Notes: Produces a good tripel with just enough coriander notes.

Be warned, WPL530 is insane. I fermented 3+ gallons in a 6 gallon fermentor and at one point saw 2.5+ gallons of krausen buildup.

I maintained 68 - 70 deg throughout the fermentation, I saw about an 85% apparent attenuation, not the 77.5% referenced above.

Primed with 4 oz of corn sugar. However, after 2 weeks in the bottle carbonation could be called "weak". Clearly this brew would benefit from fresh priming yeast.

So, this turned out odder than I wanted. Excellent flavor at first, was somewhat sweeter than I wanted. Also a little darker.

Notes: This recipe is nearly the same recipe out of the John Palmer book - "Brewing Classic Styles".
Items I changed or added:
+Melanoidin malt - was not in original recipe
+Increased Honey Malt from 6oz to 8 oz
+Increased Bittering Hops from .75 oz to 1 oz
+The base malt was originally only British malt but I am a poor bastard and I didnt want to go that route so I split it up. It called for slightly more than a pound less than I have but wanted the gravity to be high and still be in style.
_____________________________________________

Tasting Notes:
3/25 - Let this beer sit for a while. I had tastes of it a month ago and it was still young and sweet. The malt really came into its own and was worth the wait. You get just a touch of the really dark caramel/crystal flavor with a lot of sweet bready taste from the Maris Otter and Honey Malt. Would make this again seasonally.

Notes: This yeast was isolated from a beer crafted by a well-known producer of Belgian-style ales in the Northeastern United States. This yeast produces a mildly spicy and earthy flavour and aroma which is complemented by a subtle but magnificent array of fruity esters, including pear and light citrus fruit.
The brewery from which this strain was isolated uses it in a very versatile manner across an array of Belgian styles. We prefer using this yeast for any and all light Belgian beers, including Wit, Belgian Pale and Belgian Blond, in addition to any experimental fruit beers in which a more unique and robust flavour and aroma profile is desired. Expect this yeast to produce a large, thick krausen.
Temperature: 68-73°F
Attenuation: 77-81%
Flocculation: Medium-Low
1L with 100g DME shaken starter should be made 24 hours in advance to guarantee viability.

Pilgrim Hops is a dual use variety with a relatively high alpha acid content at 9.0%-13.0%. This variety comes with a high co-humulone content ranging from 36%-38% which some brewers attribute to a more harsh bitterness profile. The oils are relatively balanced in Pilgrim, and is compared to both Target and Challenger. The increase in aroma from Pilgrim compared to Target is associated with its selinene oil levels at 8.6%, which is sought after for its use in the perfume industry. This along with the other oil make up provides an herbal hoppy essence about it.
Pilgrim hops is versatile and is used from beginning of the boil to finishing. It excels at its yield and the medium to large oval cones are harvested mid to late season. Pilgrim has tolerance and resistance to mildew and wilt, which places it on the sustainability map. It is most widely used in Europe, but that is likely to its failry new introduction to the brewing society of the world.

Alpha 13%-17%. Citra is a new breed of American high alpha-acid hop. Produces fruity, citrus aroma and flavour, with a heavy aroma of tropical fruits (guava, mango, tropical fruit). Typically used in highly hopped American Ales; Pale Ales, IPA's, DIPA's and Barleywines. Most often used as a late addition aroma/flavour hop, but can make for an excellent bittering hop aswell.

Notes: Any pale malt will work. I used pilsner because that's what I had.

Do not boil. Strain, and cool to 120 degrees.
Put 2 to 3 ounces of whole pale malt in a gallon jug and transfer the wort over it. Top up all the way with boiled (deoxygenated) water and cover with plastic wrap and a rubber band. Don't leave more than 1/2 inch of headspace. Hold at 118 degrees for at least 3 days to sour, then it can be stored at room temperature.

Use to acidify the mash of future beers (it should be about 2% lactic acid) and top the jug back up with fresh unhopped wort to keep it going.

Notes: Tuesday 16th Feb 2016 - Proviva starter. 3 packets of svarta vinbär och granatäpple superfrukt added to 800 mL of 1.036 wort (about 50 billion bacteria). Pitch temp = 37oC. Overnight temp dropped to 22oC. pH = 3.55 after 11 hrs. after 20 h pH = 3.30.

Also started a stirplate starter of Mangrove Jack M44 West Coast Ale (packet had been open for 6 months). No activity after 24 hrs.

Wednesday 17th Feb 2016 - Mashed in at 67oC.

20 mins. Stirred mash. 64.8oC. pH = 5.70.
40 mins. Stirred mash. 63.8oC. pH = 5.35.
90 mina. Stirred mash. 63oC. pH. 5.30.

Reduced pH to 4.5 using 80% lactic acid (about 7.5 mL) and then bubbled CO2 through.

Preboil gravity = 1.039.

Pitched the whole lacto starter (which was red!) at 48oC. Wrapped the surface with cling film and left overnight.

9 hrs later. Temp = 40oC. pH = 3.90.
16 hrs later. Temp = 30oC. pH = 3.48

Had to boil due to plans. Would have been better to let it drop to pH 3.3 before boiling.

SG had dropped to 1.032. Must have got a yeast infection(!).

Boiled for 40 mins. Added chiller, yeast nutrient and whirlfloc after 20 mins. Chilled to 20oC and aerated before pitching 1 pack of rehydrated US05 (underpitch) after my M44 starter showed no signs of activity after 2 days...

26L @ 1.033. pH = 3.53.

13L dry hopped with 56g Citra for 3 days and then kegged. FG = 1.006. 3.5% ABV. pH = 3.38.
13L had 2 packets of 120 mL of yuzu juice added and left to ferment for another 5 days.

Sunday 6th March 2016 - Kegged Yuzu Berliner. FG = 1.006. 3.5% ABV. pH = 3.25.
