                | Notes: Made this before. Can't achieve lager temps so I use US-05 and ferment around 62-64 f then raise up to about 70 after 10 days, then put in my fridge and bring down to about 42 F for 2 days. Bottle, and let sit for a month before drinking.  I used clarity ferm, and this stuff came out clear as can be. If you want less hop presence then omit the 10 min cascade addition. The 1 oz of blackprinz is to add color, but no real harsh flavor. 
 Can't get yuengling in California... So this is the next best thing.
 
 Added blackprinz and vienna malt to try to get the color and flavor of Yuengling Lager. .
 
 Awesome lawnmower beer.  Wish I could make 10 gallon batches of this at a time

                | Notes: Brewed 9/28/14. I accidentally under struck (153F instead of 163F) the water and had to top up with a gallon of boiling water (strike was 29 quarts then). Hit 147F which is a bit low but decided to leave it at that. I added more salts to adjust. I only recirculated about a half gallon because I didn't want to cool it too much. The pH ended up being 5.2. Not sure why as it was predicted to be 5.6 but that is an acceptable range. I decided to add a half ounce of hops at 90min to help prevent boil over. I ended up collecting about 9.75 - 10gal of wort. Pre-boil gravity was 1.064 which put the kettle efficiency at 79%. At about 20min left in the boil I cranked it up because I was worried there was too much wort still. Probably should not have done that as I ended up a bit short. I ended up with about 5.2 to 5.3 gallons in the fermenter. I topped off with prolly about a quart of water which in retrospect I didn't need to do as I am going to add corn sugar but oh well. OG was similar to what I predicted although I wanted to maybe get a bit better efficiency. Pitch was about 68F but I plan on fermenting it a bit lower. 9/29 I iced the brew down a bit last night and it was sitting at 65F in the morning. I also dosed it again with about a minute of oxygen. By evening it had risen up to about 67F so I cooled it down again to about 65F. 9/30 morining it had heated up to about 67F so I cooled it back down to about 63F. I iced it periodically throughout the day and by evening it was up to 67F so I cooled it down to about 65F. 10/1 by morning the beer was sitting at about 65F. I added the corn sugar mid day and it kicked the volume up to about 6gal. I put in a bit more % wise then I wanted to because of the dilution factor. By evening it had heated up to about 68F so I cooled it back down to about 65F. 10/2 the temp had risen up to about 67F by the morning. I am planning on just letting it rise up slowly. Fermentation on this beer hasn't been as vigorous as I expected. Maybe because I pitched so much yeast. 10/3 I have kept the fermentation temps below 70F and mostly hovering around 68F. 10/5 took the beer outta the swamp bath. Last couple of days it was hovering more around 70F. The ferm has slowed down but still going. 10/6 the brew is still fermenting but it has slowed a bit (not much yeast has settled out yet though), sitting at about 76F. 10/9 ferm is pretty much done, there is still a little bit of foamy krausen on the top though. 10/10 fermentation seems to have quelled. Took a gravity reading on 10/13 which makes it way drier than I expected. Guess maybe the low mash and corn sugar dried it out a bit and made it ferment more. Tasted the sample and it was quite alcoholic and possibly a bit cidery. 10/20 dry hopped. 10/24 I biofined the brew with 2 tbls. 10/26 cold crashed. Kegged on 10/28. 11/19 decided to dry hop it more with 3.5oz in the keg because hops are fading. Beer was initially very boozy and dry but after a couple weeks in the keezer it blended together really nicely and is malty and a bit hoppy. Most dynamic change flavor wise I have ever seen in a beer. |  |

                | Notes: Mash pH was too low at 5.03 
 I used 6 teaspoons of Bali Blue Moon coffee from Island Roasters, a local coffee shop in New Smryna Beach, FL. It's roasted at Light Vienna, which I believe is somewhere on the medium roast spectrum. I had it coarse ground and added it directly to a fine mesh bag, added a sanitized spoon for weight, and added it directly to the keg while I cold crashed and carbonated.
 It was in the keg for 48 hours at 15psi before removal. I think the keg pressure helped extract the coffee flavor. I used unflavored dental floss tied to the string of the bag so that I could retrieve the bag when I was ready.
 
 
 After talking with other brewers about this beer I think I may have had a little luck on my side in using ground coffee instead of cold brew coffee. Next time I'll probably get a good quality fresh cold brew from somewhere nearby and add it to the keg to taste. Just my 2 cents.

 Cinnamon stick, vanilla bean, cacao nibs and ancho chiles (dried and deseeded) are used to make a tincture in vodka (just enough to cover each adjunct) during end of primary fermentation.  Add tincture when racking to keg.

                | Notes: Scaled down to a 2 gallon recipe for testing the recipe. The original recipe calls for 5.5 gallons. 
 Add hops per the 60 minute boil schedule.
 Once the boil is over, put your kettle to cool down to 67 degrees. 20 minutes after the cool down started (and most likely has ended) move the work to your primary fermenter, then add the cascade and gently swirl back and forth.
 
 After several minutes, pitch your yeast and cap with your airlock.
 
 After 8 days (or once fermentation has ended for you) add the Cascade Dry hops directly into your primary fermenter (or if you have a secondary fermenter, add there), and swirl gently back and forth for about 2 minutes, then place the airlock back on and let sit for ~7 days for best results.

                | Notes: The crushed carapils were steeped for 30 min. at 155 degrees.  Sparge the grain with 1 quart of 170 degree water.  Add water to bring volume in boil kettle to 3 gallons.  Add malt extract and bring to a boil.  Add bittering hops and boil for 60 min. At 30 min. add irish moss. Add finishing hops at last 2 min. of boil. 
 This wort was put into primary for 1 week and then cold crashed for 5 days.  It was then racked to a secondary fermenter and 4.5 lbs of frozen blackberries were added.  By freezing the berries before adding, more juice will be released into the beer.  When the berries are frozen and the water volume in the fruit expands it breaks the skins.  When they thaw more juice is released into the beer.  You will want to cold crash your wort or use another method to floculate the yeast.  Otherwise the fruit will ferment as well and create a winey taste.  The beer will need to remain in secondary for around a week to get a good flavor.  I left mine in for 7 days, but you can decide when there is enough blackberry flavor for your liking.  Transfer to a clean fermenter and transfer to your keg.  This beer is meant to be kegged because there is no longer enough active yeast to bottle condition.
 
 Enjoy!!

                | Notes: 1. Be sure to crush the oat malt well as it tends to crush differently than the barley. 2. Add wheat flour to the mash.  If not doing BIAB add rice hulls. (Some say add the flour to the boil, but my experience is that it doesn't dissolve and just creates dough ball lumps.)
 3. Do a high temp mash.  You may need to mash for 90 minutes.
 4. Use around a 1:2 sulfate to chloride water profile.
 5. Add green apple puree with 20 minutes left in the boil.  This adds pectin to create haze and body.
 6. Add the lactose sugar with 10 minutes left in the boil.
 7. Add whirlpool hops slowly over a 45 minute period starting at flameout, keeping the whirlpool moving the whole time.
 8. Add half of dry hops in 2-3 days, when the krausen is still high.
 9. 4-6 days later, when fermentation is mostly done, rack into a secondary and add vanilla bean, mango pulp, and ground green cardamom.  (Can skip secondary and add it right to the primary if you have enough head room.)
 10. Allow to condition on the fruit alone for 4-6 days, then add the rest of the dry hops.
 11. Cold crash and package 4-8 days later.
 
 Target starting fermenter volume is 6+ gallons to end up with 5 gallons after all the loss to dry hopping and fruit.  Use at least a 6.5 gallon fermenter. Add a few drops of Fermcap-S to prevent blowoff.
