Notes: 1. pilsner and 6-row was ground and added to mash tun along with flaked oats with tun around 168, mash was still quite hot, vigorously stirred for about 5-10 min to bring the temp down to around 150-154 degrees fahrenheit.

2. Mashed for more than 90 min (10-20 min more), I had made the mistake of starting to heat my sparge water late. prior to sparge, wort was at about 148 degrees fahrenheit

3. Vorlauf 2-3 times with 1/2 gallon each circulation.

4. Sparged with ~6.5 gallons for 30 min with water at 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

5. Once sparge reached ~7.5 gallons, boil started, for about 90 minutes, added 1oz of cascade hops 45 min into the boil, and some irish moss with 15 left in the boil. Yielded more than original batch target of 5.5 gallons. (about 6 gals)

6. Wort chilling began with copper wort chiller. It was a hot day, ~85 degrees, could not get the beer effectively below 80 degrees.

7. Added fruit and fruit juice to the carboy after transfer from boiler. Picture showed is my OG reading. ~1.056-1.058

8. Due to the hot temp, I decided to wait to pitch the yeast, and decided to add 5 teaspoons of pectic enzymes and let it sit for 12 hours before pitching yeast along with yeast nutrient around 70-72 degrees.

Notes: *Sugar: (Last 15 minutes of boil)

*Mashing (explanation of high temperature):
The reason for mashing at 158 came from doing research into the style from somewhere that I can't even recall.
It may seem high, but the reason for doing so is that Beta Amylase enzymes denature at 158. This leaves more unfermentable long chain dextrins, you will have more "weight" and more mouthfeel with the 158f mash temp but about the same starting gravity, and the final gravity will be higher as well. You get more mouthfeel this way so that when you add the table sugar to the boil, you get the gravity boost but it's not "thin and cidery" like happens with many beers when you boost with a simple sugar. With this higher temp mash there still is decent mouthfeel and even great lacing on the glass from the proteins.

*Yeast; making as starter:
Procedure:

In a medium sauce pan, add 2 pints of water and 1 cup Dried Malt Extract (DME). Mix well and boil the solution for about 10 minutes to sterilize. Cover and cool the pan to room temperature in an ice bath. This will give you a wort of approximately 1.040 OG. Keeping the Original Gravity low is important because you want to keep the yeast in its growth phase, rather than its fermentation phase. The fermentation phase will create alcohol which can be toxic to yeast in high concentrations.

Pour the wort into a sanitized glass container (flask, growler, etc.) and pitch the vial of yeast. Cover the top of the container with a sanitized piece of aluminum foil so that it is flush with the container, but will still allow CO2 to escape. Vigorously shake or swirl the container to get as much oxygen dissolved in the solution as possible. Allow the starter to sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours, occasionally shaking it to keep the solution aerated.

You probably won’t see any visible activity, but the yeast is busy taking up the oxygen and sugars in the solution and growing new cells. After the yeast has consumed all of the nutrients and oxygen, it will form a milky white layer on the bottom of the container. If you are not planning on pitching the yeast right away, you can store it in the refrigerator with the foil still in place. When you are ready to brew, decant off most of the clear liquid from the top, being careful not to disturb the yeast layer below. Once the yeast and your wort are at approximately the same (room) temperature, rouse the starter yeast into suspension and pitch the entire quantity into your fermenter.

Typical Starter Volumes for 5 gallons:
To activate the yeast: 1 pint (with ½ cup DME)
To revitalize yeast past its Best Before Date: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME)
To brew a high gravity beer: 2 pints (with 1 cup DME)

Notes: Silver in River Valley 2022 Competition 22/05/2022

* Fresh is best - We highly recommend using this kit promptly to obtain the best flavor from your beer. Ensure
you use sanitary practices to prevent any accidental contamination. Typical fermentation is completed in 10
days.
1. Chill wort to target fermentation temp (68°-72°F/20 ̊-22 ̊C), place in temp controlled environment, attach
insulated temp probe to side of fermentor (or in a thermowell if you have one), and pitch your yeast.
2. Two days after fermentation activity starts, remove the probe so it measures ambient then bump regulator to
75°F/24 ̊C.
3. After 2-5 more days, once FG is stable (e.g. no fermentation activity / bubbles in your airlock) and the sample
is free of off-flavors (a forced diacetyl test can verify this), drop the temperature to 50°F/10 ̊C.
*If diacetyl persists, increase temperature slowly. The Philly Sour yeast is able to handle up to 86°F/30 ̊C if
needed.
4. Add finings if desired (e.g. 1/2 tsp gelatine dissolved in pre-boiled water). Cold crash the beer to 30-32°F/0 ̊C.
5. 24-48 hours later, package the beer.
