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. |

Notes: Using a 9L keg: Heat keg up with a boiling starsan water mix and drain. Add 1kg of either Dry spray malt extract or 1.1L of heated liquid malt extract (hot as you can get it). Add 1L of hot fresh boiling water to DSME or 2L of hot fresh boiling water to Liquid malt. Add hops, sugar and water treatment, yeast nutrient. Shake to mix. Let stand at near boiling temp for 5 mins. Longer if you want more bitterness. Top up water to 8L. Oxygenate. Allow to cool to fermenting temp. Add yeast. Seal keg. Shake, add spunding valve. Ferment as required.
You could add the hops to the boiling water prior to adding.
Ive used bottled water in this recipe.
Keg will need floating dip tube to OUT post.
ACTUAL METHOD USED.
Due to the dip tube rattling inside the keg I mixed and boiled the bottled water and malt extract in a sauce pan. First hops in the boil for 8 mins. Second hop in the keg prior to sealing at 15c. You could dry hop day 2 or 3 for biotransformation, whatever that is!!. Im nit very hopping so will go to 20psi.
Ferment, cold crash and serve from the keg as above.
7L of Carrick Glen Mineral water used.
Brewed on 20/09/22: Cooled overnight before adding final hops and yeast. Day 15 appeared to have finished fermenting. Crash cooled on 07/10/22 Day 17.
By 13/10/22 it had cleared on its own without any finings or getting, Day 23.
Excellent head, slight yellow colour. Distinctive strong Lime Aroma with Lime and sherbet type aroma. A bit sweet, slight toffee and sherbet flavour. A very nice beer for such minimum effort. Certainly will repeat.
Ive since done a shake and Brew IPA in 19L keg. Turned out 6.43% and had a very strong flavour with a slight, alcohol flavour. |
