Notes: Changed 200g Carafa III to black patent malt. Probably will affect short term smoothness.
Original recipe called for WLP090 - Super San Diego yeast. Going to try Notty, have heard bad things about high gravity, 20C+ fermentation, going to ferment cold.
Used the yeast cake from a 5L batch for a starter. |

Notes: Steep grains in 2 gallons of filtered water -- heat and maintain 158 degrees for 30 min. Rinse with 1 qt of same temp water.
Add LME -stir to dissolve fully. Add the balance of water and bring to boil. Add hops according to schedule. Chill to at least 78 degrees and pitch yeast. Aerate 20 seconds of pure Oxygen. Ferment at about 67-68 degrees
After 4-5 days add "dry hops" to 2 cups of boiling water and stir into the primary fermentor. After another 5-7 days transfer to secondary, add gelatin to clear. Bottle or keg in another week using 3/4 cup bottling sugar.
Enjoy in another two weeks or so and let me know what you think and any tweaks recommended! |

Notes: First attempt at high gravity brew.
Lucked out and found dry lager yeast at Muskedines.
BeerSmith article notes that high gravity beers require attention to:
-Water required vs mash tun capacity - check
-Yeast (osmotic) shock from high OG requires dry yeast to be hydrated with wort (preferably) before the pitch -
-High OG beers take much longer to ferment, like two months or more - |

Notes: Overall Impression: A low-gravity, bitter, oak-smoked historical central European wheat beer with a clean fermentation profile and no sourness. Highly carbonated, dry, crisp, and refreshing.
Aroma: Low to moderate oak wood smoke is the most prominent aroma component, but it can be subtle and complex. A low spicy, herbal, or floral hop aroma is typically present and should be lower than or equal to the smoke in intensity. Hints of grainy wheat are also detected in the best examples. The aroma is otherwise clean, although light pome fruit esters (especially ripe red apple or pear) are welcome. No acidity. Light sulfur is optional.
Appearance: Pale yellow to gold in color with excellent clarity. A tall, billowy, white, tightly knit head with fantastic retention is distinctive. Murkiness is a fault.
Flavor: Moderately low to medium oak smoke flavor up front, which carries into the finish; the smoke can be more robust in flavor than in aroma. The smoke character is gentle, should not be acrid, and can lend an impression of sweetness. A moderate to solid bitterness is readily evident, which lingers through the finish. The overall balance is toward bitterness. Low but perceptible spicy, herbal, or floral hop flavor. Low grainy wheat character in the background. Light pome fruit esters (red apple or pear) may be present—dry, crisp finish. No sourness.
Mouthfeel: Light in body, with a crisp and dry finish. Carbonation is relatively high and can add a slight carbonic bite or prickly sensation—no alcohol warmth.
Comments: Pronounced in English as “pivo grow-JEES-kee-uh” (meaning: Grodzisk beer) and known as Grätzer (pronounced “GRATE-sir”) in German-speaking countries and some beer literature and traditionally made using a multi-step mash, a long boil (~2 hours), and multiple ale yeast strains. The beer is never filtered, but Isinglass is used to clarify before bottle conditioning and is traditionally served in tall conical glassware to accommodate the vigorous foam stand.
History: It developed as a unique style centuries ago in the Polish city of Grodzisk (known as Grätz when ruled by Prussia and Germany). In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, its fame and popularity rapidly extended to other parts of the world. Regular commercial production declined after WWII and ceased in the 1990s. This style description describes the traditional version during its period of incredible popularity.
Characteristic Ingredients: Oak-smoked wheat malt, which has a less intense smoke character than German Rauchmalz, and a drier, crisper, leaner quality – a smoky bacon or ham flavor is inappropriate—traditional Polish, Czech, or German hops. Moderate hardness sulfate water. Clean, attenuative ale yeast; Weizen yeast inappropriate.
Style Comparison: Similar in strength to a Berliner Weisse, but never sour and much more bitter. It has a smoked character but is less intense than in a Rauchbier. It has lower gravity than a Lichtenhainer but is more bitter and not sour. It's more bitter than a Gose, but no salt and spices.
Vital Statistics: OG: 1.028 – 1.032
IBUs: 20 – 35 FG: 1.006 – 1.012
SRM: 3 – 6 ABV: 2.5 – 3.3%
