Notes: Start fermentation at 63. Check in 3 - 5 days. If the krausen has dropped and you feel like your past the peak fermentation, raise it up to 70 for a couple more days to get it done. Rack to secondary, have chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon in the secondary and rack ontop of it to ensure to "Stir it in". Keep it here for 2 - 3 weeks.
Add to barrel wait for ever - ENJOY.

Notes: First brew notes on my other version named Sasquatch Christmas Ale: Used dry US05 yeast first time and it went fine. I would prefer using whole spice in secondary if possible. Vanilla beans split and scooped into secondary. The boil spice additions worked great and were subtle.
Dialed back the caramunich and honey malt which are great malts, but a little overpowering. Came out with a lot of chocolatey, coffee and sweet flavor.
Hops - this hop schedule ended up being a little more bitter than expected, but I did enjoy that flavor addition making the overall flavor a bit more complex. |

Notes: THIS BEER TAKES NEARLY 2 MONTHS TO GET HAPPY. BREW IN LATE OCTOBER TO ENJOY FOR CHRISTMAST
STARTER TAKES ONE WEEK TO COMPLETE WITH MY EQUIPMENT
ORIGINAL RECIPE FOUND HERE:
http://www.thebrewerandthebaker.com/archives/19333
STARTER
(calc'ed using brewers friend yeast pitch rate and starter calculator)
Make about 1week before hand.
4 liter starter;
STEP 1: 13.5 oz DME light
boil 4L of water
add DME and stir to dissolve
boil 15 min
cool to 70F
sanitize yeast starter vessel and lid, funnel, scissors, yeast pack etc
pour wort into starter vessel
cover tightly and shake vigorously
add yeast
shake
loosen top so it's not air tight
shake intermittently and leave on table for 24-36 hours
cold crash 24 hrs
decant
STEP 2: use 13.5 oz DME light
boil 3.5+L of water (I'm limited to a 1 gallon starter vessel)
add DME and stir to dissolve
boil 15 min
cool to 70F
add to starter
stir/shake
leave for 24-36 hours
cold crash
decant before pitching into beer
BIAB Method:
MASH
strike temp 162F with 4.5 gallons water
Mash all loose grains for 60-90 min at 150F
Sparge wtih 2.5 gallons at 170F.
Mash and sparge water should amount to about 6.5 gal for the boil
BREWING:
1. Add Northern Brewer hops at 60.
2. Add Golding hops at 45.
3. After fermentation starts, transfer primary to chiller for 7 days at 68F.
4. Meanwhile, add vanilla beans, oak chips, and bourbon to sanitized bowl with lid and let steep in the fridge for the duration of primary fermentation.
5. On day 8, transfer to secondary and add the contents of the bourbon bowl (liquid and all) to secondary fermenter for 21 days at 68F.
6. Bottle or keg, condition for 21 days.
XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX CXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Actual pre boil gravity: 1.068
Had 5 gal post boil so a little lower than expected. Moving kettle I accidentally hit the valve open and lost about 0.25 gallons. I added 0.5 gallons to top off, which would have taken the original to the 5.5 gal mark, actual was 5.25 gal.
Post boil gravity before adding water: 1.076
Post boil gravity post adding water: 1.084
Yeah I don’t get it either. Prob picking up sediment
FG 1.015. That gives this beer about 9% abv. |
