Notes: Combined both yeasts listed above, rehydrated as asked on the back of the package, and pitched into the beer. Ferment at 64 F deg. After two full days of aggressive fermentation it still needs a couple more days to complete fermentation.
Then I'll start with the dry hop editions. |

Notes: Keep mash pH at 5.6 and sparge water pH at 6.0.
Finalize water profile with Gypsum, Calcium Chloride, and Chalk, split between mash and boil, to take city water to desired water profile (Ca: 66; Mg: 30; Na: 48; S04: 56; Cl: 72; HCO3: 112).
Mash at 152° F for 90 minutes. Raise mash to 168° F and sparge out.
Fermentation:
Start cool at about 50°F, and hold there for the first forty-eight hours. For every day thereafter, increase your temperature by 1°F for ten days. After it’s been in the fermentor for twelve days, it should be at a steady 60°F. Activity in the airlock should be low (but not absent). Raise to 65'F for diacetyl cleanup for 3 days. After fermentation is complete (estimate 3 weeks) cold-crash to begin the clearing process.
Bottle conditioning:
Raise the temperature after bottling back to room temperature to encourage appropriate bottle fermentation, then place it in a dark, cold corner for at least six weeks.
Carb at 2.4 vols and let sit for another 4+ weeks to lager. |

| Notes: The recipe is based off an Aletoberfest from chop and brew. It turned out to be a bit of fridge cleaner beer as I used up some leftover hops and specialty grains. Fermented in a swamp cooler/well insulated bucket that kept temperatures low and stable started around 52F and slowly brought it up to 59-60 after 1 week in primary. After week 2 let it rise a little higher to low 60's. Am planning on lagering in secondary trying to get the temp down into the 40's for a couple of weeks. The 90 minute boil evaporated around 2.5/3 gallons, so I topped it off with 1 gallon of water at the end of boil. |

| Notes: Much of the beer's unique flavor does come from Special B which gives a nice caramelized fruit character to the brew and the lactose helps keep the mouthfeel thick even with the brown sugar which, through fermentation, could potentially add dryness to the beer. Other malts we use in it include crystal 40L and english brown malt. I think one key ingredient that we use though is the yeast. We have two "house" yeast here, 01 Cali yeast and 28 scottish yeast and we use the later on cold crash. 28 adds a nice subtle ester and slight musky character to the beer and I think it helps complement the other notes from the specialty malts and adjuncts. Our hops don't play a huge character in the brew but if you are dying to know what they are, it's bittered with CTZ and has Palisade later on but they really are there mostly for balancing. |
