Notes: ==============================
3/14/2022
repurposing for huell melon pale ale. with updated water profile results from ward, my water profile for this beer now looks a bit out of wack by the numbers but it worked well for the last beer so im just going to roll with it for now until i have time to figure out how to fix it.
==============================
2/8/2022
This lutra is taking forever. Tonight its 10 brix which is like 1026 and 4.6%. Tastes sweet. Still bubbling smh
==============================
2/3/2022
measured 1060 OG i think i got more than 5.5 gallons. i accidentally grained into my entire volume of hot liquor. after mash i sparged a little with about 1.5 or 2 gallons of cold water. pre boil vol was like 8.5 gallons
==============================
2/1/2022
revamping summer madness for this beer which will feature mighty axe julius hops instead of cascade. going with lutra again.
==============================
9/13/2021
last week measured 1013 FG for 4.8%abv. but it does not taste that light. nice body and carapils flavor, also the dry hop was faint but nice. could maybe use more dry hop but in the interest of keeping it light and cheap and not-session-ipa, i think its perfect just like this.
==============================
9/1/2021 - brew day
Not too confident on 70% eff dropping to 60, bumping 2row from 975 to 1150. Should do better with water but i think I'm gonna use tap and leave out acid
==============================
7/22/2021
Just had Port City Essential Pale Ale recently which has to be the tastiest pale ale on the planet...at very least it is one of my absolute favorite beers. this time it strikes me that it has a lot of not bitter hop flavor and decent backbone while still being 5.5%.
Their website says 35ibu so im knocking down the warrior contribution from 0.75 to 0.4oz. Adding more cascade in the flameout and dry hop (1oz-->2oz)
consider going 3oz in dry hop. maybe some pilsner malt or something else to add more malt backbone. vienna? but the carapils might be fine. at least to start.
need to review water. would like to use tap and adjust but unsure rn, been having off mash pH readings and low efficiency.

Notes: Mash and boil as usual here, maybe making an addition of chloride to your mash water if your sulfates are particularly high; you want a definite advantage for the chlorides in this style to limit the sharpness of the bittering. The short version is if you have particularly hard water, consider diluting with distilled/RO water and adjusting from there (or letting it ride in its “cut” form with no further adjustment).
In fermentation, go a little warmer than you ordinarily would—I like 55°F (13°C). It will produce a bit more fermentation character in the form of a lick of diacetyl and a bit of sulfur, but both will “work” with your malts and hops and will also trip lots of sense memory triggers for “lager” in your brain! Give this a solid two weeks to finish up primary fermentation, then give it another week just to be sure. Crash, carbonate to 2–2.5 volumes, and you’re good to go.

United Kingdom - Crystal 45L was changed out to US Crystal 40 (Phantom).
American Munich Light 10L was changed out to Best Malz (German) Munich Malt (Phantom).
Changed first addition hop from 0.9 to 1.0 oz.
Phantom didn't have WLP810 in stock so San Francisco WLP840 American Lager was used as substitute!
Started with 8.00 gallons of water. Too much water. 13.5 pds of grain did not seem to absorb as much after sparging. had to boil extra half hours to get it down to 5.5 gals final amount. 8.00 gallons will be the max. Changed again. End of Brew: left with 5 gallons. Had to add 1/2 gallons for 5.50.
♦♦ Use 3 Vials of San Francisco Lager Yeast WLP810 @ 62° CHANGE! 2 vials of WLP840 American Ale Yeast will be used.
WLP810 San Francisco Lager Yeast.
This yeast is used to produce the "California Common" style beer. A unique lager strain which has the ability to ferment up to 65 degrees while retaining lager characteristics. Can also be fermented down to 50 degrees for production of marzens, pilsners and other style lagers.
Optimum Ferment Temp. 58-65°F (14-18°C)
WLP840 American Lager This yeast is used to produce American style lagers. Dry and clean with a very slight apple fruitiness. Sulfur and diacetyl production is minimal. Attenuation: 75-80% Flocculation: Medium Optimum Fermentation Temperature: 50-55°F Alcohol Tolerance: Medium

♦ Northern Brewer Hops - Origin and Description
Northern Brewer Hops is an England native who is seeing its days live out mainly in Germany and the U.S. There is a separate U.S. hops variety that was bred in the United States that has similar properties. This dual use hops had a higher alpha acid content for the time, however super alphas have doubled, even tripled the content since back in the day. With that said Northern Brewer hops grown in Germany, sometimes referred to as Hallertau Northern Brewer if grown in the region, has made its mark and is used throughout beer styles such as European Ales, Lagers, and Pilsners. It is also synonymous with steam beers as in Anchor Steam.
Northern Brewer hops is used for both bittering and aroma additions in the kettle. It has an alpha acid content of 7.0%-10.0% and is a well rounded variety. The bitterness is moderate and the aroma comes off as plump. As one of Germany's main high alpha hops, Northern Brewer is both versatile yet refined. |
