Notes: boil for 60min. to get DMS for raw flavor.
In fermentation, pitch and hold at a steady 50°F (10°C) for the first 5 days, then start increasing the temperature. Once you’ve reached terminal gravity (about 1.011), get it packaged up and ready to drink!
Kellerbier, also Zwickelbier, is a type of German beer which is often not clarified or pasteurised. Kellerbier can be either top-or bottom-fermented. The term Kellerbier literally translates as "cellar beer", referring to its cool lagering temperatures, and its recipe likely dates to the Middle Ages |

Notes:
Split into 2 x 5 gallon batches
1) 2 pks Lalvin Narbonne Yeast (71B-1122) - rehydrate each seperately with goferm
2) De-core and puree apples (add half to each fermenter)
- 2 lbs Red Delicious, 2 lbs Fuji, 2 lbs Golden Delicious, 2 lbs Gala, 2 lbs Granny Smith
3) Top off to 4 gallon mark with spring water
4) Heat honey to aid in mixing, add 6lbs to each fermentor), mix with degasser
5) Add 1pk of rehydrated yeast to each fermentor once temperature is correct, mix again with the degasser
6) Ferment with no air lock for 5-7 days
7) after 5-7 days add 1 gallon apple juice (no preservatives - pasteurized is ok) to each fermentor, stir gently, reseal and add airlock
8) Once fermentation stops transfer to secondary and age for 1 month to clarify
9) Add 2 oz american medium toast oak cubes (taste once per week until desired oak flavor)
10) Cold crash or continue to age until desired clarity is reached
11) Back sweeten and mix gently with tart cherry juice in bottling bucket (1 cup at a time until desired cherry flavor is reached)
Note: tart cherry juice can be added to secondary fermenter if an additional agent is added to kill fermentation completely. Idea is to not ferment the tart cherry juice and use it to back sweetening.

Notes: Grains are double ground (purchased ground then finely ground using Corona style mill).
Method is all grain but using BIAB bag so no concerns with stuck splarge.
Batch splarge method used.
Re circulation during mash.
Hops added and kept in hop spider.
Oak chips prepared by boiling in boiling water for 3 mins then discarding then pouring boiling water over again once and discarding.
Recipee turned out very smooth, complex and incredibly rich. I will definitely brew again, probably drop the cinnamon as doubt it adds much and up the vanilla. A real treat of a brew.
On day 4, cinnamon stick, oak chips, split vanilla pod and cacao nibs were covered in 50ml Jack Daniels and 50ml Dalmore whiskey. Left overnight.
Drained and contents put into hop bag the following morning and fresh coffee brewed on top (using Nespresso Vertuoline machine). Alto dolce capsule used (414 ml fresh strong coffee). Left to cool then added to primary on day 5.
Less priming sugar used for porter added to mini-keg barrels (some bottled). Used N20 rather than CO2 for dispensing
1st Brew:
Got a higher efficiency than expected - 1.07 (1.06 preboil) from above grain bill. Sadly lost about 4l in a massive boil over in the past 5 minutes of the boil when adding protofloc.
Final gravity 1.024 which is only 64% attenuation
Think I left it on the primary too little time but ABV still 6.04%. Gonna check readings in another week and then look to bottle and age. |
