Notes: This beer originated in my mind as a honey oatmeal stout, but i decided milk and honey went together better. I was originally going to use 2 pounds of raw honey, but everyone i have talked to and all the honey beers i have tried that did so wound up tasting funny a few weeks after bottle conditioning. Decided to skip raw honey and focus on high amounts of specialty grains, lower abv, and lighter color. Borrowed this recipe for a base:
https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/237836/chocolate-milk-stout-patio-1812-
This recipe was chosen for its lighter color and lower abv as not to overpower subtle honey notes.
I then substituted my own yeast and hops varieties, changed the chocolate grains to 1 lb specialty honey malts sourced from Root Shoot Malting (keep it colorado local!) and substituted crystal for 4 oz roasted barley.
Was considering using a Lager yeast to help with sweet notes, but my local brewshop (Elevated Fermentations of Loveland) recommended keep it ale but do a hefeweizen. this is going to let those sweet notes and possible banana notes to come through, complimenting the honey notes (in theory)
i am not too familiar with Cluster hops but their flavor profile did not match my goals so i chose Magnum for bittering since it does not impart a strong flavor profile, again allowing the subtle honey notes to come through, then cascade for aroma. I feel the fruity/sweet notes of cascade will accentuate the honey, and is pretty common in most colorado beers from what i have found.
Originally hoped to do a yeast starter but my schedule won't allow so just going to hope for the best and pitch straight from the tube on brew day, which should be fine. In the future if i make this again i will make a starter to maximize my potential.
My hope is that the flavor profile will be simple enough to be able to taste light forward notes of honey, subtle underlying notes of coffee, and a chocolate finish. Should have a creamy mouthfeel but otherwise light. |

steep grain as suggested on pack - and adding steeping grains into boil at 30mins. boil kettle set aside and add grains for 20 mins to steep then add to boil. Boiled kettle then poured into bowl at 7.5mins and let sit till 10mins then added grains for 20 then added to boil.
Boiling 5 litres of water as steeping grains in 1 litre to give 6 litres then adding 1litre of cold at fermenting total
Add hops as schedule. weighed out and leaving on side. Hoping non of the smell, flavour is lost as out in the elements. Vic secret smells outrageous! Amarillo hops is in a pack as finishing hops and using as suggested. Place in a cup of boiling water and let stand for 10mins then add to the fermentor. adding liquid and bag to fermentor. (not hopback)
Note let fermenter cool for 10 before adding vic secret then changed ice and water to cool further for 10.
Let cool for a further 10 mins while finishing hops were sitting in cup water before adding to fermenter. Amarillo hops in tea bag
added 2 litres of cold water to fermenter to get to 6 litres
waited 10mins to pitch yeast as first reading at 22 degrees. Pitched yeast at approx 20 d and shook like f**k. Done
Date 06/09/17
After 6 days fermenting yeast has really slowed down. Going to rack half off and dry hop with vic secret (adding hops first then racking onto, and dry hop in the primary with 20 g wai-iti. Also going to bottle one beer now to see how it tastes. Shook both fermentors a little to swirl hops about.
After racking probably only got 2.5litre in both vessels left inc one bottled beer.
