Notes: Clean and Sanitize everything then start!

Invert your sugar by:

Bringing one gallon filtered water or spring water to 180F/82.2C add 10lbs Cane sugar, 1.5 tsp/7.39ml citric acid and mix until dissolved then rest until clear not milky or continue to heat. Bring to boil and hold at 240F/115.6C for 45 minutes.

THEN:
Cool wort to 95F/35C. You can add (12oz/354.88ML frozen 100% no preservative orange juice to aid in reducing Temp) then add to fermenter when close to 95/35C. Add enough water to fermenter until 4.5/17.3L gallon mark is reached. Add 64oz/1.89L of 100% pasteurized lemon juice no preservatives. Aerate wort in fermenter. (I use a submersible hand held mixer that is sanitized) Once bubbles subside take gravity reading, Add yeast packet directly to wort. Airlock and ferment.

Add 16Oz/.47L lemon Juice on day two and the last 16oz/.47L 100% Pasteurized Lemon Juice (no additives) on day 3 of ferment or when you feel the ferment is ending.

(I don't like clarifying agents but there is always an option to make the brew clearer for you if you prefer more than time itself)

Rack and let clear for a week then..

Taste it!

You can back sweeten it here if needed. (I use erythritol then add priming sugar for bottle conditioning) bottle or keg as needed. Great summertime brew my father passed on to me that I have tweaked to modernized.

Notes: FG of a degassed (vacuum) sample of Drakonic is 1.017 which would indicate an approx OG of 1.084 with 8.75% & WL 001 yeast.

Straight from Drake's website...
Malt: American 2-Row Barley, Weyermann Carafa Special 3, Simpsons Caramel Extra Dark, Simpsons Chocolate, Simpsons Roast Barley, Patagonia Crystal 35
Hops: Bittering – Warrior
Yeast: White Labs 001
Original Gravity: 19.9 degrees Plato
Alc/Vol: 8.75%
IBUs: 40

3/16/17 Brew day: actual mash temps performed are above and main mash Ph was 5.55. Batch sparge was 5.68 Ph. Resulting wort was 5 gal at 1.047 OG for a 65.33% efficiency. Final vol 1.5 gal at 1.106. 70 IBUs Following day read 1.75gal at 1.116 so I diluted with boiled RO water to 2.2 gal at 1.092 and 45 IBU's Added DAP nutrient and shook it up well. BTW Nottingham says on the packet that aeration is not required. I just didn't want a stuck ferment on such a big beer, haven't had one that I recall but I've been brewing 10 years.

3/20/17 Update: The ferment was pretty crazy, luckily it was a small volume in a large container. It tastes sweet but my sample reads 1.014 adjusted which means I have achieved 82% attenuation and 10.2% ABV. Biggest beer I ever made! Planned OG was 1.085 and 40+ IBU's with a BU/GU ratio of .48; I now have a .50 ratio. Not to goal but a good achievement. I would bitter this to 60 IBU's at least if I planned this OG and attenuation.

4/24/17 Update: FG is 1.013 which gives 10.32% ABV. At racking the brew smells somewhat reminiscent of Drakonic but I have little care if it is since it's a different beast. More roast I desire...Lots of booze and some esters present. Can't wait to get my ferm chamber all set up.

Notes: Strike water as always, is mash water needed plus the 2g. of underlayment. Make sure to use the full volume of water when calculating the strike temp!!

Made starter from 3000ml of spring water and .75lb. of DME.

Mashed in OK - shooting for 122, got 124. Other targets good. Sparged for 90 minutes - no stickies, no problems!!

First runnings - 1.063
Last runnings - 1.010
Preboil gravity - 1.041

Boiled 90 minutes and added spices to wort before whirlpool - let sit 10 minutes. Added 3 qts. to bring OG to 1.050. Cooled and into the fermenter - 66 degrees! Collected 11+ g. Pitched yeast immediately and into the fridge at 68. Activity apparent after 16 hours. Kept at 68 for 3 days, up to 70 for one and up to 72 for another. Gravity then at 1.011. Crashed.

Into kegs after another week - tasted fantastic - very wit-like! This one went Very fast. Very refreshing - great daytime summer beer. But near the end it had lost its cloudiness and a little of the good spice flavorings. Drink this one fresh!
