Notes: Hi, all!
I brewed this recipe on January 28th and it has been steadily fermenting since then. I gave a quick sniff of the airlock and got a Sulphur-like aroma. This is not surprising since it is still fermenting, and also considering that it was derived from a Belgian. I did a little bit of digging online and found some forum discussions on this subject. User jnick from "homebrew talk" contacted the owner of Omega about this and received this "Sundew can definitely kick off a ton of sulfur during fermentation (its parent strain, Belgian A, does the same thing). Give it a little more time and that should condition out. Everything else sounds on point. Let me know if you have any other questions".
I normally leave my homebrews to ferment for about 2.5 - 3 weeks before cold crashing or transferring to secondary. So, in the meantime I will wait for this to finish fermenting. Expect an update by the end of next week.
Best Regards!
- Dennis (02/06/23)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update!
Fermentation has almost finished, and the sulphury smell is no longer apparent. I will be waiting a couple more days before racking into a secondary along with a fining agent. I plan on bottling this in about a week.
Best Regards!
- Dennis (2/15/23)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update!
Bottled about 2 weeks ago, I'm going to let the bottles condition for another week before transferring to the refrigerator. I opened a bottle to check the carbonation and give it a quick taste. The strawberry characteristic is very subtle, really all of the flavors are subtle. I didn't take an OG or FG recording, so I don't know exactly where issues would have arisen. I have since procured some instruments that will help with recording these variables, so all future recipes posted to brewer's friend will have better data. I'll provide a final update after conditioning is finished.
Best Regards,
- Dennis Gifford (3/9/2023)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Update!
Bottle conditioning has finished, and I pulled one out of the refrigerator last night to try. The first and most obvious thing I noticed was the very apparent Belgian-like character which is most likely due to the yeast strain being derived from a Belgian strain. Overall, the beer turned out okay, definitely not a cream ale (more like a strawberry Belgian ale). If I were to brew this again I would adjust the grain bill a little bit, use more strawberry puree, and a yeast like California ale from white labs. I definitely want to use Sundew for a different recipe in the future.
Best Regards,
-Dennis Gifford |

Notes: =============================
4/22/2021
brew day.
removing the hallertau mittelfruh and saaz in favor of nobility. adding some hallertau magnum i have in the fridge and then im going to have to add some warrior to get the rest of the way on ibu.
i picked up 10 gallons of glacier RO water from publix and added all treatments to strike water. next time prob need to get 15 gallons.
=============================
4/15/2021
copied into new recipe to change to 10 gallons. this time will be using reused bavarian lager 2206 yeast from maibock 5 gallon batch. i think half the cake in each fermentor will be ok.
Redoing the water, not sure what it was set to before....
appears there is no real way to get a decent water profile for light lager from my house water. hopefully i can get a couple of those 5 gallon jugs and not have to buy 10 damn gallon jugs from grocery
im not sure but i think i can just add all my water additions to the mash water and be done with it? use straight distilled for the sparge
=============================
8/12/2020
brew day. changing recipe to reflect saaz are actually 2.8 instead of 3.5. and i accidentally added .5 oz at 30 and flameout instead of .25 and .75 respectively.
=============================
8/11/2020
copied into a new recipe today to mess with water profile. thinking about starting with distilled or purified (not sure if this is the same as RO) and building. looked at the pilsner preset profile which is very soft but that is just base water and suggested will not work correctly for mash and yeast health! instead looking at actual target profiles for czech pils i found online, debating between two (one from AHA forum, other from braukaiser) link in the water profile.
be sure to add acid only to the mash.
=============================
7/12/2020
i rushed the end of this brew to have it ready for a trip to nj.
i believe i let it warm to 70 on day 10
cold crashed on day 11
kegged and carbed on day 12
canned on day 13
the cans turned out a little weird once we got to nj. diacetyl or dms or something. maybe a packaging issue.
when i returned home (day 25) the beer is still crisp fresh tasty and now clear.
overall i wouldnt be scared to try this fast fermentation schedule again, it turned out pretty clean. probably would want to start the diacetyl rest earlier and maybe for one more day. and it would be ideal to cold crash for at least a week before kegging. maybe two if you can stand it :-)
=============================
6/24/2020
kind of stuck the beer in the fridge without thinking about fermentation plan. i wish i had done the rustys' fast lager technique (pasted below) but its too late i think.
=============================
6/18/2020
brewed last night. original recipe i had 65% efficiency but came out at like 72. wanted to land at 4.9% but this will be 5.5%. oh well.
i think my efficiency is actually decent for 10-11 lbs grain, then goes down as i add more and more grain.
=============================
6/9/2020
heavily formulated from notes and sample recipe here : https://byo.com/article/bohemian-pilsener-style-profile/
=============================
not sure if i will use this on this brew but for reference, here is rusty's fast lager schedule :
1. 50deg for first 48 hours
2. raise one degree each day for 10 days
3. on day 11, allow temp to free rise to (warmest temp in brewery, but lets just say 70)
4. 9 days later start the cold crash |
