Notes: Steep in 1 gallon water @ 150F for 45 min
Primary 3 weeks.
Dry hop 7-10 days.
Bottle condition 2-3 weeks.
Pours a golden almost copper with a slight haze. Good head that stays to the end. Smells ridiculously hoppy with grapefruit and almost tropical tones. Taste is hop forward but with enough malt and mouthfeel to balance. Rye gives it a nice crispness. Tastes like a west coast style IPA.

Notes: Used 1 package (11.5 grams) of Safale s-04 - Fermentis -English Ale yeast.

The flavoring additions are all added to the secondary. Below are my methods for adding these additions:

Reserve three pints or so of the wort as you rack to the secondary.

After racking, make a slurry using the cocoa powder and one pint reserved wort. Boil the slurry stirring continuously to prevent scorching, then let cool. Add the cocoa/wort slurry to the secondary that day stirring gently to mix but not aerate/oxidize the wort.

After adding cocoa slurry, make a second, separate slurry using the PB2 (peanut butter powder) and two pints of reserved wort. Boil the slurry stirring continuously to prevent scorching, then let cool. Next mix 8 oz of vodka or other neutral spirit and put into a sanitized container and store until ready to add to secondary (about two weeks after racking to secondary).

After about a week in the secondary add the cacao nibs (soaked in vodka at least 24 hours before).

After six weeks in the secondary add two split vanilla beans (soaked in vodka at least 24 hours before) and let sit for another two weeks before packaging.

So to sum up: add the cocoa slurry the day of racking to the secondary; add the cacao nibs 1 week later; add the PB2 slurry a week later; add the vanilla beans one month later. Let sit for additional two weeks and package (so two months after racking to secondary). Let beer condition for another two months. It will take time fort he flavors to come together/mellow out, which is why it's best to let this one sit for awhile.

Notes: pick up irish moss

4 packets of yeast

the colder you start out, the less the diacetyl that is produced
Let it go for 12 hrs at 40 degrees. creep up to 50 degrees by 48 hrs

Steve's thoughts: I don't entirely agree with his fermentation method
mostly because normally you would actually do what's called a diacetyl rest
because SOME "will" be produced, so what you do is raise the temp after ferm is mostly finished, to let the yeast eat those byproducts basically
so you could follow his schedule, let it sit at 50 for a week or two, then raise to 65 or even 70 for 2 days to finish of the diacetyl
THEN down to lagering temps (close to freezing as you dare)

2. After 14 days, then raise temperature to 57-62 F for remainder of fermentation.

3. When final gravity is reached, lager for 1 month:
- Begin at 45 F and decrease the temperature by two degrees every two days for 2 weeks until
a final temperature of 34 F is reached.
- Leave at 34 F for at least 2 weeks.

4. Bring beer to 60 F for 3 days prior to bottling to ensure fermentation is complete.

Notes: IMPORTANT: Add honey at end of boil, flame out.

Wort Notes:
After 45-60 min Mash I sparged the BIAB with a pour over 32oz warm water. This makes total boil slightly more than 2 gallons.

Optional: Start of boil pull 2 cups wort and separately boil down into syrup. Then add this back in to the boiling wort.

Style Notes:
After lots of searching the feedback i got is a Scotch Ale or Wee Heavy is a good place to start for a Braggot. Recipe is Shooting for 50% honey so I can feel like it's a Braggot.

The Wee Heavy style suggests longer boil times to get more malty flavors. So I am starting with 2 gallons and a 90 minute boil, targeting 1 gallon. this also allows for the syrup above. You may need to add more water as you go to keep in line. Use a dip stick to measure.

I made a Yeast starter using 6g of GoFerm and 5g Safale yeast.

Finished Notes:
Wort ready at 1 gallon and SG of 1.080 NICE!

next time: Might swap Munich for Victory to see difference in dryness.

Turned out great at 1.010. Honey fermented clean (not too hot) I left in fermenter for 18 days before bottling. It was good and drinkable after being bottled for 3 weeks. I am told aging makes it even better so I will save the rest for a couple months..

Optional, Danstar bottle condition yeast and priming sugar when bottling - depends on how long your secondary aging ends up being. Over 4 months and more yeast may be required for carbonation.

Notes: When sparging bring 5 gallons into the boil kettle and stop sparge. Boil the 5 gallons of wort for 15 minutes to get good carmelazation stiring often. Then finish the sparge.

Notes: Gonna kettle sour with wyeast 5335. Full notes below.

1-2 day kettle sour with either WLP672 brevis (2.5 billion, 110f) or Omega plantarum oyl-605 (150 billion, 90f) or wyeast 5335 (10 billion, 95f). Need about 30-100 billion cells.

0.5 liter 1.04 lacto starter 24 hours before keep at recommended temp and swirl but don't areate unless brevis. Add 5g-10g chalk an ounce of pasteurized Apple juice and some yeast nutrients if desired.

OR, make a 0.5 l starter with 2 tsp of non fat Greek plain yogurt and do it all at 110f...
- To sour 5 gallons of wort with yogurt, make a 1 liter batch of unhopped starter wort the day before brew day. Add 2-4 teaspoons of live yogurt to the starter wort. Maintain a 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C) temperature for about 24 hours. On brew day, and after the 24 hour sour starter is finished, mash and sparge a low IBU wort as normal, boil for a few minutes, and then chill the wort down to 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C). Pitch the yogurt starter into the wort, and hold the temperature as close to the 100-110°F (37.8-43.3°C) range as possible. Bubbling CO2 through the wort is advised if possible to prevent potential off flavors, but is not required. Within 24 hours, the wort should be down in the 3.x pH range. Boil the wort, adding any hops that the recipe calls for, yeast nutrient, etc., and then cool the wort down to Saccharomyces pitching temperatures. Bob's your uncle! [2]

Refer to milk the funk wiki. And other sour kettling articles.

sanitize wort first by bringing to boil before lowering to lacto pitchign temp

consider loweing hte ph to 4.5 using lactic acid before pitching the lacto (add about 2-3ml lactic)

let the lacto go until ph = 3.5-3.6
