Notes: # Dry hopping
Dry hopped at 6 C for 24 hours
# Tasting notes
Cold hopping works out very well, adds a wonderful nose to the beer. Very easy drinker.
# Criticisms
Some people expected a wheat beer to be sweeter, so maybe bump up the malty notes or decrease first sacc rest time. |

Notes: Recipe is taken from James Morton's book 'Brew'. He recommends overpitching the yeast for the most banana esters, which combining with the caramel from the malts give the Banoffee flavour. Mango Jacks description for this yeast seems to suggest that most malt character is stripped away during fermentation. We shall see. The result ought to be a very tasty beer in any case.
1.052 preboil..way off. Think this is due to my mash tun overshooting on the mash temp. Often sits above 70...
1.048 OG....1.8 litres chilled water added after boil
4 litre sparge. 2 litres tap water added during boil.
(Using new hop spider and wort level did not come up high enough to submerge the bottom of the hop spider)
20 litres into the fermentor.
Sample gravity at Day 5 1.016...wow...this yeast is a monster. Will test again on day 8.
No movement, so bottled on day 8. Sample tasted very nice. Can't to taste it after a week. Will there be banana?
1 week post bottling there was detectable banana but not loads. But a very complex and sumptuous, thick beer. Two weeks after bottling and, oh my word, this is something very special. Such a rich toffee flavour. Deep and satisfying. Perfect Xmas brew. Will definitely do again. Will rename to Toffee-bomb dunkelweizen. |

Notes: I started a full volume mash at 159 - too hot, and my kettle held it to 152 in 60 minutes...so I lost about 1.1 degrees per hour, but this was the first brew with a new double wall kettle. I was surprised that I didn't lose 3-5 degrees initially, but that didn't happen.
I used 4 gallons of 8.8 alkaline water and 2.5 gallons of Zero water.
12 hours in, little activity. 6 hours later - I have a decent krausen started - no CO2 production yet, so it is still reproducing. Fermentation temp is set to 63.
I had good fermentation, started 24 hours after pitching. Fermentation was basically complete 5-6 days later. I left it a few more days but did not do a diacetyl rest since this is US-05 and US-05 doesn't usually produce a lot of diacetyl. I cold crashed on Dec 24 to 38. I ended up at 1.006. After 2 days, I am ready to transfer to keg and set pressure to 12 psi. |

Notes: Combine all ingredients, mix, and aerate thoroughly with a kitchen mixer or immersion blender. Creating about 1 quart more than 5 gallons of must will allow you to completely fill your secondary 5-gallon carboy while leaving behind all of the lees. Stir vigorously with each addition to de-gas the mead. Transfer to secondary when fermentation has completed (21–28 days, may be slightly longer for 1056 yeast). Age 6–12 months. If the mead has not cleared completely, you can fine with Sparkolloid per manufacturer’s instructions. One more racking will help minimize sediment in your finished bottles. Bottle only after all signs of fermentation activity have ceased. |

Notes: This is a nod to the original IPAs, but with modern tastes in mind. Of course, with the German malt it won't be an accurate replica.
The use of Kent Goldings should showcase this hop well and the malt can shine too.
Ironically, modern UK IPAs lack the insane hoppy punch (170 ibu's!) they originally had. I've kept the ibu low in keeping with modern tastes. |
