Notes: Mill the grains, mix in the rice hulls and mash hops, and mash at 152°F (67°C) for 60 minutes. Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 7 gallons (26.5 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding Brewers Crystals and Whirlfloc according to the schedule. After the boil, stir or recirculate for about 5 minutes to create a vortex and add the knockout/whirlpool hops (at about 205°F/96°C). Continue to spin, cooling if possible to 180°F (82°C), and add the remaining whirlpool hops. Chill to about 69°F (21°C), oxygenate the wort, and pitch a healthy yeast starter.
Ferment at 72°F (22°C) for a few days, or until the gravity has dropped to about 1.024, then raise the temperature to 75°F (24°C) for a few more days or until fermentation is complete and the gravity has stabilized. Soft crash over 2 days to 56°F (13°C), drop the trub (or rack to secondary), then continue crashing to 34°F (1°C) and drop trub again. Add dry hops. For 3 days, rouse the hops or burp with CO2 once per day to get the hops back into suspension. On the third day, drop trub again. Package and carbonate to about 2.45 volumes of CO2.
BREWER’S NOTES
Mash Hopping: Adding hops to the mash helps beer stability via the alpha and beta acids’ ability to break down metallic compounds that could promote the oxidation of beer (iron, copper, and manganese).
Brewers Crystals: These are a commercially available blend of glucose solids and corn syrup; they are a way to add strength while maintaining body and mouthfeel—similar to malt extract, but without malt flavor.
Bitterness: Don’t worry about it. The IBUs are here to help you dial in quantities, but given the beer’s body and emphasis on whirlpool hops, this beer will not taste like 90-plus IBUs.
Whirlpool: We do our whirlpool hops in two stages just to help the flow of our brew day. However, optionally, you can add all the whirlpool hops at 180°F (82°C), and this will also help to keep the bitterness down.
Cold Dry-Hopping: Because we dry hop at 34°F (1°C), it’s important to rouse the hops once or twice a day, getting them up into the beer where they can extract. The colder temperatures increase the speed at which they will drop to the bottom of your vessel. |

Notes: ==============================
12/3/2021
REPACKAGING Umbrella BSG Sitiva brew into a new hazy featuring Julius huell melon and possibly mosaic and galaxy. these are all hops gifted to me by pixelperfectbrewing. the hops all have dates on them (should record that here) and are packaged well.
will plan to hop with only julius and huell and see how it is. if too bland finish off with 2oz mosaic and 2 oz galaxy.
going to also use hothead or maybe voss for this on time crunch before christmas. will pitch 1st round dry hop same time as yeast.
==============================
12/3/2021
still need to fill in FG. the beer tasted amazing but turned brown after about a week. mustve oxidized during kegging or carbonating (shook keg) but it really tasted great, a lot of tropical fruity flavor and smell. not sure what hops are in this blend. detected a small amount of galaxy in it.
==============================
???
Brew day. Updating to 68% efficiency for 1080 OG. Not sure volume tho
==============================
10/4/2021
removing DME. this will be the first brew on the grainfather so im hoping to not get abysmal efficiency - predicting/bumping efficiency up from 52 to 63 for 7.8%abv.
also starting from primo (RO?) water and building to "light colored and hoppy" BF profile.
==============================
9/30/21
BRANCHING OFF ZAMBA HAZY FOR SITIVA HAZY
pretty much going to brew it the exact same grain bill and hop profile, may leave out the warrior, and using rva 132 instead of kveik.
TODO : need to fill in AA on sitiva
==============================
6/17/21
1.015 measured FG on 6/17/21 for 7.75%abv
==============================
6/10/2021
Brew day. Ended up with too much wort, again. Forgot to cook oats but I did double crush. Still only got 50% eff wtf. Adding 2 lb dme to try to save it. Adjusting the attenuation to convince myself kviek will go down to 1012 and 8%. Bad brew day
==============================
5/14/2021
Initial recipe creation,
grain bill : copying DRIP 3. boosting a little bit. changing eff to 60 i think we should be able to do that especially with cooked oatmeal. pay more attention to volumes. try not to end up with too much wort!
hops : will feature zamba. single hop. composing schedule based on blueberry yum yum. even split between 5 min, flameout, high krausen and standard dry hop (maybe keg)
yeast : prob would be better with london, but will consider kviek
water : thinking i will use tap. acid malt for pH. we have observed better results in west coast with water adjustments, maybe we try here too?
==============================
2/3/2021. Did not make it into feb. Its about 40 days since it was kegged, less than that since canned. The canned beer stoll looks nice and smells and tastes better than some commercial stuff but it's too bitter and lost a lot of spunk. For this next time I think we need to nail down the gravity, nail down the ph. Ditch the warrior and do like a full lb total hops and do like 1/3 hop bill in whirlpool. Try to limit oxidation in transfers but I dont think that is the main problem here. Consider doing some water adjustments. I wonder how the west coast ipa water profile would do for this.
==============================
12212020 updating recipe here to reflect what i did. please reference previous versions of this recipe for the original/correct recipe. realized i didnt have any real citra during brew day so i overloaded on mosaic and used a little citra noble. then in dry hop i did something off script as well cant remember what but i think i mightve done 4 oz citra and 2 oz mosaic?
efficiency was bad, target 1072 actual 1065. bad ph reading. not sure what happened but maybe some issue with water. need to examine water profile from tap and/or build a custom profile from scratch.
==============================
12162020 recipe was drastically changed. Bad ph (4.97. wtf?) on brew day and wrong hops. Anyway also used London 3 new pack with 1 day starter expected 1017 FG instead of reused hothead 1010 FG changing that now.
==============================
11/23/2020
planning for brew 3. last one was indeed way off, not sure why, see theories below. this time bumping up 2row and wheat to get to 8%. thinking about switching from kviek and use regular london just because of my chamber and compatibility with other stuff going on. also thinking about possibly modifying water profile. thinking about brewing 10 gals eek. possibly bumping up the hops?
===============================
10/2/2020
kegged this a couple days ago. really hot with hop burn. and kind of a rubber smell and taste. i wonder if i pushed this kveik too far. also i have not been cleaning it from trub and it could possibly have gelatin protein gunk it in? not sure. prob need to start again with a fresh pitch. anyway the first pint was pretty bad tasting and the second i drank last night was also but a little better. maybe hop burn will subside. its only about 10 or 11 days out from brew day. some ipas taste better after a couple weeks. maybe itll improve.
===============================
9/9/2020
bumped up 2 row from 7.5 to 9.5, boosted up oats. not sure how efficiency will be but im assuming 65% without the oats factored in. with oats added im assuming it drops to 55. could be wrong. maybe the gravity is the problem.
added 4 more oz hops.
TODO : should figure out water...
this has sample profile but has bicarbonate instead of alkalinity :
https://www.clawhammersupply.com/blogs/moonshine-still-blog/juicy-neipa-new-england-ipa-recipe
maybe think about searching brewersfriend for one
===============================
6/28/2020
brewed tue 6/23
dry hopped fri 6/26
cold crash sun 6/28
keg & carb mon 6/29
can tue 6/30
im not finding any research on kveik needing cleanup / diacetyl rest time after terminal gravity?? some places are saying you can rack it 36-72 hours after pitch
===============================
this one is a combination of the hop profile of all the rage
* https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/520206/all-the-rage-conan-alt-mini-mash-30min-
and the grain bill from please come to boston
* https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/978461/please-come-to-boston-neipa
but also using hothead kveik yeast for this thing. this is the first beer with henrico water profile input and pH estimates observed, as such will be adding some acidulated malt to hopefully bring the mash pH down |

Notes: One of Vitamin Sea’s mainstays is Double Summer, a hazy-juicy double IPA powered by Cascade and Citra. It began as one of their first homebrew recipes; here’s a more recent iteration that you can use as your own launch point.
“This recipe was our first recipe that we ever produced at the homebrew scale,” says Dino Funari, cofounder of Vitamin Sea Brewing in Weymouth, Massachusetts. “It’s gone through many revisions through the years, but this will give you a good starting point.”
Mill the grains and mash at 152°F (67°C) for 1 hour. Sparge and top up as necessary to obtain about 6.6 gallons (25 liters) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule. Cool the wort to 170°F (77°C) for whirlpool and add the whirlpool hops. After 15 minutes, chill the wort to 66°F (19°C), aerate well, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at 66°F (19°C) for about 4 days, allowing the temperature to rise to 70°F (21°C) until the gravity stabilizes. Dry hop for 4 days, blanketing the fermentor with CO2 to minimize oxygen exposure. Then crash, package, and carbonate. |
