Notes: Brewed on 9/1/2013. Strike water was 174 and hit right about 155F. Left for 10min and then recirculated about a gallon through to distribute evenly with preheated pyrex glass. The temp dropped it down to about 152F so I topped off with half gallon of boiling water which brought it to 153F. Stopped there because I didn't want to thin out the mash even more. I will have to figure out a way to prevent heat loss when recirculating. pH was 5.3 with the slightly thinned mash. Boil Kettle efficiency was 80%. Brew house efficiency was down this time. I am not sure why that would be but maybe it's because I had some wort left over in the kettle and thus didn't boil off enough. I did get my full wort volume without having to top off. I wonder if I should boil 8.25 gal in the future? Some hose water also got into the brew because I wasn't paying attention well enough to my hose attachments. Yeast took off within 8 hours. I looked at it and krausen has formed about 8 hours after. Temp was about 73F so I cooled it down to 68 as quickly as I could. It was about the same temp in the morning. I dropped some of the ice blocks in there in the middle of the night. At about mid afternoon on 9/2 it was at 66F. By the evening time it had climbed back up to 71F so I put some more ice packs in there and cooled it back down to 67F. I got a new tub insulator cover but I am not sure if it is actually doing all that much. I am hoping it isn't getting too crazy because of the temp fluctuation. Morning of 9/3 the beer had risen back up to 70F. I iced it back down to 68. I am wondering if the insulation is keeping the heat in too. Evening of 9/3 it had risen back up to 70F. Iced it down to about 67/68. 9/4 by morning the brew had creeped up to 70F again. I chilled it down to 68F. By evening it was back up to 70F so I dropped it to 67F. 9/5 let the temp go and by 9/7 it was up about 74F. Dry Hopped 9/8/2013. I realized that I swapped the yeast vials and used wlp001 instead of wlp051. Gravity reading on 9/16 put it at 1.014. Racked to keg on 9/18/13 after cold crashing for 2 days. |

Notes: Target FG: 1.030, 17%, IBU = 75. There might be need for using champagne yeast.
Mikeller uses:
Water, malt, roasted barley, flaked oats, dark cassanade, honey, hops, coffee, vanilla and ale yeast.
consider using a fan to drive off as much vapors as possible
hops added at 1.088
so it might be 110 IBU.
After brewing: multiple concentrated wort additions after 2 days of fermentation, together with brown sugar (cassanade) and a few coffee beans. |

Notes: Porter made from maple sap, no water. Added 1 pint of maple syrup (same farm as the sap) at FO. From what I have been able to read, the consensus seems to be that not much maple flavor will shine through unless you use a gallon or more at FO or in a secondary, which I do not plan to do. Worst case scenario, it the maple will not be noticeable, and I'll be left with a solid porter; tragic. Going to ferment at 64F for a week then go up to about 68 for the duration, prob 3 weeks total in primary. BTW, the recipe called for 1# 40L, but my store only had about a half pound, so on a whim, used 120L for the other half. Perhaps this will be a stout. |

Notes: Add Blackberries to secondary fermenter as you rack the beer. This should help prevent contamination from the blackberries as they will have possible yeast/bacteria on them. I suggest freezing the blackberries beforehand for better juice extraction. If possible wash them before this to reduce any bacteria/yeast that may be present. spraying the fruit with properly diluted star san may also aid in this prevention. Note that contamination in a fruit beer is always a possibility, we will just try and minimize that risk as much as possible. |
