Notes: This recipe was originally a kit called 'Black F-Rye-Day Pale Ale' from Adventures in Homebrewing. However, I changed it quite a bit.
I set my mill gap as tight as possible to mill the grain (except the malted rye) as close to flour as I could to ensure optimal extraction.

First wort hopped with .75 ounce Magnum and 1-ounce Spalt Select at 5 minutes.

Pulled 1 liter or wort from mash and diluted to 2 liters to make a starter. When I pitched the yeast I added all the wort back into fermentor, bringing gravity down to 1.073. Will add half a pound brown sugar to increase gravity by 4 points.

Will age on .75 ounce of medium toast oak chips that have been soaked in rye whiskey after fermentation is complete.

pH: __________

2. STRIKE WATER: 161F.
3. Add Grains @ 159F.
4. Add 2mL of LA.
5. Allow Temperature to fall to 149F prior to closing lid.
6. Check Mash pH ~15 minutes into Mash.

pH: __________

7. Total Mash Time: 60 minutes

FINAL MASH TEMP: __________F
FINAL MASH pH: __________

8. Add 1.5gal of Boiling Water at the end of Mash and stir into solution.
9. Begin Vorlauf!

** SPARGE **

1. Add 6gal of water + Kettle salts to Pot. Prior to heating, adjust pH to </= 6.0 with Lactic Acid

Lactic Acid addition: __________ mL
Final pH measurement: __________

2. Heat 6gal of Water to 175F. Add to Sparge Vessel.
3. Recirculate 4 times prior to collecting wort.
4. Attempt to Sparge over 30-40 minutes.

** BOIL **

1. Check Pre-Boil Gravity (goal: 1.044) + pH
** NOTE: Make sure to adjust for TEMPERATURE **

PRE-BOIL GRAVITY: __________ @ __________F

2. Adjust Gravity to Goal (1.044)

Adjusted Gravity: __________ (__________ @ __________ F)

PRE-BOIL pH: __________

3. Adjust Pre-Boil pH to: ~5.3 (+/- 0.1)

Final pH measurement: __________
Lactic Acid addition: __________ mL

4. Boil for 90 minutes (goal OG: 1.072)
5. Add Northern Brewer Hops @ 60 minutes.
6. Add Hallertau Hops @ 30 minutes.
7. Add Styrian Golding Hops, Candi Syrup + Corn Sugar @ 15 minutes
8. Add 3/4-1 of a crushed, Whirlfloc tablet @ 5 minutes.
9. Chill wort to ~70F after completion of Boil
10. Auto-siphon wort from Kettle into Mash Cooler with fine mesh bag attached (at the end of auto-siphon)
11. Gravity feed wort from Mash Cooler into Catalyst Fermenter
12. Allow Ranco/Chest Freezer to adjust wort temperature to 1F BELOW goal starting temp

ORIGINAL GRAVITY: ______________ (goal: 1.072)

** FERMENTATION **

1. Beginning Fermentation Temp: 69F.
2. As signs of Fermentation begin to slow, increase temp by 1F/12hr up to 80F.

** PRIMING **

"carbonate to approximately 3-3.5 volumes CO2"

Notes: Mash at 158 for 30 minutes. Recirculate mash for 10 minutes then sparge.

Boil for 90 mins, with first hops in at 60. Cool to 67 then aerate for 2 minutes. Let fermentation temp rise to 72 after 5 days.

Cold crash and carbonate to 2.2.

Can add 2-3 oz of Fuggles at Day 5 and leave in for 2-4 days.

Gold Medal in 2022 NHA for Pale British Beer, 9B.

First brewed 9/18/22. Pre boils gravity was 1048 and post boil 1055! So 80% efficiency. Boiled 90 mins and had 5.1 gallons remaining so added .4 gallons distilled water to get to 5.5 gallons.

Used hop spider which retained some liquid with 6.5 oz of hops! That brought gravity down to 1050.

After 24 hours gravity was 1028 with temp at a constant 67f.

Second brew 3/31/24.

Followed schedule, inc. 1 tsp of gypsum and 1 tbsp of 10% phosphoric acid. Measured pH during boil and it was 4.8 pre sparge, and 4.88 post sparge. Added 1/2 tsp chalk just before boil to try and increase it.

Gravity at the start of boil was 1044. Boiled for close to 2 hours by mistake. As a result, had to add 3 pints of distilled water to bring the quantity close to 5.5 gallons.

Chilled to 67 then moved to fermenter. Gravity was 1054, so higher than planned (79% efficiency vs. 73% before). Added yeast and just used an airlock - no temp control.

Temp rose to 71 after 24 hours and gravity fell quickly to 1034. After 64 hours it was 1024. Gravity then stopped at 1023 and remained there for 3 days. I shook the fermenter to stir the yeast but no change. I then added a pack of rehydrated US05 to try and lower gravity but no difference.

Put into cask after 13 days of primary. FG was 1023, so poor attenuation but likely due to high mash temp. Amazing clarity as it transferred and taste was distinctive - toffee, gentle rolling bitterness, toast, and soft spices. Very drinkable from the fermenter!
