Notes: Measured OG: 1.040 finished FG: 1.002
ABV 5.0%
Added 2 x jugs cold water to wash out grain after mash hence low efficiency
Verdict: Nice! Very tangerine / mandarin. Think next time pair with another hop. Still very nice but could be complemented with something.

| Notes: improvements for next time- slightly increase crystal malt (can be increased without being cloying because its a dark/medium crystal). use a more characterful british crystal (simpsons 70?). dial down the chocolate malt slightly |

| Notes: Darker, red / amber color compared to standard Pils. Unusual bittering hop for a Pils. Actual yeast used was Wyeast 2252 (Rasenmaher Lager). The DME was actually 'Briess Ultra Light', but probably still 4L. I did nothing with the hard Indy water. Probably not even considered a Pils, just for the water alone! Hence the 'Old Bastage' name. I was too lazy to measure actual gravities, etc. Picture of glass of beer is after 22 days lagered. Beer developed better head and flavor after two more weeks in the bottle. This beer had a unique, complex flavor, It didn't last long once it was done lagering. |

Notes: The base recipe is from Morebeer's Pliny the Elder kit (malts and whole hops). **Note, I added more DME to this calculator to get actual ABV of around 9.45% OG: 1.085, FG: 1.013. Use 0.5 lbs DME, next time I might skip the maltodextrin, the beer tastes slightly sweet but balanced. I also pitched 2x yeast vials.
Oak chips were aged six months on about 5oz of Evan Williams on a full packet (12oz?) oak. This provided a nice smokey flavor and means that I didn't have to sanitize the wood chips. Added oak with dry hop pellets. I feel the oak significantly zapped the hops flavor, beer is balanced or tilting sweet almost. |

Notes: one of many clones, I know. but becoming a favorite in light of how little 3floyds brews/puts on the shelves etc.
1L starter (the day/afternoon before) 1L hot water to dissolve 1/3 cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of the DME. let cool to 80-100 degrees. pitch whole pack of Safale S-04 (optional: and, in addition to the S-04 add about a 1/4 to a half packet of champagne yeast for a higher ABV and a dryer finish)top with air lock or fairly loose bottle top, should see and hear bubble and fermentation within hours (often much sooner) let sit over night.
next day bring 3.5 Gallons (or biggest pot you have with a minimum of like 4" (preferably 6" or more) of clear between top of pot and top of water. to 158 degrees - steep all the (milled) grains.
bring to boil and dissolve the dme and the sugar. when the boil starts to bubble and or foam turn down just a bit to a rolling boil, or just low enough to not boil over while stirring often. add the first 1oz. of hops and start the clock. add an ounce every 10 min after.
cool/let cool and dump into the remaining 2 gallons of cool water (already in the fermenter) cool until approx. 72-78 degrees, pitch / pour in the starter.
let ferment for 1-2 weeks. you could rack it to a secondary after a week, but I've heard and read in blogs etc. that is the preferred method; and after many batches found that leaving it in for a full 2 weeks is just fine.
after 2 week rack into bottling bucket and prime with 3/4 cup corn sugar just prior to bottling.
it's fine to taste at 2 weeks but will be totally ready to go after 4-6. the ABV (shown above) at 8.17% and 123 ibu is a little bit high, but very attainable. I've consistently gotten around 7.56% and right around 100 IBU's every time. (this is 4th batch with very little variation / tinkering with the grain bill a little bit to lighten the color, but little else.)
... So (starting with a pretty easy recipe) a good hearty ale, with a more than substantial ABV and a big hop hit.
enjoy!! |
