| Notes: Inspiration was SN's Beer Camp Belgian Black IPA from Fall of 2013. Target FG should be much lower...toward .012 - .013. I would ferment at the low end for 3 - 5 days, then raise the temp to let the yeast shine through over another 10 days...once FG has been reached, dry hop for 5 - 7 days before bottling. |

Notes: I have never used Zythos hops before, but thought I would give them a try as I received 6 oz. free from Williams Brewing.
Steeped crystal 40 at 155F for 25 min., then began boil. Bulk of extract was added as late addition.
I pitched onto half of the yeast cake from prior beer that I was bottling the same day. The yeast was one pack of Nottingham and one Wyeast 1272 Amer.Ale II.
Four weeks in primary, no secondary fermenter. Dry hopped with 2 oz. Zythos pellets for last 10 days. I just threw them in loose.
At bottling time the beer had a pleasant pineapple/citrus smell. Primed with 5 oz. of cane sugar.
Starting gravity was 1.073 and finished at 1.017
This was just a test of some zythos hops that I had and it turned out good, but not great. I would like a hoppier and less sweet beer so next time I will be making some changes. I will half the crystal and use something like magnum to bitter with and add some simcoe along with the zythos for flavor/aroma.
10 months later...this beer actually smoothed out and was pretty decent, too bad i was on my last bottle. |

Notes: After 8 days of primary fermentation did a diacetyl rest for 2 days at 65 degrees. Rack to secondary on top of thawed frozen blueberries and left for 10 days. Removed blueberries and slowly dropped to lagering temps. Lagered at 38 degrees for 4 weeks.
The .5oz of extract at bottling really makes the blueberry aroma come out in the beer. A clean lager with nice smooth not too sweet blueberry flavor. Hops are pretty interchangeable as the blueberry gives most of the flavor and aroma. |

Dough-in Grains to achieve 122* protein rest
Decoction #1
Remove 10 qts of mash (mostly grain with little mash water) and heat in second kettle. Stop heat and hold decoction for 10 minutes at 151* for starch conversion. After 10 minutes, bring to boil and constantly stir for 5 minutes. Add back boiled decoction to mash tun until mash temp reaches 148*
Decoction #2
Remove 7 qts of mash (mostly grain with little mash water) and heat in second kettle. Bring to boil and constantly stir for 5 minutes. Add back boiled decoction to mash tun until mash temp reaches 156*
Note: If any decoction remains from the boil, add it back throughout the 40 min rest to maintain mash tun temperature or when the boiled decoction cools to 156*
Fermentation Note: Pitch 100 billion cells of WLP 300 onto chilled wort for initial fermentation (DO NOT MAKE A STARTER - UNDER-PITCHING IS KEY!) Ferment at 60* for 72 hrs.
After 72 hrs, raise temperature to 68* until airlock activity becomes minimal.
After airlock activity becomes minimal, reduce temperature to 60* for the remaining primary fermentation. No secondary fermentation is required, Rack to keg or bottle condition.
