Notes: 4/1/2011
Kegged last week, tasted great already, the hops were present and pairing well with the blueberry but slightly subdued so I added another 3oz mosaic dry hop to the keg to even it out at 1lb total mosaic. Having a full pint tonight, its money.
==============================
3/22/2021
opened today for gravity reading and to add dry hop. 1.018. smells great. tastes great. not as darkly colored as previous blueberry beer but its like a hazy pink on its way to purple. tastes great, a little harsh bitter note, could be the mosaic? there is no bittering hops in this brew.

should be good! should be ready soon! will leave it to dry hop for 3 days then take out the bag, take another gravity reading to make sure the fruit has fermented out / no further activity. after that will need to cold crash for a day or two then keg. possibly add another 2nd dry hop to the keg. i have a few oz left of the bag.
==============================

initial recipe formulation

copying base recipe from mango maya. keeping basically the entire grain bill, adjusting efficiency to 60, removing DME and adjusting base malt to get to 8%. im hoping to cook the oats and get better efficiency than in the past. if we end up with 6% it should still be tasty.

axing the 1lb honey malt - i dont think it plays as well with blueberry as it does with mango. also its heavy on lovibond making th ebase beer more orange colored which goes ok with mango but for blueberry im hoping more toward yellow hazy ipa base beer as a bright backdrop for the purple blueberries.

making up a new hop schedule, 100% mosaic. not sure how much to use. starting with 13oz - about the same as mango maya. will probably buy a bag so if it needs 3oz more in a 2nd dry hop, that will be available.

decided on only 3lb blueberry - last time i used blueberry i did 6lbs and it was way too much. i think it will not be lacking in blueberry color and flavor, especially accented by the mosaic.

could maybe do without the vanilla bean? and lactose? prob not.

Notes: Estimated Mash pH of 5.4
Actual Mash pH ended up 5.58

Preboil gravity = 1.061
Ending Gravity = 1.074

Preboil Volume = 4.6 Gal
Into Fermenter = 3.5 Gal (Dumped All)

Missed the FWH so adjusted the amount of Mt. Hood FWH to match the IBUs at 55 minutes.

Vitality starter of 2 packs yeast (both ~50% viable). 500-600 mL for 4 hours prior.
Cold crashed to 38 degrees then fined with gelatin for 3 days. Kegged and carbed for 3 days before serving.

Started @ 63-64 degress, ramped towards end of ferm to 68-69, then rested at 70 degrees for a week or so.

Also used wyeast nutrient to add zinc (and other stuff) to wort. Thought lack of zinc might be a potential cause of acetaldehyde (green apple).

Grain Absorption = 0.11 Gal/lb
Boiloff ~ 1.0 gal/hr
Grist Ratio = 2.13 qt/lb
Wort Shrinkage ~ 2.8%

Mash went to top of pot and spilled over a bit. Reduce future batches to 3.25 gallons.

TO DO NEXT TIME:

-Start heating wort while draining to lock in enzymes as opposed to mash out. Letting the wort cool changes enzyme composition.
-Try and get a filter for going into fermenter
-Use a grate to drain grain
-Try CaCl2, Gypsum, Epson Salt in bud light to see what I prefer
-Grind grain night before

Notes: A Watermelon German Hefeweizen.

Boil for 90 mins
Ferment at 62.

Add fresh watermelon juice after a week or so directly into fermenter (after most of fermentation has completed).

The internets has differing opinions on how much watermelon juice to add. 1qt to 2qts per 5g. A thread on homebrewtalk indicates that 2qts per 5g is the best result.
