Notes: Special Instructions / Notes:
Ok.. so we were the last ones to start, first ones to post our recipe. (Advantage: Webmaster) But seriously, all of the equiptment for our system showed up at 9 am. By 9:45 we'd cobbled together the CDJK mobile brewing system.
Mash water was acidified using lactic acid and quickly heated to ~160F. This was dumped into Kent's lauter tun. And all the grain was mixed in to a settle at a temp of about 148F.
Sparge water was then heated up and acidified. (In the process the poor cap of my ph meter was sacrificed to Kent's mad burner.)
Recirc was quick and painless. Sparge then occured over the next hour as we ran off into a grant and then pumped into the boil kettle with the Target hops already present.
As we gathered more liquid than we had space for, (Part of the plan) we began running the first runoff into the second kettle.
The boil proceeded fairly normally (w/ one near boilover thanks to Jim's burners massive BTU output)
5 Minutes from the end we added the brown sugar. This sugar had been sampled by a number of people that morning and was acclaimed as a great sugar for an English beer. (Available at this time at Trader Joe's )
We sanitized the chiller and pump while we figured how, since we'd boiled in 2 pots, to balance the batch. We ended up using the pump as a mixer between the two pots. Once done for a sufficent period, ~10 minutes.
Chilling accomplished, we then ran boiled water through the chiller to dilute our batches down. We moved indoors to oxygenate and pitch our yeasts. Thanks to the Rhudes for pitching in another tank of O2 when mine ran out. Jim Kopitzke pitched his batch with London III. Cullen pitched Thames Valley. Kent and I (Drew) pitched with the Whitbread yeast. Kent elected to keep his batch at close to the original output strength (1.049).

Notes: Hit mash temp of 152F perfectly.
Hit OG exactly.

Drained for two minutes after mashing and two minutes after sparging. Left bag in pot almost until boil started and added the drained wort to the kettles.

Beer is very good. It's somewhat sweet and lacks the crisp breadiness of the real Kaiser. I would use a lager strain next time and also get the beer a little drier. Maybe up the IBUs to 30 or 35.

Notes: A strong red ale with aggressive bitterness from US Warrior/NZ Pacific Jade balanced by semi-sweet malt and notes of stone fruit, pine and citrus derived from a combination of NZ/Australian hops.

3/13/16: Brew day went well. Hit all temps pretty dead-on. Collected 8 gallons and boiled down to 6 before starting the true boil/adding the initial hop addition. Pre and post-boil gravity were dead on. Did a 20 minute whirlpool/hop stand after chilling to 140 F, then continued chilling to pitch temp. We're assuming 80% attenuation with WLP001 as we usually do very well with it. Here's to hoping. We'll probably dry-hop with another oz of Wakatu in the coming week. Cheers!

3/18/16: Only been 5 days in the fermenter but activity has seemingly slowed down to a crawl. Pulled a sample to check and it's still sitting at about 1.022-23. We'll give it another week and probably rack and dry-hop it then. Tasting somewhat rough-around-the-edges... definitely too sweet (which makes sense given the gravity currently), but it's actually pretty bitter and flavorful regardless. I'm getting a hefty dose of pine as well as stone and tropical fruits. So far I'd say this one's going quite well and will probably end up very solid. -A

4/16/16: Finally drinking a properly-matured bottle of this. Glad we didn't call it an IPA as we were pretty sure it wouldn't come out that way anyway. It's definitely malt-focused but balanced by a resinous, piney bitterness and unique dark fruit character (dates come to mind).

6/7/16: Just opened another bottle of this one that's been in the fridge for a while. Been a few months since it was bottled so hopefully it's come into its own.

A: Hard pour results in a few fingers of decently-retentive head. Good deep-ruby color, almost garnet-like, if a little darker, when held up to direct light. Head is kind of a khaki color. Surface is hazy and wispy.

S: Lots of toffee and treacle, dates and other dark stone fruit plus some undercurrents of botanical/floral character, lime seltzer and dried herbs. Wakatu probably was not the right varietal to dry-hop this with, all things considered, and I'm realizing this now. Since it's essentially just New Zealand's version of Hallertau, it has kind of a noble-hop aroma and didn't add as much heady citrus/tropical as we wanted in the final product. All things considered, this still smells like a solid imperial red ale.

T: Still lots of English toffee, some ethanol, pine and herbal notes, pie crust, a bit of citrus peel. Just tastes a bit too muddled and undefined to me. Bitterness is seemingly high but doesn't translate into anything special on the palate, making this feel kind of dull. We'll probably have to rethink this recipe quite a bit to get what we want out of it. It's quite drinkable and even enjoyable, but I'm too struck by what could have been instead of being excited about what actually became, and that's never a great sign.

M: I'd say we actually succeeded very well at making a "strong ale" with an amber ale bent that retains good, slick feel and drinkability, however. Probably one of this beer's strong suits. In a sense, this reminds me (and Pat, as I recall) of an intensified Irish red ale.

O: We will probably do something of this sort again, but change it to the point that it's likely going to be nothing like this. That said, I think I'll end up wanting to keep the malt bill rather the same. This is good beer, realistically, but just not what we wanted. I would like to achieve both "good beer" and "beer the way we want it from conception to actualization," so this is essentially a failure as it's only "half done" by that standard. -A
