Notes: Version 11 of North Cro Irish Red, adapted from Captain Crack Sparrow, from the You Tube Channel THE APARTMENT BREWER.
This recipe differs from previous versions in that the Rahr 2-row base malt is replaced by Floor Malted Warminster Maris Otter (English Pale Ale Malt).
YEAST
Using Omega Labs OYL005 Irish Ale Yeast. One banked, frozen test tube, starting with 250 ml of wort, then finishing off with a 1L starter, should provide sufficient yeast cells for an Irish Red, as well as saving a small amount for yeast banking.
MASHING IN
Mash in at 153° F. Stir rapidly. After all (except the Midnight Wheat) is combined very well, allow to rest about 10 min, then measure pH. If it is higher than 5.45, add acid to adjust.
REGULAR MASH
Mash for 75 minutes at 153° F, checking pH and gravity to determine if it is necessary to mash longer than 75 minutes. Pre-Boil Gravity should be at or near 1.037. Check pH, and adjust. If gravity is not at or near 1.037, mash longer.
MASH OUT
****(Midnight Wheat addition here...)****
As mash temperature is ramping up to 168F, Increase power to 85% and add the Midnight Wheat late addition when temperature reaches 160℉. Now, continue the ramp-up to 168° F for the mash-out/vorlauf. Mash-out is of 15 minute duration.
RAISING THE GRAIN BASKET
Turn off recirculation. Raise the grain basket and hang on side of kettle as usual.
Turn off valves, making sure the 3-way whirlpool valve is open only on the RIGHT side, not the mash recirculating side. Remove small hose from recirculation flow meter, and allow to empty into a vessel, then put liquid back in kettle. Connect long recirculation hose to left side of 3-way valve.
RECIRCULATION OVER GRAINS (Optional)
Secure recirculation hose over grain basket using a clamp. Now, open 3-way valve to center position. Start recirculation, regulating flow rate through pump exit valve. Allow to recirculate over grains for 15 minutes at a moderate flow rate.
LIGHT SPARGE
Test pH of sparge water, before heating it up, and if necessary acidify to pH 5.5-5.7. Pour 168° F prepared brewing water slowly over the grain, distributing it over the surface as evenly as possible. Use the amount necessary to bring pre-boil volume to 6.63 gal.
DRAINING GRAIN BASKET
Adjust 3-way valve so recirculation valve (left side) is closed. Remove long recirculation hose and allow to drain into vessel, then return liquid to kettle.
Allow grain basket to drain for 15 minutes, then remove basket and hang over bucket to catch remaining fluid draining. In the meantime, allow whirlpool recirculation to proceed as liquid ramps up to a boil. When draining is complete, add remaining liquid to kettle.
RAMPING UP TO A BOIL
Turn off pump, shut off all valves, then MAKE SURE BREW COMMANDER IS SET IN BOIL MODE. Set power at 85-95%. Drain all hoses into bucket, then collect sample for measuring OG, pH, etc. Put remaining liquid in kettle. Continue with ramp up to boil.
***NEW**Caramel Draw
This is an old technique where a small portion of the wort (1 quart in this recipe) is drawn off when the boil commences, boiled hard separately in a saucepan for 18-20 min), set aside and then added back to the main boil with 15 minutes remaining.
The intense heat creates Maillard reactions and caramelization.
Results:
• deeper ruby red color
• richer malt complexity
• subtle caramel/toffee
• no roast bitterness
BOIL
90 minute boil, with the first hop addition going in at the 30 min mark (60 min before end of boil). When 15 minutes remain, add the second hop charge, then the wort which was boiled separately and the Whirfloc tablet.
WHIRLPOOL
Regular whirlpool, 15 minutes, no hop additions
CHILLING
Blichmann Therminator
PITCH YEAST
Omega Labs OYL005 Irish Ale Yeast from prepared culture.
FERMENTATION IN CHEST FREEZER AT 65 DEG F.
Conduct fermentation at 65 degrees, THEN after 3-4 days allow temperature to rise to 68 deg F to finish. |
