ok the brew came out bad. under attenuated. 1.040. i let it go 4 1/2 days before cold crashing. not sure what happened. here are some factors that could be fixed :
* possible underpitch - used a jar of hornindal that was made from a big starter and split 3 ways. next time maybe add whole pouch?
* possible yeast strain stubbornness - i think chad ritter said hornindal is a pain in the ass. next time switch back to hothead or try another strain
* possible lack of nutrients - ive heard some kviek need nutrients to do the job, but that wasnt the case with hothead
* possibly need to feed in the fermentables. added sugar andhoney to the boil - maybe next time add them a day or two later, possibly with some DME
* possible efficiency and mash problem - low pH readings but need to fix meter. low efficiency for sure. need to boil longer. maybe mash longer. maybe not getting full conversion andor proper formation of short/long chains
* possible grain crush issue
* possible water chemistry issue - need to re-evaluate
I'm also reading now that hornindal can under attenuate if you dont under pitch. use 1 tsp per 5 gallons. and need to use yeast nutrient.

having some kind of serious mash problem. only 50 some % efficient. pH coming out way low - read under 4.6 yesterday. not sure if pH meter needs recalibration or broken but its measuring 7.5 - 6.75 on RO water.
also there is something kind of strange about the water calculator. its possible it had me entering the salts for the full volume of water and not just the mash, thereby going too acidic. next time consider just treating all 10 gallons of water, not just the 8 that fit in the HLT.
===============================
7/14/2021
brew day.
fine tuning the water. since we need almost 10 gallons water, i am changing the calculator to treat 8 gallons water (all that will fit in my digiboil), we will use 6.7 gallons for the mash as instructed. There will be 1.3 of gallons of treated water remaining, will then top that up with about 1.7 gallons of straight up RO water and use that 3 total gallons for sparge water.
===============================
6/28/2021
making more adjustments... thinking 9% better than 10. reducing vienna.
altering hop schedule for simplicity. really changed it a lot actually.
adding water profile.
==================================================
half ass constructed from here :
http://secretlevelbrewing.com/bells-hopslam-clone.html
which itself is a customized version of the real clone posted on bells website, mine is customized further for simplicity in hop schedule. grain bill adjusted as well. not sure what pale ale malt is so im using vienna. |

| Notes: The "Schooner" malt is actually Sugar Creek Pre-Prohibition Malt (6-8L) but has similar specs. 24 hour 2L Starter with about 10 oz of 7 week old slurry. Starter appeared to be fermenting normally and should be ~500B cells. Will decant as much as possible. Excellent beer. Cluster hops (homegrown) have a bit of an edge and the beer was perfect from about Days 60-100 once the rustic edge softened. Served from the keg. Naturally carb'd beer in keg during D-rest period with 3oz dextrose dissolved in a few oz pre-boiled distilled water and kept under serving pressure. Beer was still pretty solid at 4 months when the keg kicked. |

Notes: Dutch Pilsner take on the WW Advanced Lord Nelson Recipe.
Replaced the APA cans and US-05 yeast for:
2 x WW LME Dutch Pilsner (Each LME Can adds 22 IBU and and 3 SRM - so recipe totals are 59.7 IBU's and 12.2 SRM)
100gm Pellet hops steeped for 200gm Pellet Hops steeped for 30 minutes at 75C.
3 x S-23 Yeast
Ferment at 15 degrees for 3 days
Then 18 degrees for 3 days
Then 21 degrees for 2 days for diacetyl rest
2 days after crash cool and sediment bottle dump to remove most of the yeast matter, drop pressure and add 100gms dry hops and leave for 2 days before dumping sediment
Pitched yeast when wort was too hot - ~30C, which killed the yeast, so no fermentation.
36 hours later, dumped trub and dead yeast. Rehydrated 3 x S-23 yeast and repitched. |

Notes: Fun brew! Brewed on Walter's system.
Had to divide grain bill into two mash tuns (coolers)
Hit target OG.
Bitter hop was old columbus from 2012 but smelled amazing.
Rest of hops fresh 1 oz packets.
yielded 10 gal post boil instead of target 11 gal (no graduation marks on boil kettle)
