"Ultimate Homebrew Tasting NZ"

A full beans brew with over ripe orange and clementine aromas. Classic fruity, juicy NEIPA with saturated orange pulp hop flavours.

Notes: "A Bourbon Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stout, inspired from BCS"

## TODOs

- [x] oak + bourbon quantities and exposure time
- [x] grain bill and hops
- [x] yeast
- [x] aging vessels and process
- [x] account for impact of massive grain bill on process efficiency
- [x] Mash process and temp
- [x] Water chemistry
- [x] oak barrel
- [x] Bottling equipment (not enough flip tops this time)
- [x] get chalk
- [x] buy grain bill, DME and hops
- [ ] carbonation levels, qty of yeast to pitch for bottle conditioning and how to avoid bottle bombs

## RECIPE

for malt bill
https://www.homebrewhappyhour.com/bourbon-county-stout-clone-recipe/

for process
https://learn.kegerator.com/goose-island-bourbon-county-stout-clone/

## MALT

Mash the dark groans later in the mash to avoid astringency/tannins extraction

Grain bill from Hop and grain
Buy DME in case gravity needs to be seriously corrected

Base malt: 2row
Layers of toasty/biscuit/roasted/dark malts - Up to 20% of the bill

Expecting a ~15% drop in efficiency due to large grain bill (65% instead of 80%). The "11%" target accounts for eventual process undershooting or overshooting.

120 minutes mash - what temp?
Boil: 120 minutes

## WATER

"Kettle finings are a must"

## HOPS

60' and 45', aim for 60+ IBUs
Neutral tasting hop preferred, EK Goldings

## YEAST

"Pitch double yeast rate, for half sized batch"

US05 2pks + yeast nutrient + rehydration

Pitch temp 19-22C - violent fermentation, careful (use the 20L ferm bucket)

Aerate as per usual

## FERMENTATION AND AGING

### PRIMARY

~1 month, time it takes to finish primary fermentation.

### SECONDARY

Siphon in barrel. Keep excess beer for topping off the barrel (fight headspace). Prep the barrel as instructed, put in , shake and soak some bourbon after that and regularly rotate barrel to soak all places.

Rack in 2 * 5L glass carboy. Make two diff. aging:

Oak: American oak, medium toast cubes
Room temp fine if not too warm.

#### first carboy

3 months aging, then bottling
Per liter or beer: 2.7g Oak + 0.007L Bourbon

#### second carboy

6 months aging, then bottling
Per liter or beer: 1.5g Oak in 0.005L Bourbon

### CONDITIONING

Bottles. Might need to pitch fresh yeast on bottling day.

TODO: qty of yeast to pitch for bottle conditioning and how to avoid bottle bombs

Notes: Jäsning: 2017-04-27

Mäskning/Lakning i 30l kokkärl med cirkulation, utsug-pump-kokkärl, lauterhelix plus mäskpåse med grova hål i botten och finare på sidor. Fungerade riktigt bra!
Mäsk en timma. Lakning med utsug till jäshink. Landade på 26-27 liter.

Kokning i 45 minuter, glömde protafloc.

Tappning direkt efter kok till hopstand (30 liter kastrull med lauterhelix och 150g humle. Fick ligga i 10 minuter. Pump till värmeväxlare och till betterbottle. 18-19 liter. Vörten var ganska varm. Kanske pumpen körde för fort genot växlaren.

OG: 1.070
FG: 1017

Förslag på förbättringar : viktigast är att få i mer bitterhet . 10 min hopstand utan bitterhumle verkar vara på tok för lite . Även för lite humle arom, behöver nog torrhumlas under högre temp ( inte kombinera med kall-krash). Även jäsning under högre tempratur skulle nog gynna denna öl.

Notes: This is my attempt at a juicy hopped beer. I wanted hops up front and real grapefruit tartness. Therefore I blended in a tiny bit of real hard cider juice. AS soon as I finished this in my primary, I reused the yeast by pouring in 3 gallons of apple juice in the jug, I then waited for the yeast to get into high gear, about 1-2 days, then I poured in 2 gallons of Grapefruit juice. After both were fully brewed in secondaries I started taste tests. I ended up transferring 32 ounces of hard Grapefruit cider back into my 5 gallons of Grapefruit IPA. My thought is this, if it says its grapefruit, then by all means it needs to contain the real deal. This has turned out amazing! I may try like Vermont style yeast next but other than that, I'd keep it the same. I do believe that by adding the cider, it softened the IBUs but I did hop the cider quite a bit with same hop types.
