Notes: After recently brewing my first black rice lager and receiving lots of positive feedback, I decided to brew a variation to serve at the 2024 Pints 4 Paws event in Annapolis, MD. This version has been adjusted so the grain bill is 50% rice, 50% grains, hence the name. I also altered the dark grains a bit, adding in some Carafa III to boost the roastiness and give a little more flavor.
Below are the steps I used for cooking the rice and incorporating it into the mash:
- RINSE RICE VERY WELL!
- Bring 3 gallons of distilled water to a boil in the kettle. Using the steel mesh basket, add all the rice to the boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook the rice for 30 minutes (or longer, if necessary). After rice is cooked, remove the basket and top off water to reach 6.58 gallons. Heat/cool as required to reach a mash temp of 147°F. Remember to factor the cooked rice temperature when calculating a strike temperature!
- Check pH before adding lactic acid. The rice doesn't seem to factor into the water calculator and my last batch ended up not needing any lactic acid.
- Rice hulls are highly recommended during the mash.
- On my last batch the mash was really thick after blending the rice and grains. It may not be necessary, but I used 30 drops (approximately 1/4 teaspoon) of Glucabuster to aid with recirculation. It helped a ton.
- Boil time for the batch is only 30 minutes, however that may have to be extended based on water volume. My pre-boil volume was much higher than anticipated last time.
- Pressure ferment at 68°F @ 15psi. |

Notes: Brewed 04/21/24. Mashed in w/15 L Boulder city, 10' rest at 130 F, raise to 147 F. Pull decoction, rest, boil 20', return to main mash; temp 153 F. Hold for 15', then raise to 165 for lauter. Sparge with water + 1.5 ml lactic acid. Forgot to add Whirlfloc and yeast nutrient! Oh well, more Rheinheitsgebot.

Notes: Grains treated with 2% by weight water with 25 ppm Sodium Meta Bisulfite, just before grinding.
Mash water boiled before use to reduce oxygen level. Sodium Meta Bisulfite (Campden tabs) added as powder @ 50 ppm to prevent Hot Side Oxidation (will add 11.6 ppm Na+ and 40.5 ppm SO3- aq to water profile)
Add 5 drops Fermcap S prior to boil. Invert sugar using
Make 2L starter
Cool wort to 19 C (66F) before pitching yeast and let rise to 21 C (70 F) maximum during fermentation
