Notes: Special Instructions / Notes:
Always a good idea to pitch at a generous rate. I typically grow up a stirred starter, though I have pitched this beer right from the Activator pack with good results. Oxygenating the wort is also a must.

Notes: Double Decoction:

*Note: Pilsner Urquell uses a triple decoction method with an initial acid rest, but I use well enough modified malts and correct for pH already so the first of three decoctions is unnecessary. The decoction measurements below are ones I developed for an electric system and err on the side of caution, so they are the lower amounts needed to potentially reach the next temperature step and direct heat can be applied to compensate.*

Perform a protein rest at 125F for 15min, then pull off slightly less than 1/3 (1.16gal/4.4L) of the thickest mash and place it in a separate pot. Bring the pot slowly up to 158F and hold for 15min, then slowly bring it up to a boil and proceed to boil for 10min. Stir often so the grains do not burn, but try to allow some 'browning' to help darken the colour and enhance the flavour/aroma profiles. Add the decoction back to the 125F mash, little by little, aiming for a beta rest temperature of 148F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. After this has finished, pull off roughly 1/6 (0.7gal/2.6L) of the thickest mash a second time and place it in the separate pot. Slowly bring the pot up to a boil and continue to boil for 10min. Add the second decoction back to the mash, little by little, aiming for an alpha rest temperature of 158F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. Once this rest has finished, raise the temperature up to a mash out rest of 167F and hold for 10min. After the decoctions and mash out are finished proceed to sparge/lauter as usual.

No Decoction:

Instead of the labour intensive double decoction mash schedule you could:

- Substitute some of the pilsner malt for vienna and/or munich to add colour and depth.
- Include some melanoidin malt for a slight decoction 'feel'.
- Add some carapils malt (or your preferred alternative) for improved head retention.
- After which, just carry out a temperature/infusion mash schedule based on your preferences.

**This beer won a national silver medal at the Saskatoon Headhunters Competition (2017) and has consistently scored 40's at other national competitions.

***With the regular 3.5%AA Saaz the hop additions are 1.5oz @ 90min, 2oz @ 20min, 1oz @ 10min, 1oz @ 0min.

Notes: Our take on a traditional "West Coast" style pale ale.

Mash schedule:

-Strike-In w/ 3.9 gal at 165 F (153 F sacch rest for 60 min)
-Mash-out at 168 F and sparge with 2.5 gal to collect 6.5 gal

5/10/15: Brew day for this one. Originally going to make a new version of Steve's Amber Ale using French ale yeast and a different hop bill but our yeast isn't in yet so we fixed this nice, hoppy APA's recipe up for today. Seems simple enough.

Brewing was fairly successful as far as hitting mash temps and what not. Good crush on the grain, only one last-minute substitution in the LHBS subbing honey malt for carafoam.

Yield was a bit low because we miscalculated strikewater and forgot absorption. Tried to compensate by thinning the mash 30 mins in with hot water. Seemed to work fine, actually. Gravity was a bit high after sparging and boil, so we diluted with .79gal boiled/cooled water before adding yeast. Ferm started the next night going hard.

5-14-15: adding dry hopping 8:30pm

5/30/15: FINALLY finished fermenting... has been dry-hopping for a couple weeks and we actually moved it to a warmer place to finish the primary ferm as the krausen still had not died down after a couple weeks. Finished at 1.010 (supposed to be 1.012, so that's an acceptable difference to us; slightly, slightly stronger but still in APA range at ~5.5% ABV), sample we took has a nice nose of pine, guava and apricot. Nice medium-heavy body for the style thanks to the addition of oats. Bottling maybe tonight, but may leave it in for another week. Don't think we'll do a secondary as it was fairly clear.

6/6/15: About to bottle this one now.

8/15/15: Kinda forgot to update on this one, but we've been damn busy doing all sorts of other recipes. Anyway, this rules after a couple months of conditioning. Very tropical and citrusy aroma. Papaya, guava, peach and other stone fruit, balanced bitterness. Pine seems to have faded and the Citra and Cascade are really taking hold. Pours a nice golden color with a few fingers of solid white head that dissipates to a finger or so after a few minutes. Body could be a bit thicker, so we're going to change the recipe to double the oats. We'll take a second look at the hop schedule if we brew this again, as well, but honestly it seems pretty solid so I'm not sure it needs much tweaking in that realm. It's a nice combo, really drinkable and is aging very solidly. Until next time.
