Notes: Vorlouf just enough to get bits of grain out then take some of the first runnings (usually 1.5-2 gallons) to the stove-top and add in the 1/2 lb of Muscovado Sugar (use in lieu of brown sugar). Boil for 30 minutes, then turn down heat and simmer for another 30 minutes. Add back to run-off, then proceed with boil.
I'd do two-step yeast starters, one at 1.040, then another at 1.080 to get the yeast tolerant for the higher ABV before pitching in 1.14.
Be sure to use yeast nutrient... and oxygenate/stir well prior to pitching.
If you have extra yeast from the starter at 1.080, save it and add at bottling. CBC-1 at a rate of ~ 1.8 g per 5 gallons, properly rehydrated
Aim for 5.3-5.5 pH due to roasted malts adding acidity in mash that can lower pH.
May finish at 13' or 14'P (1.053-1.057)
BSG/Rahr for base
Simpsons for caramel/crystal
Primary fermentation done in 7-10 days, let it sit for 28-days.
Barrel-aged beers don't crash
Clean stouts get cold-crashed for 1-2 weeks for softer/rounder beer
Bottle condition for 1+ month |

Notes: Walnuts combined with enough water to make 1 gallon total volume, then gently boiled for 38 minutes on the stove. Strained out the walnuts, dissolved honey, added 1 tsp DAP and 3/4 tsp Pectic Enzyme.
Pitched Cotes de Blanc red star yeast, but temperature was still a bit too high (100F) so may need to repitch tomorrow. |

Notes: Soak the US Medium Plus Oak Cubes or chips in 16 oz of Coffee Liqueur for 24 – 48 hours. Use half the pack for a mild oak flavor, or the whole pack for a more pronounced oak character. Then add the oak cubes and Coffee Liqueur to the secondary fermentor and wait an additional .5 – 2 weeks before bottling.
TIMING IS FLEXABLE depending on how much Coffee Liqueur and oak taste you want. |
