Notes: From (Andy Mitchell @ NB)

Bittering: Nugget (very very small amount)
Whirlpool: 50% Crystal, 25% Azzaca, 25% Centennial…total >90% of the hops used in the boil
Dry Hop: Simcoe, Galaxy, Mandarina Bavaria, Cascade, Citra, Chinook, tangerine peel

That dry hop is crazy, the largest portions are Cascade and Citra

If it were me, I would split the late kettle hop addition between a 10 min addition and a flameout / whirlpool addition. I think that would replicate what we do better because of how our process works. Even though we use the peel in dry hop (it’s a powder) you may have better luck using it at flameout if it’s fresh zest…or maybe both dry hop and flame out.

Notes: Simple beer to bring out the intense grape/fruityness of the New Zealand Nelson Sauvin hops. Done as a SMaSH style. Single malt, single hop, fermented with clean US-05, mashed at 155 to leave some residual sweetness.

Notes: From George Washington's notebook circa 1757.

This recipe has been scaled down from a full cask size to 1 gallon.

Ingredients, per Washington's recipe:

0.5lb Wheat Bran
1lb Molasses (light molasses, or Lyle's Golden Syrup)
Hops to your taste

Heat 1.50 gallons of water to 165F. Add wheat bran, and heat to boiling. At start of boil, add first hops.

Stir well to avoid bran sticking to bottom of kettle.

Add aroma hops with 10 minutes remaining.

Pour boiling contents of kettle over a strainer into a new kettle that has the molasses/golden syrup in it. Let the strainer drain for a couple of minutes, then discard the spent bran/hops.

Cool to "just above blood warm" or around 80-90F. Pitch yeast and attach blow tube or airlock.

Ferment 7-10 days, then bottle without priming (this is a still beer). There may be some residual fermentation that provides very light carbonation. You can also wait until all fermentation completes and then bottle, which takes about 14 days or so.

This beer could benefit from extended resting time to let the fluffy trub settle out - whether in the fermenter, or the bottle. It will not form a typical yeast layer on the bottom of a bottle, but rather more of a gelatin-like layer in the bottle. Be aware when pouring the beer from the bottle so globs of trub don't fall into the glass.

*****************
* Tasting Notes *
*****************
Appearance - much like a hefeweizen. Bright, cloudy yellow. Described as looking like "pineapple juice" by a few people.

Aroma - yeasty, with light fruit.

Flavor - Grapefruit and wheat. Harsher/edgier citrus "zing" when fresh, which has mellowed considerably over the course of a few weeks in the bottle. This beer has a hint of dryness, with a very forward hop presence.

***************
* Bottom line *
***************

This is an interesting piece of history from Mr. Washington. I will be bottling this a month or two before the 4th of July, to share with others.

George advises "hops to your taste" and I would take him up on it - vary the hops but watch out with the alpha...you want low alpha hops for this brew. The bitterness of the hops presents itself assertively if you are not careful with the bittering amount.

This is a very light and dry beer that showcases hops if you proportion it right, with a smooth mouthfeel and very light wheat notes.

***************************************
* Original Recipe - punctuation added *
***************************************

To make Small Beer

Take a large Sifter full of Bran[.]
Hops to your Taste. Boil these 3 hours. Then strain out 30 Gallons into a Cooler, put in 3 Gallons Molasses while the Beer is scalding hot or rather drain the molasses into the Cooler & strain the Beer on it while boiling Hot. Let this stand till it is little more than Blood warm. Then put in a quart of Yeast if the weather is very cold, cover it over with a Blanket & let it work in the Cooler 24 hours. Then put it into the Cask[.] leave the bung open till it is almost done working[.] Bottle it that day Week it was Brewed.

Notes: (5 gallons/ 19 L, extract with grains) OG = 1.078 FG = 1.020 IBUs = 60 SRM = 59 ABV = 7.5 %

Step by Step:
Steep the crushed grain in 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water at 155 ºF (68 ºC) for 30 minutes. Remove grains from the wort and rinse with 2 quarts (1.8 L) of hot water. Add the liquid and dried malt extracts and bring to a boil. Add the hops and Irish moss as per the schedule. Add the Sumatran coffee and two chocolate varieties at the end of the boil. Add the wort to 2 gallons (7.6 L) of cold water in a sanitized fermenter and top off with cold water up to 5 gallons (19 L). Cool the wort to 75 ºF (24 ºC). Pitch the yeast and aerate the wort heavily. Allow the beer to cool to 68 ºF (20 ºC). Hold at that temperature until fermentation is complete. Transfer to a carboy, avoiding any splashing. Add the Kona coffee and condition for one week, then bottle or keg. Carbonate and age for two weeks.

All-grain option:
This is a single step infusion mash. Replace the malt extracts with 13.2 lbs. (6 kg) 2-row pale malt. Mix the crushed grains with 3.75 gallons (14 L) of 172 °F (78° C) water to stabilize at 155 ºF (68º C) for 60 minutes. Sparge slowly with 175 ºF (79º C) water. Collect approximately 6 gallons (23 L) of wort runoff to boil for 60 minutes. Reduce the 60 minute hop addition to 1 oz. (28 g) and the 30 minute addition to 0.4 oz. (11 g) to allow for the higher utilization factor of a full wort boil. Follow the remainder of the extract with grain recipe.

Notes: Brewed using the 20L Braumeister. Finally a beer for me, one of my favourite beer styles from one of my favourite countries to visit. Fermented towards the high end of the yeast temp to extract the banana flavours I love, if they are not for you please ferment at a lower temperature.

Update 2019-06-27: I have changed the malt bill to include a lot more wheat, as I have learned this brings out the banana, the mash schedule slightly changed to improve body.

Notes: Add 2 tsp of Gypsum to water, based off starting with DC water.

The recipe released from the White House has an error, they mention 1.5 oz of Fuggle in the list of ingredients, but then only 0.5 oz in the instructions. I went with 1.5 oz here.

The instructions are also a little weird in terms of the boil times. They say 'add the honey and boil for 5 more minutes'. So, actually it is a 50 minute boil, not a 45 minute boil.

Other than that, it is a straight forward extract batch.

To get it to qualify as an Amber Ale, had to set the IBU equation to Rager, and the SRM equation to Daniels. I'm open to suggestions on the style (haven't tasted it).

Notes: Ferment in the primary for 7 days, or until fermentation slows, then rack onto hops for dry hopping schedule for 5 days, or until fermentation stops. Add Gelatin to secondary 3 days prior to bottling and cold crash in fridge at 32-40 degrees to clarify beer (optional step).

This IPA sports deep gold in the glass with a creamy beige foam cap. The nose takes in a pleasing blend of floral hops along with citrus. It's a light to medium-bodied IPA with a well balanced palate that is not too bitter, consisting of citrusy hops and malt.

The finish aroma and flavor is a combination of hops and malt.

Lagunitas IPA is a MOST WORTHY West Coast IPA. This clone recipe will get you right there!!

Notes: Once primary fermentation completes, give 1-2 day diacetyl rest. During this time, chop up a whole seedless watermelon into cubes and freeze for 1-2 days. This will pasteurize the watermelon. Defrost and beat watermelon to a chunky pulp. Pour into primary or place in bottom of secondary and rack beer on top, then cold crash for 1-2 days. My spigot clogged on me with watermelon chunks so I had to use a racking cane to the keg. Package, carbonate, and serve!

Notes: Mengden meske- og skyllevann du bør bruke kommer an på utstyret og metoden du brygger med. Som et anslag kan vi si at du kan bruke 20 l meskevann og 13,3 l skyllevann til dette ølet. Noen bryggemaskiner (f.eks. Speidel Braumeister) kan kreve større mengder meskevann. Sjekk alltid manualen på utstyret du bruker.

I dette ølet kan et mer avansert meskeskjema være verdt å prøve:
55 grader i 15 min (proteinsteg)
63 grader i 45 min (beta-amylasesteg)
72 grader i 15 min (alfa-amylasesteg)
77 grader i 5 min (utmesk)

ELLER:
Mesking på 66 grader i 75 min. Utmesk på 77 grader i 5 min hvis du har mulighet til å øke temperatur i mesken.

Kjøl ned til 9 grader før pitching av gjær.

Gjæring på 10 grader til 2/3 av FG er nådd (typisk etter 10-14 dager). Øk deretter gradvis (ca. 1 grad pr. dag) til 17 grader. Hold på 18 grader i 2-3 dager. Senk deretter til 10 grader eller lavere før tapping (totalt 20-28 dager).

Gjæralternativer: WLP820, WLP838, WLP850, Saflager 34/70, Saflager S-189

Notes: Brewing Notes
Mash grains at 152 for 60min, sparge at 168. Add dextrose at end boil. Chill wort to 65 and fement for 4 days, then allow temp. to rise to 68 degrees and ferment to completion. Dry hop for 3-5 days then rack and package.

I'm guessing you start wiyh RO water and add the 1 gram of Calcuim Chloride and 1 gram Calcim Sulfate per gallon.

Yeast note: Chinco ale yeast( American or California ale yeast) 2L starter

My notes, I'd probably use London Ale III 1318 or a NorthEastern type of yeast.
HOP NOTES
He's saying use 6 oz of Citra at end boil and do a 20 min hop whirlpool, that would make this a lot higher than the IBU's showing
