put into a steeping bag.
2. Cut your 6 lemons and 3 limes into quarters, squeezing each one into the water. Once squeezed, throw the slices in the water.
3. Add your 3 cinnamon sticks and 3 cloves.
4. Boil for 60 minutes.
5. Once 60 minutes has been reached, remove all of your steeping items and add your sugar. Boil an additional 10 minutes to sterilize the sugar.
Note: I found that by leaving the steeping items in the water, they tend to absorb the sugar, thereby affecting your gravity.
6. Dilute the wort with your other 2 gallons of water to chill it quicker. Aerate, then pitch your yeast.
7. Take continuous gravity readings, and stop around 1.011 or 1.010. The higher the gravity, the sweeter and more syrupy it will be. 1.011 is a good cross between sweet with just enough dryness.
8. Once FG is acheived, bottle using a plastic bottle to tell where your carbonation is at. Once carbonation has been acheived, pasteurize and you're done.
Other notes: Ginger and citrus slows the fermentation process, this can take up to a month or more, have patience and you'll get there.
I opted to use a champaigne yeast, as EC-1118 has almost no flavor profile, and has a huge ideal temperature range. This makes it easier to make this year-round. |

Notes: HALF MOST MEASUREMENTS
Place grains in 2.5 gallons (9.5 L) of water, heat to 170º F (77° C), let sit for 25 minutes.
Return to boil, dissolve extract. Return to boil. Add 1-1/2 oz. (43 g) hops and chocolate (add slowly and stir constantly so it doesn’t stick and burn on the bottom).
At 45 minutes add 1/2 oz. (14 g) hops. At 60 minutes, turn off the boil. Chill to 88° F (31° C) and add to carboy with 1-1/2 gallons (5.7 L) water.
Pitch yeast (built up as a one-quart starter with DME) at 78º F (26° C).
After primary is complete, rack to secondary, store in cool place (below 60º F or 16° C) for 45 days.
Rack to bottling bucket, add one gallon (3.8 L) room temperature coffee and 3/4 cup bottling sugar. Stir well to mix and then bottle. |

Notes: 1. Do an yeast starter 2 days before the brewing day.
2. Brewing day: crush the grains (8oz wheat malt), add 2 gal of water to your kettle and heat to 155F; add the grain bag and stir for 30 minutes.
3. Remove the kettle from burner, remove the bag, add wheat LME (6.6lb) slowly while stirring. (malt has to be completely dissolved before placing the kettle back on the burner)
4. Heat to a boil; when reaching boil add 1 oz Cascade hops (@ 60min)
5. Add Irish Moss @ 15 min
6. Sanitize the fermentor; dissolve the Blueberry Special Blend in 4 cups of water and add to the fermentor along with 2 gal of cold water
7. Cool the wort as fast as possible to 70-80F
8. Pour the wort through a sanitized funnel and strainer
9. Top up the fermentor with cold water up to 5 gal. Stir the wort and oxygenate with O2 for 30 seconds.
10. Once wort reach 68-70F, take a gravity read and pitch the yeast. Seal the fermentor.
11. Primary fermentation: 68-72F for 10-14 days (dump the trub if you are using a conical); Secondary fermentation: 1 week
12. Dry hop with 0.5oz of Cascade 1 week before kegging (day 14)
13. On the kegging day, add 4oz of Blueberry flavor to your keg before force carbonate |
