Notes: Belgian Candi a stand-in for 6lbs of bocheted honey; the different amount makes up for the greater sugar in the apple juice I used to reach the same OG.
Honey was bocheted on med/low heat over charcoal flame (grill) for ~1.5hrs, until very dark. Pasteurized apple juice (Kirkland brand) was used to dissolve the honey, and the mixture was added to the carboy with enough additional apple juice (5 gal total apple juice) to reach the final volume. Two packets of Nottingham yeast were re-hydrated in one small pack (~12g) GoFerm-PE, and pitched.
Fermaid O/K and DAP were added in staggered additions over the first week according to the schedule given by https://www.meadmakr.com/batch-buildr/: 4.5g Fermaid O @ 24 & 24 hrs, 5g Fermaid K & 2g DAP @ 72 hrs & 1/3 sugar break.
As my temperature controlled chamber was full, fermentation was carried out in a water bath/swamp cooler and further cooled with ice bricks. Over the course of active fermentation the temperature varied more widely than I would have liked, but stayed within 65f-80f.
Fermentation was visibly active during primary for ~2 weeks, and the must was racked to a secondary fermenter (onto 1/4 tsp of K-meta) after ~3.5 weeks. Secondary fermentation lasted a further 3 weeks during which Fermfast-Dualfine and Pectinase were used to further clear the must, though the Pectinase didn't seem to have any effect on a persistent haze and the Dualfine was particularly effective. At the end of secondary fermentation the must was cold crashed before being racked into a keg (onto a further 1/4 tsp of K-meta), carbonated, and bottled in 22oz longnecks.
The finished product is clear, the color of a bock or dark amber ale, and is very drinkable; while the bochet could have aged months longer, it still carries notes of dark stone fruit and toffee. |

Notes: I pitched a London Ale 3 and 1056 rather than doing a starter.
167 strike temp worked well to get me just above 155
I let the water cool off too much before the whirlpool. Should have added at 180. Next time don't run the wort chiller after flame out.

Notes: Tuesday 10th May 2016 - Starter made and run on the stir plate for 18h before chilling
Wednesday 11th May 2016 - Brewday
Heated 24L of adjusted water to strike temp
Strike water = 70C
Mash in temp = 66C
Mash pH low again! 5.1 despite only adding half the calculated acid (avangard pilsner malt?). Added a small amount of bicarbonate to correct the mash pH.
Approx 19L at 1.050. pH 5.30. Pitched decanted yeast starter at 17C.
Had in temp controlled fridge at 18C for 3 days before raising the temp to 21C.
Thursday 19th May 2016 (Day 9) - FG = 1.010. pH = 4.08. ABV = 5.25%.
CO2 transferred into DH keg with 100g Mosaic. Shook keg and bubbled CO2 through liquid out twice a day for 2 days.
Saturday 21st May (AM) - Started to crash DH keg.
Tuesday 7th June 2016 - Keg kicked.... |

After 15 mins mash temp = 66oC. Mash pH = 5.4. After 30 mins mash temp = 64.
19L @ 1.049. 65% Efficiency. Diluted with 1.5L water to 1.045... Pitched a small active starter of WLP090. Aerated with a whisp and fermented at 25oC...
Tuesday 25th August 2015 - FG = 1.011. 4.5% ABV. Kegged with 4 g/L of Dry Hops (80g Cascade). Keg purged with CO2 from liquid tube to agitate hops. Keg left at ambient temp.
Bubbled CO2 through the keg from the liquid tube to rouse the hops once a day for two days
Thursday 27th August - Moved keg to keezer for conditioning and to carbonate. |

Notes: Steep grains in cold 4L then mini-mash in 4L water at 65c for 60 mins then sparge with 1L at 76c. Use dash of PH leveller.
Add 2.8l of water to make 7L for boil - after 800ml absorption loss.
Yeast enzyme and whirlfloc added last 5 mins of boil.
Add dextrose, candi sugar and LME at end of boil. LME added to fermenter with around 1.8 boiling water.
Aerated wort with air stone for 15 minutes.
Made 2 step yeast starters for this brew. 1 litre to a 2.5 litre. Swirl regularly. pitched at 21c.
2 + 1 + 1 litre ice blocks. Chilled water in 2 containers for 8 litres to chill wort - remembering yeast starter will add around 300ml of volume. Still needed more ice to hit lower temp. Only hit 22c.
Used hop bag during boil.
Got 70% efficiency from grains but final OG was lower than calculated 1089 instead of 1091. PPG of extract was lower than expected.
Ferment around 17 degrees. In fermenter 20/9/15. Gravity at 1030 on 28th. 1020 on 3 October.
Bulk condition 2-3 weeks following completion of fermentation - stayed at 1020. Added reydrated pack of Abbaye Yeast on 16th October to try and get a little more attenuation.
Bottled 25/10.
Finished way too sweet - not enough attenuation. Needed much more sugar and probably remove the brown sugar and/or honey - other than that the recipe was great. |
