Notes: stole the recipe from mad fermentationist... modified the hops
cherries were a mixture of tart and sweet totaling 8lb.
strike temp lower than anticipated. Mash began at 148. raised to 155 over 40 minutes and held at 155 for 30.
left with a lower OG than anticipated but have near 6 gallons worth after starting with roughly 10 gallons
11/23/16 FG 1.024 but still working when i added the cherries and chips |

Notes: The flaked oats were slightly toasted in the oven @ 150°C
Secondary (4 weeks):
First 2 weeks:
- 200g Almonds (chopped, 20 min @150°C in the oven) in a bag
- 2x vanilla beans (pre-soaked in vodka for 2 weeks) along with:
3 tonka beans (one of them grated)
Hungarian and American medium toasted oak cubes/chips (about 60g together, little bit more of the american)
- 20g cocoa nibs and 1 grated tonka bean (both toasted in the oven for about 10 minutes @ 150°C)
Second 2 weeks:
- Took out the almond bag and put another 200g in (chopped, 30-40 min @ 150°C in the oven)
My OG was 1.112 and the FG was 1.044 of which I am uncertain why that happened. 2 packs of yeast should have been enough, and I don't recall any problems with mashing. So the alc. was 9%
Before bottling I couldn't refuse to sample it a few times in secondary, it tasted and smelled SO GOOD I could drink it right away. It was really marzipany/almondy, desserty, chocolatey...
Bottled amount was 12 liters, 2.0 Co2/vol
At first I was a little bit let down because the aroma was not nearly as strong as it was in the secondary. There was no alcohol burn, it simply wasnt very strong in aromas and flavours as mch as I expected. I didn't get the 'marzipan' feel really... it was still delicious though.
After aging for 3-4 months is where it really started to taste as I anticipated... started to get more and more of the marzipan/almond, chocolate popped up a lot more too. Much much stronger in the aromas and flavours, just what I was missing in it's younger state.
Now it really is a marzipan beer! :)
This is my mastercraft! |

| Notes: 1/2/22-(2nd time I have made this, taking more careful notes this time) 5G of apple cider into fermenter at 1.040, with Premier Cuvee yeast. It took a couple days to wake up, as I have it set for 60F, the bottom of the comfortable fermentation range. Fermented until 1/6/22 and added the blackberry puree. Moved to Red Wine Barrel on 1/13/22, checked FG and flavor. May want to back sweeten as the blackberry is more aroma than flavor. Still good though, and still needs full carbonation. 3/13/22-Moved to keg for carbonation. |

| Notes: Brewed 11/4/16. Strike was about 170F and I hit 155F. Cooled with 2 cups of water and about 1gal of re-circulation.This brought it down to 151F after about 10min. Sparge went pretty well and I collected about 8.75gal(probably a little less), and cut it at about 2brix. The boil off of the first gal of wort went well. I believe I got about 3 cups form the gallon. Brew kettle efficiency was 76% but that was without the gallon of first runnings. I think I collected about 5.75gal but it might have been slighlty shy but it's above the sticker. Overall the brewhouse efficiency was good which probably was form the extra sparge and maybe the higher mash pH. Pitching temp stabilized at about 64F. 11/5/16 temp drifted up to 67F over the day and was cooled by to 64F by evening time. 11/6/16 beer was sitting at about 69F by morning (little high but probably fine) so cooled it down and by evening it was at about 65F. 11/7/16 the fermentation has slowed down substantially (e.g. no more krausen) and temp is sitting at about 67F. Biofined and gravity sample on 11/28/16. |
