ALMOST a yuengling ale clone, would bump IBU just a tad for a house beer, maybe add more caramel/crystal for an alt.

Notes: Steps

Take yeast out of fridge 3 hours before pitching.

Bring the wort to 140 degrees, add 5g salt and 1g coriander, and then turn the heat off (heat for 5-15 minutes).

Transfer a portion of the wort to a starter flask.
Pitch WLP644 Trois when temp is at 70°.

Leave remaining wort in kettle.
Adjust PH ~4.2 to limit growth Clostridium butyricum and other potential off-flavor bacteria. Add 2 ml of lactic acid.
Chill the wort down to 95°.
Add 5 oz of Goodbelly Mango drink.
Cover with blankets.
Allow it to sour for 24 hours. No external heating is required.
Target PH: 3.6 - 3.8

After the souring phase, heat to kill the Lactobacillus before adding the WLP644 Trois for 5-15 minutes at 140 degrees.
Chill the Lactobacillus wort down to ~70°F and pitch WLP644 Trois.

After 2 weeks a stable gravity should be reached.
Rack or transfer off as normal to bottles or a keg.

Goodbelly: 8oz per 5 gallons = 1.6oz per gallon X 3 gallons = 4.8 oz (5 oz)
Salt: 0.5oz per gallon - 0.0625 per gallon X 3 gallons = 0.1875oz (5.315g)
Corriander: 1oz per gallon = 0.125 per gallon X 3 gallons = 0.375 (10g) - cut by 50% to 5g
Lactic acid: Using 1 mL of 88% lactic acid per .1 shift in pH for 5 gallons of wort is a good starting measurement. As an example, say that 5 gallons of wort has a pH of 5.0 just before pitching the Lactobacillus culture. Begin by adding 5 mL (1 US teaspoon) of food grade lactic acid to the wort for a target of ~4.4 pH.

Notes: Boil water first to deoxygenate, add maltodextrin and 1 oz nutrient blend (to sanitize), cool to 170, add flaked (quick) oats, hold for 30 minutes (this supposedly locks in starches for mouthfeel, but they may be fermentable by the Brett later on... so if nothing else, it will just give them more food for the funk. I used a bag, and squeezed when done... lots of gooey goodness came out!), then cool to 100 F. Add honey and mix until dissolved well. Measure pH if able, and add 88% lactic acid to adjust pH down to ~4.5 (not required, but helps against unwanted organism contamination), and then pitch one shot of Goodbelly (lacto plantarum). Make sacc yeast starter, oxygenating and adding 1/2 oz yeast nutrient.

Let sit for 24-48 hrs (to taste, or pH reading, if you're looking for a specific level). Can boil now to kill lacto and lock in sour level (but boiling will also volalitlize some honey aromatics, so I don't plan on doing it), or just pitch sacc if you don't mind it getting more sour over time (I'd only go 24 hrs if so). Add 1/4 oz yeast nutrient when pitching sacc. Ferment temp controlled at 64-5 for first 3-4 days, degassing each day, then can warm up to room temp to finish attenuation, adding last 1/4 nutrient then. After a week or so (doesn't need to be completely dry yet), add Brett(s), and let it do its thing for a couple months...

Dry hop, or add fruit to, all or a portion, if desired, before bottling. Get creative with complementary flavors!

Notes: Brewed during the COVID-19 Virus Pandemic of 2020.

Yeast Starter: (1-2 days ahead)
Break the yeast packet.
When the packet has expanded, mix 1/2 cup of malt extract into 2 cups of water (or double this in a gallon jug).
Bring to boil - simmer for 10 mins. Add ¼ teaspoon of yeast nutrient.
Cool to 80 F - pour into sterile 2 qt. jar. Add yeast and cover with aluminum foil.
Shake as often as possible (seriously, multiple times a day!)

Wort:
Bring 2 gallons of water 160F. Add grains and steep for 25 mins.
Turn off heat. Add all sugars. Add water or extract to reach target gravity. Check gravity with a refractometer.
Bring to boil and add bittering hops.
Boil for 45 mins. and then add the aroma hops, 1 tsp. of Irish Moss and ½ tsp. yeast nutrient. At this time place the wort chiller in the brew pot to sterilize.
After 60 mins., remove from heat.
Begin to force cool.
Cool to 80F, and add to cool water in fermenter. Take readings.
Aerate well and pitch yeast.
Ferment for 1 week between 64-72F.
Sanitize can of cherry puree. Pour cherry puree into secondary bucket and transfer beer. Stir occasionally with a sterilized spoon.
Leave in secondary for 2 weeks. Take readings.
Bottle with priming sugar. Drink in 2-4 weeks.

Notes: Day 1:
1) Heat up ~5 gallons of hot water.
1a) Do the Melanoid Malt / Oats / Pale 2-row as a side batch at its own temperature in a bag. Aim for ~155-160 degrees for an hour.
2) Add extracts and bring to boil. (add Melanoid Mix malt here) -- No need to boil for long, just enough to get the malt sterilized.
3) Cool to ~90 degrees and transfer gently to the fermenter (the less oxygen the better at this point).
4) Pitch the Lacto Plantarum Yeast starter.
5) Keep ~90 degrees for 48 hours to lower the ph. (Should drop ph to ~3.4-3.2.)

Day 3:
5) Drain portion of wort (~half) into kettle.
6) Add hops. Boil for 30 minutes.
7) 10mins: Add coriander.
8) 10mins: Add salt.
9) 10mins: Add Irish Moss.
10) 10mins: Add yeast nutrient.
11) Chill to ~80 degrees.
12) Mix back into the fermenter (vigorously, to oxygenate the wort and encourage yeast).
13) Pitch yeast & bacteria culture.*
14) Cool to ~70 and start primary fermentation. Ferment for 6-7 days.

[Day 3 Check-in: Hit the original gravity spot on at 1.056. Taste is slightly sour -- just a bit of mouth puckering happening. But also terribly sweet, so hard to say. The hint of salt seems about right and the overall flavor is about what I was aiming for. Basic fairly malty beer, but with some savory complexity from the coriander and salt. Drying this up will help a lot.]

Day 10:
15) Rack into 2ndary. Leave for ~2-4 weeks, letting the Pedio and Brett get working. If fermentation is still going, let age even longer.
16) optional -- third rack onto some oak chips. Then, age for for a month.

[Day 15 check-in: Racked beer into 2ndary. Let it sit in primary a bit longer than planned, but was fermenting really slowly, so I think that's fine. The gravity is down to 1.020, so coming along nicely, but not done fermenting yet. Goal is 1.011. The taste is much better than previously. Dryer, but with a nice amount of sourness. Maybe not as much as I had hoped for, but it still might sour a tad more as it ages. The flavor is good, much like the Destihl "Here Gose Nothing" that I'm shooting for, just a little less puckeringly sour -- but still really impressive for doing it myself. Good malty flavor, and seems almost dry enough to go but still just a tad sweet. So far, a good clean taste with no off flavors. Saltiness comes through in the mouthfeel, too. Overall, really happy with where it's going. Plan for bottling: Leave to age for 2-3 weeks, then bottle ~4 gallons of it, and rack 1 gallon onto some oak chips and maybe a bit more sugar to revive and age it for longer.]

Day 24-31:
17) Bottle and condition. Age for at least two weeks.

*Yeast Culture: Needs: Lacto, Pedio, Brett, and Sach. The addition of hops will slow down the Lacto, so no need to kill all of it... Prep this a day ahead of time by mixing a sour blend of yeast with DME extract. Get it frothing a bit and going healthy.
