Notes: Normal mash at 155F, followed by sparge

1 hour boil time

Fermentation with The Yeast Bay Melange sour blend - took yeast from another beer aging in secondary (one thief full dropped right into the wort)

After the initial vigorous fermentation ended (aka saccharomyces fermentation), approximately 3 weeks, transferred to a secondary vessel with 2 cans of peach puree and 2oz of sanitized oak cubes, filling the 5 gallon fermenter all the way up to the neck

Experienced minor blowoff thanks to the fruit puree fermenting

Sampled every 2-3 months until done

Notes: Here’s an easy double decoction Weizenbock that’s HEAVY on the Laidback SoCal attitude. Features a Honey and Chamomile presence with a rich color that says you just tasted some SoCal attitude. The recipe was pulled from a few ingredient designs on the web and the construct was taken directly from Stephen Snyder’s “The Brew-Master’s Bible” where he promotes and explains the purpose and how-to for Decoction Mashing.
The wheat, honey, and chamomile was the focus for flavor and aroma which turned out to be easy on the pallet, but the attitude is all about the 8.6% ABV which keeps in line with the SoCal +ABV standards. The 2 oz. of Chamomile can be inserted a few different ways according to research on the web, I chose to use a hop sack at the 60 min. boil point. Expect a long maturation, I’m now into it for 3 months and will give it another 3 months, but the tasters are keeping me anxious.
Fermentation was vigorous, I used a primary carboy cap with a 3/8 hose to a water bottle bucket. Primary Fermentation: 5-7 days @ 55°-68° F, Secondary Fermentation: 1-4 weeks @ 40°-45° F.

Notes: Next round of this I will be adding more white cocoa powder and dehusked carafa II in place of the regular carafa II.

It also needs a little bit more body, will probably mash higher next time.

Also need a little more color, would probably add a bit of chocolate malt to darken it up.

Notes: Double Decoction:

*Note: Pilsner Urquell uses a triple decoction method with an initial acid rest, but I use well enough modified malts and correct for pH already so the first of three decoctions is unnecessary. The decoction measurements below are ones I developed for an electric system and err on the side of caution, so they are the lower amounts needed to potentially reach the next temperature step and direct heat can be applied to compensate.*

Perform a protein rest at 125F for 15min, then pull off slightly less than 1/3 (1.16gal/4.4L) of the thickest mash and place it in a separate pot. Bring the pot slowly up to 158F and hold for 15min, then slowly bring it up to a boil and proceed to boil for 10min. Stir often so the grains do not burn, but try to allow some 'browning' to help darken the colour and enhance the flavour/aroma profiles. Add the decoction back to the 125F mash, little by little, aiming for a beta rest temperature of 148F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. After this has finished, pull off roughly 1/6 (0.7gal/2.6L) of the thickest mash a second time and place it in the separate pot. Slowly bring the pot up to a boil and continue to boil for 10min. Add the second decoction back to the mash, little by little, aiming for an alpha rest temperature of 158F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. Once this rest has finished, raise the temperature up to a mash out rest of 167F and hold for 10min. After the decoctions and mash out are finished proceed to sparge/lauter as usual.

No Decoction:

Instead of the labour intensive double decoction mash schedule you could:

- Substitute some of the pilsner malt for vienna and/or munich to add colour and depth.
- Include some melanoidin malt for a slight decoction 'feel'.
- Add some carapils malt (or your preferred alternative) for improved head retention.
- After which, just carry out a temperature/infusion mash schedule based on your preferences.

**This beer won a national silver medal at the Saskatoon Headhunters Competition (2017) and has consistently scored 40's at other national competitions.
