| Notes: Brewed 4/26/15. Strike water was about 170/171F. Hit about 153F on the dough in and I recirculated about 1.5 gal to get it down to 152F. pH was 5.1 which is way lower than the predicted 5.5 in brew'n water. Not sure why that might be but the acid malt probably wasn't that necessary. Kettle efficiency is 81% which is a little lower than normal. Boil was pretty vigerous and I ended up with probably about 5.5gals in the fermenter. Could have slowed it or collected about 8.5gals in the kettle. Topped off with a little bit of water. Efficiency was pretty good and within normal range. Pitching temp was a little high about 71F so I pitched and cooled it down to 67F. 4/27 beer has been sitting at 67F with icing throughout the day. 4/28 temp has been about 67/68 all day. 4/29 temp had drifted up to about 69F so I let it stay there. Dry Hopped 5/8/15. Kegged 5/17/14. Ended up dry hopping for a bit longer than the planned 7 days. |

Notes: They call for Abbey Ale Yeast in the first fermentation. Gnome is what I had on hand.
I had not done an extract beer (not 5 gallon batch) for quite some time. I overshot my volume by a fair amount as a result.
The beer is aging on Currants and Barrel chunks.
3 month check: Mild acidity (4.85pH) and a plummy sourness. Good character. Adding Oak. |

Notes: Mash at 158 for 30 minutes. Recirculate mash for 10 minutes then sparge.
Boil for 90 mins, with first hops in at 60. Cool to 67 then aerate for 2 minutes. Let fermentation temp rise to 72 after 5 days.
Cold crash and carbonate to 2.2.
Can add 2-3 oz of Fuggles at Day 5 and leave in for 2-4 days.
Gold Medal in 2022 NHA for Pale British Beer, 9B.
First brewed 9/18/22. Pre boils gravity was 1048 and post boil 1055! So 80% efficiency. Boiled 90 mins and had 5.1 gallons remaining so added .4 gallons distilled water to get to 5.5 gallons.
Used hop spider which retained some liquid with 6.5 oz of hops! That brought gravity down to 1050.
After 24 hours gravity was 1028 with temp at a constant 67f.
Second brew 3/31/24.
Followed schedule, inc. 1 tsp of gypsum and 1 tbsp of 10% phosphoric acid. Measured pH during boil and it was 4.8 pre sparge, and 4.88 post sparge. Added 1/2 tsp chalk just before boil to try and increase it.
Gravity at the start of boil was 1044. Boiled for close to 2 hours by mistake. As a result, had to add 3 pints of distilled water to bring the quantity close to 5.5 gallons.
Chilled to 67 then moved to fermenter. Gravity was 1054, so higher than planned (79% efficiency vs. 73% before). Added yeast and just used an airlock - no temp control.
Temp rose to 71 after 24 hours and gravity fell quickly to 1034. After 64 hours it was 1024. Gravity then stopped at 1023 and remained there for 3 days. I shook the fermenter to stir the yeast but no change. I then added a pack of rehydrated US05 to try and lower gravity but no difference.
Put into cask after 13 days of primary. FG was 1023, so poor attenuation but likely due to high mash temp. Amazing clarity as it transferred and taste was distinctive - toffee, gentle rolling bitterness, toast, and soft spices. Very drinkable from the fermenter!
