Notes: 2017:
Mash temp was 154º.
Boil was 90 minutes.
Spread one can of 100% pumpkin onto a pan lined with tin foil and baked for an hour at 350º.
Added 3 teaspoons of McCormick's pumpkin spice and half the baked pumpkin to the boil at knockout. Forgot to add the half pound of brown sugar. Cooled wort to 10º above pitching temp, and racked to primary. Left for a few hours, and pitched yeast when I got home.
Yeast used was Lallemand London ESB dry yeast.
Fermentation in the closet between 75-73º.
Fermentation began within a few hours of pitching yeast. 12 hours into pitching, fermentation was so strong I couldn't keep a stopper and blowoff tube on the fermenter.
By 48 hours, it appears that all fermentation has stopped, which is normal for this brand of yeast. It's best to add sugar to the kettle with this strain, which I forgot to do, so I'm hoping that it comes out okay.
Taste:
It tastes great! I'd like to tweak the recipe for 2018. Here's the feedback I've gotten so far: One friend said that it's the first pumpkin ale he's had where he can actually taste the pumpkin. It's a bit on the vegetabley side. Another friend said it's got a slight bit of a cider thing going on. My opinion is that it needs less pumpkin, and more body. Need to change the malt bill a little bit. Also I should consider sweetening it with a small amount of sugar in the keg before cold crashing.
Overall I'm happy with it. Friends enjoyed it and were coming back for seconds. I'm definitely in the ballpark with this one, but I'd like to continue to tweak the recipe.
Note: Add flaked oats next time. It needs more body
******************2018********************
By far the best Pumpkilla! yet. Nearly exactly what I wanted it to be. perfectly balanced, a good amount of sweetness, and a delicious taste with just the right amount of spices. The color was exactly what I think a pumpkin beer should look like.
This year, I changed the grain bill, the spices, and the pumpkin. The grain bill is as above. For the spices used 1 tablespoon of pumpkin pie spice that I got from a spice store in Sarasota while I was on vacation. Spice was added at knockout. Their website is: www.spiceandtea.com. In the interest of time, I thought this to be a good compromise between using McCormick's and making your own, and it worked out very well.
Instead of using canned pumpkin, this year I took a butternut squash and peeled it, cubed it, and drizzled it in molasses before baking it in the oven for an hour at 350º. I then added it to the mash.
The only things that can be improved with this recipe is to possibly add a touch more bittering hops, as it it slightly cloying (it is a pumpkin ale after all), and a touch of vanilla. Use beans, not extract. This was a very, very good beer. |

| Notes: Bring 12L water to 72*C and add grains (preferably in a nylon bag). Adjust temp as needed to remain stable at 67*C for 60 min. Shift bag lightly as needed to ensure water has maximum contact with the grains. Prep sparge water by heating 10L water to 76*C. In final 5 min of infusion, raise mash temperature to 76*C for mash out. Lift grains from wort and place in large strainer above the kettle. In batches, slowly sparge the grain bag over the course of 10 min. Boil volume should be close to 22L after sparge. Top off to 23L. Following hop schedule as noted. Add DME at 30 min. Add LME at 15 min, followed by Irish Moss and Servomyces. Cool to <26*C and transfer to fermentor. Aerate and pitch 2L yeast starter. Ferment in primary for 7-10 days, transfer to secondary. Add pasteurized persimmon mash and dry hops in separate nylon bags. Ferment in secondary for 10-14 days or until desired flavor is achieved. |

Notes: Steep Crystal malt in a bag or sock in 2.5 gals water at 155 degrees for about 30 minutes. Slightly squeeze the bag to drain liquid, set aside the bag and bring pot to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the LME and DME stirring to completely dissolve. Return to heat and bring to boil.
As soon as boil begins stir in the Tettnanger hops.
Add honey for the last 30 minutes of boil for a mild honey flavor or the last 10 minutes for a nice aroma
With 10 minutes boil left stir in Vanguard hops, orange peel and whirlflock.
Cool wort, aerate well in the fermenter vessel, top fill to 4g and pitch yeast, Your choice whether to pitch dry or rehydrate.
Your choice as to strain hops with a sock or strainer at pour.
I recommend leaving in fermenter for 21 days then bottle |
