Notes: Pilsen LME added for final 15 minutes. Original gravity actually 1.041 at 60F. 4/11/12 Lagered since 3/2 and this one is excellent. Good mouthfeel, malt and hops nicely balanced, color only slightly darker than I had hoped. |

Notes: Not nearly enough water. Used Brooklyn brewing book recipe. Started with 6.5 quarts. Should have had more because I increased the grain by 25% because I decided to do no sparge. Followed recipe except added some Amarillo hops I had laying around for a big aroma.

Imprint Beer Co.’s Black Forest Cake Stout clone
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.100 FG = 1.028
IBU = 65 SRM = 69 ABV = 9.6%
Ingredients
15.5 lbs. (7 kg) American 2-row pale malt
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Munich malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) Carafoam® malt
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British chocolate malt (350 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) British crystal malt (65 °L)
1 lb. (0.45 kg) roasted barley
12 oz. (0.34 kg) Carafa® Special III
3 lb. (1.4 kg) Vintner’s Harvest sweet cherry puree
16 AAU Magnum hops (90 min.) (1 oz./28 g at 16% alpha acids)
1.5 lbs. (0.68 kg) Cholaca liquid cacao (original flavor) or 12 oz. (0.34 kg) toasted Ecuadorian cacao nibs
5 Madagascar vanilla beans
Wyeast 1968 (London ESB) or White Labs WLP002 (English Ale) or Lallemand London ESB English-Style Ale yeast
2⁄3 cup corn sugar (if priming)
Step by step
Several days before brewday, scrape open and cut the 5 vanilla beans into 1-inch (2.5-cm) segments and soak in vodka or Bourbon until ready to add to the secondary.
Mill the grains and mix with 6.8 gallons (25.7 L) of 167 °F (75 °C) strike water to reach a mash temperature of 155 °F (68 °C). Hold this temperature for 60 minutes. If you have soft water, you may want to hold off on adding the roasted grains and British crystal malts until the final 15 minutes of the mash. Vorlauf until your runnings are clear. Sparge the grains with enough water to obtain 7 gallons (26.5 L) of wort. At this point, you may want to test the wort’s gravity. The goal should be to have 7 gallons (26.5 L) of 1.072 SG wort at the start of the boil. You can add dried malt extract (DME) at this point if the SG is low or you may want to wait until the beer is in the fermenter. If you wait to add the DME, be sure to add it after fermentation begins to calm down.
Boil the wort for 90 minutes or more, adding hops according to the ingredient list. After the boil, turn off heat and chill the wort to slightly below fermentation temperature, about 65 °F (18 °C). Aerate the wort with pure oxygen or filtered air and pitch yeast. There should be 5 gallons (19 L) of cooled wort in the fermenter. Be sure to have room in your fermenter for the cherry puree.
Ferment at 66 °F (19 °C) for 10 days (adding the fruit puree on day 6), then raise the temperature to 70 °F (21 °C) for 3–4 days. Carefully rack into a secondary vessel containing Cholaca/cacao nibs and vanilla extract, and age to desired taste. Crash the beer to 35 °F (2 °C) for 48 hours. Bottle or keg the beer and carbonate to approximately 2.25 volumes. |

Notes: Joe's Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone.
-Heat up 13 gallons of water to 170*F.
-Initially pour two gallons of heated water into mashtun and add the crushed grain.
-add 5 more gallons of heated water carefully checking the temperature to ensure 150-160*F temperature. Stir grain bed really well to get an accurate temperature.
-Let Mash rest for 75 Mash minutes, periodically checking the temperature and stirring the mash.
-At 0 Mash minutes, begin sparging of wort. Ensure wort is clear of grains before allowing wort to fill in boiling kettle. Flow rate should be monitored. Entire wort volume should take ~ 40 minutes before boiling kettle is filled.
-keep mashtun from running dry as boiling kettle fills by adding the remaining 170*F water periodically.
-Bring Wort to a rolling boil, Boil for 60 minutes.
-Hops/additives additions:
*0.5 oz Magnum hops for 60 minutes
*1.0 oz Perle hops for 60 minutes
*1 whirfloc tablet or Irish moss added at 15 minutes.
*Wort chiller added at 15 minutes.
*2.0 oz Cascade hops for 15 minutes
*1.0 oz Cascade hops for 0 minutes
-Bring wort to room temperature using immersion coil/ wort chiller.
-transfer wort fermenters and aerate by vigorously mixing.
-sprinkle Safale US-05 and mix. Seal fermenters and set aside for 3-7 days or until airlock bubbles slow to 1-5 bubbles every 60 seconds.
-Move to secondary for 7 days.
*3.0 oz Cascade hops dryhopped for 4-7 days in secondary.
-Once the trub bed is settled and there is no airlock activity, the beer can be bottled or kegged.
Bottling will require you to boil a mixture of maltodextrin and water. Use priming calculator to determine amount of maltodextrin and water to boil.
If you are kegging your beer like myself, shoot for a volume of CO_2 Level of 2.6. Set regulator to 10.8-12 psi and kegerator temperature to 36-38*F. That should do it.
