Notes: I used Marris Otter LME
Fermentation temperature was optimal for the first 3 days of fermentation. Then we had a heat wave and day time temps rose to into the 80's F. Used freezer packs and a swap cooler to keep fermenter temperatures 76-78 F.
Racked to secondary on day 7 and bottled on day 35 (4 weeks in secondary).
This is a malty, easy drinking game day ale; just enough hops to produce a slight twang and low ABV so you can enjoy more many while still making it through the 4th quarter and the post-game party. |

Notes: Sierra Nevada Clone, with a touch of smoke and chocolate ...
Brewed 04/28/12. Accidentally overshot temperature to 190 deg F. on seeping cycle. All other brewing functions normal. Pitched hydrated yeast at 68 deg F. and dry hopped in the primary.
O.G. was 1.057 as averaged between the two buckets. Fermented four days and racked to secondary on 05/02/12. Fermentation was complete five days later. Allowed to settle until 5/15, but some cloudiness persisted, I assume caused by excess proteins released when the seeping water got too hot. Bottled nine six-packs on 5/15 with carbonation drops. Kegged and force carbonated the remainder. Final gravity was 1.011 as corrected for alcohol with the More Beer spreadsheet. Taste is excellent ... fruity, with a nice malt-hop balance and distinct hop nose. The smoked malt rounds out the flavor, without overpowering the base malt, giving the beer a unique character that is hard to describe. I may be able to elaborate on that as I sample it more.
The color is spot on, but a little cloudier than I was hoping. Next batch I will watch the seep temps a bit closer and use some Irish Moss to clear it up a bit. Overall, a very nice and VERY drinkable ale. |

Lalvin 71B two packs
1.25 gallon local orange blossom honey
Well water
Pitch at 60F
Aerate with O2 for 20 seconds. Added 1/2 nutrient in one cup water
staggered nutrient every other day to complete additions.
fermenting at 62F
August 21- airlock still showing activity ~ 3 bubbles per minute
Sept 20 SG = 1.022. No airlock activity. Taste is still very sweet. strong alcohol notes. Needs more time. After opening bucket, flooded it with CO2 prior to reclosure
Oct 11. SG = 1.020 transfered ~ 2 g to cabroy containing 3 # raspberry puree
remainder transfered to secondary. Still too sweet.
1/7/17 The raspberry batch SG dropped to 1.010 but still tasted too sweet (other wise good!)
The main batch was about 1.018 and too sweet. (otherwise good) Made a 100 mL slurry of champagne yeast and added ca65 mL to the big batch and 35 mL to the raspberry batch.
2/24/17 tested the raspberry mead: SG = 1.004 Tastes good! Bottle time! CAP label M2
4/1/17 The main batch is stuck at 1.018. Taste is good. Bottled. 13.7% ABV cap label is M1 |

Notes: First class Brewing Project done with Extract recipe created by students on February 17,2018 as part of the Into to Brewing class, in the Brewing Sciences program at Trociare College in Williamsville,NY under direction of Dr. Brian Barrow PhD.
The class developed a recipe on the spot with what a set DME base, and a table full of other steepable specialty grains and hops. After they picked a style directions the class worked together on deciding what grains would give them the desired adjunct characters they were looking for and determined how much to use in a matter of minutes also pairing the hops that would best accent the beer in bittering and aroma. Dr. Barrows then informed them that they were going to split that beer in the end into 2 batches and pitch a different WhiteLabs Yeast in each (WLP001 &WLP530), along with the late addition of Belgian Candy syrup D-180 to the fermentor containing the WLP530 Abbey Yeast. To show how two beers with the same base can be affected with simple additions and simply changing the yeast. This is the first of hopefully many beers this class does together at Trocaire College in the Brewing Sciences Department. |
