Notes: Brewed this in May 2016, and was quite happy with it. Quite bitter, but it works well with the warmth from the alcohol. The combination of Mandarina and Saaz hops worked quite well; mellow mandarin/citrus against a backdrop of "traditional" European hop flavor.

Notes: This is a sweet/dessert mead of Polish origin.
Trójniak: 1:2 (12-15%) - age 1-year min.
Dwójniak: 1:1 (15-18%) - age 2-year min. ****
Półtorak: 2:1 (15-18%) - age 3-year min.

Note the program has some quirks with step additions of fermentables. Total water & honey is 1.5 gallons (each). Primary will START at 2.3 gallons. Toggle the late addition fermentables to see what's happening.

Step additions:
Step 1: Starting SG target ~ 1.10 (with nutrients and aeration).
Step 2: Primary ferment until SG reduces to 1.07-1.08, add 2nd nutrient addition (Fermaid O), 2# honey, and aeration.
Step 3: Primary ferment for 1-2 days (SG back to 1.07-1.08). Add 2# honey and aerate.
Step 4: Primary fermenter until dry. Airlock at SG 1.03.
Step 5: Final honey addition (4#). This is not expected to ferment.
Secondary: Acid adjustment not expected to be necessary, but target is 3.2 (ish).

Bulk age in secondary in a 3-gallon carboy with airlock. Bottle in 6 months.

Fortifying notes (this is TBD and here for reference)
To increase abv to 20% for 3 gallons:
@15% add: 0.5 (1/2) gal 100 proof spirit
@16% add: 0.4 (2/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@17% add: 0.3 (1.5/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@18% add: 0.2 (1/5) gal 100 proof spirit
@19% add: 0.1 (0.5/5) gal 100 proof spirit

Notes: Lower steep/mash temp (148-150) should get you a lower dryer gravity

Add belgian candi syrup before the boil, taking kettle off heat. Another clone i read used D-180.

Add DME just before boil to avoid boil over.

Yeast Temps: Style suggests starting an abbey yeast at 64f up to 68f for 48hrs to minimize fusels. At 1/3 sugar break move it to 74-78f. The yeasts could increase to these temps on its own also. This is something I will attempt by moving out of my basement to warmer rooms at about 1.046 gravity or sooner. Update: Mine took about 4 days to hit 1/3 then I moved it to a 70f room.

Wyeast 1762 is supposed to be the Rochefort Yeast. White Labs WLP540 is also Rochefort. Other alternatives; Wyeast 3787 or 1214

Mount Hood is an Alternate for Hersbrucker hops with a higher AA. Reduce by about half. From .5oz to .2 oz. You could instead remove the 60min Styrian. This would keep the IBUs from overpowering the style.

Take note of higher priming sugar. Style suggests higher volume. 2.5-3 vols

Bottle condition recommendations are longer. Minimum 6 weeks, but better at 2 months.

Update: Fermentation smells like banana about 7 days in and after I had moved it to a 72f room.

Update!: This recipe works! It taste near close to a proper Trappist Rochefort. After 6 weeks aged I smell banana, its strong but sweet covers it up, its a perfect dry. Letting it age took the edge off.

Notes: Make yeast starter at least 1 day prior to pitching.

Do a single-infusion mash for 60 minutes at 152°F (67°C). Boil for 60 minutes following the kettle hops schedule.

Pitch the yeast at 65°F (18°C) and ramp the temperature up to 68°F (20°C) over 3 days. Bring the temperature up to the low 70s Fahrenheit (low 20s Celsius) to complete primary fermentation, adding the first dry hops when the gravity reaches 1.020.

Primary dry-hop addition at 1.022

Rack into secondary onto the apricot puree for 1 week. Add the second dry hops for the last 4 days in secondary.

CHANGED FROM ORIGINAL RECIPE (CHANGE BACK IF NOT AS GOOD) 1. YEAST STRAIN FROM WHITE LABS PACIFIC ALE YEAST (WLP041) TO WHITE LABS BELGIAN STRONG ALE (WLP545) TO INCREASE ABV. 2. INCREASED FIRST WARRIOR ADDITION BY .5 OZ TO INCREASE IBU.

Notes: Recipe modified from an all-grain recipe found on the Brewtoad website, published by nickgrein.

https://www.brewtoad.com/recipes/spaten-oktoberfest-1

The motivation is to clone the Spaten Oktoberfest, one of my first favorite beers almost 20 yrs ago, in the incipient phase of my beer obsession.

This is my first lager.
