| Notes: Tea additions should be made at Flameout and during secondary fermentation. Tea-bags can be substituted instead of whole leaf and petals. 4 bags at flameout and 6 bags in secondary. Monitor daily when dry-hopping with the tea bags and rack off when you hit the desired profile, as the flavor can intensify quickly. A warm ferment and a long secondary are essential to a good saison. |

| Notes: Taking a clone of Cigar Brewing's Jai Alai and turning it into an apple IPA. Not sure if it will work, but it sounds amazingly fun to try. Doing the initial brew at 4 gallons then putting the cooled wort onto the cider in the primary, along with the dry Simcoe hops after a week. |

Notes: Obtaining the enzyme extract:
after 30 min at 60 C pull and filter 500 ml of wort. Cool it (possibly in an ice bath) and put aside. Use that enzymatic active wort to wake up the yeast and then add it to the beer along with the yeast. It will continue the breakdown of dextrins during primary fermentation.
NOTE: Don't bottle condition this beer unless you you know if the breakdown of dextrins is complete. |

Notes: Muntons Wheat DME is 55% Wheat, 45% Barley Malt
Using the above assumptions, fermentable quantities adjusted to achieve ~20% Wheat Malt.
After first 24 hrs of fermentation, raise temp. to 78-80 deg F.
Submitted bottle for pre-qualification tasting for 2015 Indian Valley Beer festival homebrew competition. Out of 25 entries, was 1 of 12 chosen to go to the event.
BJCP beer judges comments:
Farmhouse beer, a lot of carbonation, fantastic spicey character, almost too spicey for a Grisette. Doesn't taste table strength. Good heavy minerality. Exemplifes the yeast character well. Mineraly astringent finish. A little chalky. Overall good.
Turned out great! Won 1st place Popular vote and 1st place Judge's vote at 2015 Indian Valley "Brews for Books" Beer Festival. |

Notes: This is a quick kettle sour. It's ideal for anyone who doesn't want to risk "contaminating" their brewing equipment with bacteria.
Make up a lacto starter (*); I use Water Kiefer as the source.
Mash as normal and bring to the boil, then flameout immediately and allow to cool down 38 C. Pitch lacto starter and purge kettle headspace with CO2. Maintain temp. Sample every 12 hrs or so to monitor lacto progress. Once it's sour enough, bring the kettle back up to the boil and continue your brewing process as normal.
* Lactobacillus Starter Method
Combine the following ingredients to a liter of filtered water and boil for 15 minutes:
90 grams Dry Malt Extract
20 grams Dextrose (Glucose)
10 grams Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3 / chalk)
1 gram Yeast Nutrient or DAP (diammonium phosphate)
- Cool this starter solution down to around 38 C and add 100 ml of filtered water kefir.
- Seal the flask with a rubber stopper and airlock to prevent additional oxygen from entering the starter solution.
- Let it stand (covered) until pH reaches about 3.4 (5 days in my case), it will vary a lot depending on room temp.
- If you have a means of providing a temperature controlled environment, optimal growth is typically between 30 and 40 C. |
