Notes: IMPORTANT: Add honey at end of boil, flame out.
The whirlpool herbs (hop list) is a steep of no less than 10 mins or more added end of Boil.
I use a nylon mesh straining bag that I can add herbs to through out the process.
Ancient Notes:
This is a conversion of my Wee Heavy / Scotch Ale Braggot. Instead of Hops it's using more ancient traditional herbs. The Heather is considered for bittering while Meadowsweet is also commonly found in mead and ales.
You can add .10 Kent Golding Hops at 60 mins to get more modern bittering effect.
This is an experimental recipe! Built using tea tests. It may need tweaking to get the herbs flavors to show or maybe reduce them!
Optional: Remove Meadow Sweet for Heather only ale.
Optional: Dry hop with Heather after fermentation.
Optional: Skip Co2 phase because most likely ancient ales were flat :( I'll be carbonating.
Wort Notes:
After 45-60 min Mash I sparged the BIAB with a pour over 32oz warm water. This makes total boil slightly more than 2 gallons.
Optional: Start of boil pull 2 cups wort and separately boil down into syrup. Then add this back in to the boiling wort.
Do a Yeast starter using 6g of GoFerm and 5g Safale yeast early into brew so it has time to start.
Style Notes:
After lots of searching the feedback i got is a Scotch Ale or Wee Heavy is a good place to start for a Braggot. Recipe is Shooting for 50% honey so I can feel like it's a Braggot.
The Wee Heavy style suggests longer boil times to get more malty flavors. So I am starting with 2 gallons and a 90 minute boil, targeting 1 gallon. You may need to add more water as you go to keep in line. Use a dip stick to measure.

Notes: Soaking 2 oz of Heavy toasted oak chips in 10 oz of Capt Morgan Black, spiced rum. will let them soak for 2 months then rack the beer on top and let set for 2 months.
Brewed on 12/11/16 OG 1.084, volume in fermentor is 3 Gallons. not sure if it was mash efficiency as I forgot to take a pre boil reading.
The sample I took for the OG tasted fantastic. pitched yeast at 64 F, set fermentation at 68 F.

Notes: Last year (2017) I used 40% Vienna and it was tasty. This year (2018) I might go with 25% Munich which will be about the same color and we'll see how the flavor profile turns out.
2018-8-2 tweaked the recipe a bit to match Helles Exportbier for a 2fer.
2019: pils + ~30% munich
2022: 15% munich; going a bit lighter with the munich
72g split between saphir and tettnang turns this into a pilsner! not a bad thing, but altering the recipe to 2g/L instead of 3 and changed to Mittelfruh. also changed munich back to ~30%
2024: did about 12% munich and was more of a pils still. planning on some test batches with 20% munich plus some late hops to get a more malty and hoppy end result and still be helles-like. |

Notes: Double batch was brewed on 12-31-16.
Boil kettle #1 - 10 gal Mega Pot
Boil kettle #2 - 7 gal stainless steel pot
Additional water was added to the pre-boil pot to compensate for losses in evaporation and absorption. We were shooting for roughly a 6-8% loss in water volume during the boil process.
The cascade hops were added at the 55 minute mark or 5 min boil time instead of 10 min. We wanted to retain more of the hop essential oils and aromas in the wort.
The beer had quite a bit of sediment/trub in the pot as we experienced a few clogged hoses and a clogged pickup tube during the racking process from the boil kettle to the fermenter. Most of the sludge was due to hop material that had absorbed liquid wort. Next time it would be worth the effort to contain the hops in a cheesecloth bag or some type of strainer vessel.
10 gal brew pot #1 had additional water added after the boil to bring up the volume to roughly 5 gal. Not sure why there was a significant difference between pot #1 and pot #2 with regard to water losses during the boil. Perhaps pot #1 had a more vigorous boil.
Post-boil gravity was 1.075 in a 70 degree room.
Racked beer to keg on 1-22-17. Initial tasting was excellent. |
