Notes: Mash and Sparge: Use a simple single infusion mash. The wheat malt will provide plenty of body even though this is a low-OG beer. If you are an extract brewer, you can make the calculations for the jump to light speed and skip ahead.
Boil the Wort: Boil for 15 minutes, but wait to add hops. Hops inhibit Lactobacillus, which we need for souring.
Lower the pH: It's a good idea to lower the wort pH to 4.5. The lower pH helps prevent other bacteria or wild yeast from ruining the batch. You can use lactic acid, phosphoric acid, or even acid malt. 10ml of Lactic acid will get you there. Since we are after a lactic profile, it makes sense.
Fermentation Stage One: Cool the wort and start fermentation with Lactobacillus only. Keep it warm, around 112-115°F (44-46°C). You could use an electric blanket or FermWrap heater to maintain the temperature. Using one of the many electric mash kettle options, you can program the unit to hold that temperature, depending on your model.
Monitor pH: Check the pH every 12 hours. When it reaches 3.6-3.8, it's ready for the next stage.
Boil Again and Hop: Boil the wort again, this time for 60, and add a small amount of hops. Boiling kills the Lactobacillus and stops further souring. 10 IBU’s is a good start. Since hops will no longer impact lactic acid formation, who am I to judge if you want a hoppy sour?
Fermentation Stage Two: Aerate the beer and add your conventional ale yeast. Let it ferment out, then bottle or keg as usual.

Notes: Brew date: 28-Apr2019
During the steeping grains the temp got up to about 175F ish (bc I forgot to monitor temp) so i removed flame and temp slowly dropped during the 20min to 150F ish
also, noticed lots of foam during the boil after adding the 20 and 2min hop additions (had to stir and regulate flame as to not boil over
OG: 1.062
lots of foam when added to ferment or from using the strainer so i didn’t airate to much.
Airlock bubbles started within the first 6hrs (temp was 70F) and went strong for about 1 day
Temp increased to about 72F on day 2 bubbling still going but slowed somewhat (bubble about every few seconds)
After about a week Temp settled around 66F and maintained for 3 weeks 4 days
Brought fermenter up from basement 1 day before bottling on 23-May, Temp 68-70F
24-May-2019
Primed with 4.6 oz of dextrose in 2 cups water
FG= 1.012
Abv: 6.6%
Taste:
very bitter, not in a bad way though. It’s good but next time maybe minus the 60 min addition and add a dry hop to make it more juicy |
