Notes: Based on a disappointing recent sample of Marble Ginger and a Twitter discussion with an ex-Marble brewer, I wanted to make something killer fiery so I doubled his recommended ginger additions.
Day 3 - Boil Honey with water and 5g dried ginger. Strained, cooled and add.
Day 5 - Rack to secondary, add fine sliced fresh ginger in bag, add some brandy to the dried ginger, stick it in a bag, add to secondary.
Priming sugar boiled with water and 5g dried ginger.

Notes: Mix all hops together, and hop continuously for 90min** (see note below)
Mash at 149-150*
Ferment with WLP007 at 64*. Use a pitch rate calculator for your starter, you want around 300 billion cells.
Dry hop:
2oz Amarillo
2oz Simcoe
I like to split the additions in half over the 2 weeks
*Amber malt: Use Thomas Fawcett Amber Malt, don't just use any old amber malt. If you can't find Thomas Fawcett Amber, look harder. This is the exact malt DFH uses, and it's a distinctive flavor. It's available at quite a few online retailers if your LHBS doesn't carry it.
**Hopping: Mix all 5oz of hops together, how often you add them is up to you. Some people add a couple pellets every minute, others fill up 30 dixie cups, and add one cup per 3 minutes. Personally I do 10 additions, 0.5oz every 10 minutes, and it turns out excellent.
That's about it, it's actually a fairly easy beer to brew other than the continuous hoping. If you can't find WLP007, use WYeast 1098 - Dry Whitbread, or Safale S04. Definitely use WLP007 if it's available, the yeast character is dead on.

Notes: Prepare a 1 liter starter.
Consider a bit of gypsum to provide a bit of crisp, flinty finish. Gordon recommends 1 tsp of Calcium Chloride in the mash and 1/2 tsp of Gypsum in the boil. My additions are noted in 'Other'.
Pitch yeast at 67, ferment at 68. Then let temp rise to 70 toward end of fermentation to avoid diacetyl.
Carbonate to just under 2 volumes Co2. Serve closer to cellar temperature. (about 55F)

Notes: This style depends on pitching a lot of healthy yeast cells. As with hops, however, the particular strain is not hugely important. What is important is that esters, aromatic alcohols and other flavor compounds associated with yeast’s respiration and reproduction phases are subdued. This can be accomplished by choosing a yeast strain that is known to be relatively “neutral” in flavor impact. It can also be accomplished by pitching a large volume of any ale strain and fermenting at a cooler-than-usual temperature.
add yeast nutrient. Perhaps soften the water slightly by adding NaHCO3.
May also need daily agitation of fermenter.
Original gravity is 1.061 (???). Add 0.75kg of sugar, OG = 1.072 FG = 1.024.
instead of fuggles south african new hops were added 20g/55min, IBU in twenties (boiled without first gallon that was boiled separately)
cooled in the freezer to 13C, yeast pitched.
Went down to 1.010 (9.2%), very thin body. Infection with wild yeast

Add 5 drops Fermcap-S at boil
Add Corn Sugar with 15 minutes left on the boil

Filter hops by putting a 5 gallon paint strainer bag into the primary and pouring wort through the strainer before pitching yeast
Rehydrate US-05 prior to pitching
1) Warm the dry yeast to room temperature
2) In a sanitized container, prepare 1/2 cup of sterile water at 95-105°F
3) Sprinkle the dry yeast on top of the water, trying to avoid setting up large, dry clumps.
4) Let sit 15 minutes, then gently stir.
5) When the yeast has reconstituted, gently stir again to form a cream and let sit another 5 minutes.
6) Carefully and slowly, adjust the temperature of the yeast to within 15°F of the wort temperature.
7) Pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel, ideally as soon as possible. |
