Notes: Weight of Apple Juice is Approximately 8.75 lb/ gal.
PPG of Apple Juice was adjusted to get to OG of ~45 where most AJ lives.
Ed's Apfelwein uses Corn Sugar, but I prefer the caramel-y additions of brown sugar. |

Notes: Add 3 sectioned and de-pithed grapfruits to 170 degree water, let sit for at least ten minutes. Drain, mash with a sanitized masher and add at flameout. Zest the grapefruits and make a tincture, add when dry-hopping.
Did my best to honor the more feasible Sculpin Clone recipes out there, but had to substitute a few hops as the LHBS was out of a few varieties...Liberty for Northern Brewer, Doubled up the Warrior to replace Tomahawk, Nugget may have replaced something else...

Notes: Add 2 tsp of Gypsum to water, based off starting with DC water.
The recipe released from the White House has an error, they mention 1.5 oz of Fuggle in the list of ingredients, but then only 0.5 oz in the instructions. I went with 1.5 oz here.
The instructions are also a little weird in terms of the boil times. They say 'add the honey and boil for 5 more minutes'. So, actually it is a 50 minute boil, not a 45 minute boil.
Other than that, it is a straight forward extract batch.
To get it to qualify as an Amber Ale, had to set the IBU equation to Rager, and the SRM equation to Daniels. I'm open to suggestions on the style (haven't tasted it). |

Notes: Sour cherries were frozen, then thawed and pitted, and then frozen and thawed again before adding to the secondary. Added 1/8 tsp liquid pectic enzyme (several years old, so maybe no good) at the time to help clear haze. Lots of secondary fermentation from the cherries and juice. Also added 1 tsp gelatin (softened in 1/4 c cold water) finings. Still some haze before bottling, so added 1/4 tsp powdered pectic enzyme. Bottled with 2.6 oz. corn sugar.
Final gravity 1.003! ABV 8.3% |

Notes: Pumpkin 5 lb (shallow baking pan with little water @325 x 1hr or @300 x 2hr)
either steep with grains @ 150-155 degrees for 1 hr & sparge
* or add to boil for more flavor & body
If adding pumpkin to boil, steep grains for only 30 min @ 150-155.
Spring water 3.5 gal initial boil. Sanitize fermenter/carboy with Saniclean. Save sanitizer for hydrometer, spatula, & air lock.
Steep grains for 30 min at 155-160F (158).
Add bittering hops (not in bag), bring to boil, & boil for 30 min.
After 30 min boil, add pumpkin (not in bag), flavoring hops (not in bag), & boil 30 min.
With 10 min left in boil, add irish moss & yeast nutrient (if using).
With 5 min left, add spices & strainer (to sanitize).
End of boil add vanilla.
Cool wort with ice (3 10lb bags) in garden tub stirring ice 1 way & wort counter. Add frozen spring water (1 gal in 2 small amounts from 2 plastic containers that were sanitized prior to water being added). After cooling to 60F, aerate well then pour into fermenter through sanitized strainer & QS to 5 gal with refrigerated / room temp spring water dropping temp to 65F.
Check OG with SANITIZED hydrometer & pitch yeast. Dry yeast should be suspended in 100ml of water @ ~85F for 15 min.
Leave in garden tub with water in closet at 66F (or minimal recommended fermentation temp), after 48 hr active fermentation with temp @ 66F, slowly let temp increase to 72F max (or max 3 degrees less than recommended fermentation temp). After 10-14 days, transfer to 2nd fermenter or keg. Have blow out tube ready @36 hr. Total fermentation/lager time 4 weeks.
