Notes: Making the Must:
===============
Pour the apple concentrate into a sanitized 6 to 8 gallon fermentor. Add 2lbs of honey and pectin enzyme to the juice, stirring well.
Primary Finish Gravity:
===================
When fermentation is complete, make sure it is done fermenting by checking it with a hydrometer; it should have finished down to 1.000 or lower.
Secondary / Additives:
===================
Transfer to secondary. Now add the stabilizer pack and stir vigorously for 2 minutes, this will help release any sulfur dioxide created during fermentation. Continue to stir twice a day for 2 minutes each time for 3 days.
Finings:
=======
Add the Isinglass Finings and stir gently for 20 seconds and let sit for 3-7 days or until your cider has cleared out.
Back Sweetening:
===============
Once it has cleared, transfer off sediment into a bottling bucket. Nor stir 2lbs of honey into the cider making sure it has dissolved, it will all dissolve you just need to keep stirring until it has dissolved completely. Now add the cherry concentrate, apple flavoring pack and stir gently until incorporated.
Kegging:
=======
Recommend kegging this cherry cyser. |

Notes: Added a hop tea to the bottling bucket of 1oz Centennial, 1oz Idaho 7, and 1.5oz Mosaic. ~1lt of water @155F then left to cool with hops for about an hour. Strained and added to bottling bucket with priming sugar prior to syphoning fermenter.
Tasting notes -
OH wow that's way more bitter than I had intended. The hop tea tastes weird at first, but after ageing in the bottle for 2 weeks or so it tastes like brewery quality dry hopped beer. Huge hop punch. Doesn't taste as "freshly opened pellet bag" as just dry hopping though. The Idaho 7 completely overwhelms the other hop additions (which is good because I did want that for THIS batch) I'd stick with Centennial + Mosaic + Cascade/Citra/mandarina combo for the fruity kick this one is very piney and pithy, and I'd rank the IBU at more like 45-60.
Things I'd change-
Grain bill is perfect, but I think I'd keep all hop additions to no longer than 20min because the IBU is incredibly deceiving when using this many hops. I'd also probably back off of the Idaho 7 additions and swap it out for something more fruity like Citra or Galaxy. |

Notes: Tasting notes: Comparison to 2 Czech dark lagers. This one landed between the two comparison brews.
Bernard Cerny 12 - Smooth, clean complete fermentation. Stronger dark roasted barley flavor. Little bit of bitterness.
This brew - color in between, closer to the Bernard. Some carmel, malt flavor without the sweetness of the Kozel. Limited aroma
Velkopopovickyh Kozel Cerny - Slightly lighter reddish brown color. More residual malt sweetness, more mid-caramel malt flavors of raisin, dark fruit. Sweet, malty aroma. |

Notes: Wanted to brew a belgianish sort of beer with my wild yeast. The cascade hops (I know, not Belgian) were from my yard and I 'aged' them by baking at 170F for something like 10 hours. |

Notes: The base recipe is from Morebeer's Pliny the Elder kit (malts and whole hops). **Note, I added more DME to this calculator to get actual ABV of around 9.45% OG: 1.085, FG: 1.013. Use 0.5 lbs DME, next time I might skip the maltodextrin, the beer tastes slightly sweet but balanced. I also pitched 2x yeast vials.
Oak chips were aged six months on about 5oz of Evan Williams on a full packet (12oz?) oak. This provided a nice smokey flavor and means that I didn't have to sanitize the wood chips. Added oak with dry hop pellets. I feel the oak significantly zapped the hops flavor, beer is balanced or tilting sweet almost. |
