Finally, the recipe!
03 - Ginger ale in glass-FThis will yield 5 gallons of medium-flavored alcoholic ginger ale with an ABV of 6.4%. For a lighter, crisper ginger ale (like alcoholic Canada Dry) use about 2/3 of the ginger and limes recommended below.
For a fuller “craft” ginger ale flavor, use about 1-1/2 times as much ginger and citrus.
The recipe below takes 3-4 weeks from brew day to bottle. Primary fermentation will be done long before that – properly cared-for yeast make short work of those simple sugars – but as with beer, extra time will give the yeast time to clean up after themselves.
Ingredients:
• 2 lbs peeled, diced ginger root
• 5 lbs organic cane sugar
• 5 limes (zest and juice)
• Water to make 5 gallons
• Yeast nutrient (dose per manufacturer instructions)
• 1 packet S-04 yeast
Boil 2.5 gallons of water, then remove from heat. Stir in sugar and yeast nutrient until well dissolved. Once the sugar is dissolved add the ginger root, lime zest, and lime juice. Steep for 15 minutes. Strain and pour the mixture into primary fermenter and top off to 5 gallons. OG should be about 1.045. Aerate and pitch S-04 yeast. After 2 weeks, you should have reached a FG of around 0.996 and you’re ready to backsweeten. You’ll need:
• 2 cups of water
• 3 oz peeled, diced ginger root
• 4 oz diced crystallized ginger
• 3 cups granulated Splenda (for baking)
Boil the water, then remove from heat. Stir in sweetener until dissolved, then add both forms of ginger and steep for 5 minutes. Strain and add directly to the fermenter, or to a sanitized carboy and then rack the ginger ale onto it.
Let the ginger ale rest for 1-2 more weeks for the flavors to marry and mellow. Then rack to a bottling bucket with priming sugar, following usual beer bottling procedures. Target 2.5 volumes of carbonation.
Give the yeast at least 3 weeks to carbonate in the bottle

Notes: Slightly darker than color prediction, not much.
Green tasting - 2 weeks - malty, sweet; chocolate; clean, but with residual; great hops - herbal, earthy, decent bitter; yeast is clean, but present with slight fruit (pitched @ 72 and kept room temp for early fermentation...probably in the mid 70s for at least the first 24-48)
3 weeks - very nice. Dry, roasty finish. Perfect hops- right bitter with spice/floral/fruit that goes with the yeast - definitely fruit from the yeast. Slight "ash-tray" porter/stout quality. Seems a little British. |

Notes: Bright citrus flavors and a light, silky mouthfeel reminiscent of sunny days by the beach make this beer an instant Summer classic.
Noble German hops early in the boil and sweet orange peel make this beer fruity and balanced. The flaked grains in the grist form a thick, creamy head that persists through the entire glass.
A light haze should be present. If you want a clearer beer may use whirlfloc tablet for fining, last 5 minutes of boil.
=====================================================
- Add all steeping grains to steeping bag and steep as per your
preferred steeping method. Generally, 150*-160* F for 30
minutes.
- Remove grains, (sparge with 170*F water, 8 Oz.) bring back to
boil then turn off heat, and add extract.
Once extract is amply mixed, bring back to a boil.
- Once water comes to a boil, add bittering hops and start the 60
minute clock.
- After flame out cool wort to 80*-85* F, transfer to fermenter &
add cool/cold water to bring total volume to 5.1 gals. ( the
addition of cool water should bring Temp down to pitching Temp
(68* F)
- After Fermentation.... let sit on trub for 1 week then bottle.
- Add 1 Sugar Fizz Drop per 12 oz bottle when bottling.
- Condition in bottle for 3-5 weeks, timing is somewhat flexiable.

Notes: I steeped the grains in 5L of water at 67 degrees Celsius for 30mins. After that I added the DME and brought to the boil.
The first hop addition went in once boiling started then 45mins later the second addition was added for 15mins.
The LME was added to the fermenter then the hot wort was poured on top. Cold water was added to the fermenter to top up to 20L.
Yeast was added at 16 degrees celsius.
Fermented for two and a half weeks due to me being away for work reasons. |
