Repitched rehydrated philly sour yeast at 36 hours after no apparent attenuation or signs of fermentation for the first yeast batch. Very small spots (approximately 1-2mm) of potential infection appeared around open air area above wort. The rehydrated philly sour pitch took off rapidly, showing signs of activity at 5 hours and significant increase in bubbling at 7 hours after pitch. It is worth noting that this philly sour yeast packet expired in a year from now, but the packet was not vacuum sealed right and air and loose space within the packet. Appears to be working fine.
Stirred hard during mash every 15 mins leaving grain bed untouched. Recirculated at 30 mins left in mash with low flow. Cooled rapidly to 80F or below with wort chiller - potentially cooled too far - unsure of how accurate anvil foundry thermostat is.

Notes: Brewed on January 28th, 2017:
Added about a tablespoon of baking soda to the mash to increase pH.
It originally read around 4.9, afterward it raised to about 5.1. Never got it to the ideal 5.4. Need to pay attention earlier in the mash to get this right.
OG into the fermenter was a little over 1.055. I'm considering that nailed.
Feb 20, 2017:
Gravity reads as 1.005. Not sour but tastes like a clean saison. A little darker than expected (but close to brewersfriend's estimate)
May 8th: Chilled and carbonated
Very clear and copper colored.
Almost apple flavor coming from the yeast, I think.

Notes: Add dry yeast to top of the Wert. Place fermenter in a warm area (60-65°F).
Approx 1-3 days after adding the yeast and healthy fermentation is taking place, move your fermenter to your cool area (48-60°F). Basement floors during colder months or a refrigerator with temperature control.
Wait 7-10 days of fermentation, then allow to rise to room temperature for 24 hrs. Diacetyl rest. Transfer into a glass carboy for 3-12 weeks at lagering temperature (36-45°F). |
