Notes: Samuel Adams Brewing Company: Double Agent IPL clone
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.053 FG = 1.015
IBU = 43 SRM = 10 ABV = 5%

Ingredients
7.7 lbs. (3.5 kg) 2-row pale malt (2 °L)
3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg) Munich malt (10 °L)
6.3 AAU Zeus pellet hops (60 min.) (0.4 oz./11 g at 15.8% alpha acids)
1.4 AAU Citra® pellet hops (15 min.) (0.1 oz./3 g at 13.7% alpha acids)
1.3 AAU Simcoe® pellet hops (15 min.) (0.1 oz./3 g at 12.8% alpha acids)
1.9 AAU Ahtanum™ pellet hops (15 min.) (0.4 oz./11 g at 4.7% alpha acids)
3.8 AAU Simcoe® pellet hops (5 min.) (0.3 oz./9 g at 12.8% alpha acids)
2.5 AAU Cascade pellet hops (5 min.) (0.4 oz./11 g at 6.3% alpha acids)
0.5 tsp. yeast nutrients (15 min.)
0.5 oz. (14 g) Centennial pellet hops (dry hop)
0.5 oz. (14 g) Simcoe® pellet hops (dry hop)
0.5 oz. (14 g) Nelson Sauvin pellet hops (dry hop)
0.5 oz. (14 g) Cascade pellet hops (dry hop)
White Labs WLP830 (German Lager), Wyeast 2206 (Bavarian Lager) or Mangrove Jack Bohemian Lager yeast (~ 4 qts./3.9 L starter, or 2 sachets dry yeast)
2/3 cup (133 g) dextrose (if priming)

Step by Step
Mix the crushed grains with 4.5 gallons (17 L) of 165 °F (74 °C) strike water to stabilize the mash at 153 °F (67 °C). Hold at this temperature for 45 minutes. Vorlauf for 15 minutes then begin sparge. Run off into kettle to collect enough wort for a pre-boil gravity of 1.042 (about 6 gallons/19 L). Boil for 60 minutes. Add hops and yeast nutrients according the ingredients list. Turn off the heat, stir the wort for a minute to create a whirlpool and let settle for 15 minutes. Cool the wort to around 53–55 °F (12–13 °C), aerate, and pitch yeast. Ferment at 57 °F (14 °C) for 2 weeks or until signs of fermentation slow down. Rack to a secondary and lager for 3 weeks at 40 °F (5 °C). Add the dry hops for the final week of the lagering phase. If signs of diacetyl are apparent during racking, a diacetyl rest is recommended. Give the beer 2 days at 70 °F (21 °C) to allow the yeast to process any diacetyl before racking over to the secondary vessel. After the lager period is complete, bottle or keg and carbonate to 2.4 volumes of CO2.

Notes:
03/09/19 - subbed denali hops with galaxy - used bjorn kviek yeast

Kaffir Leaves: make an infusion by boiling 4 or 5 leaves (which are first torn into pieces) then added to a pint of boiling water(or enough water just to cover) and steeped until cooled - add to beer for 3 days

Beer description:
Pale ale full of tropical vibes from loads of aromatic american hops, balanced with kaffir lime leaves. All backed up with a hint of malty sweetness. A light Summer Ale to enjoy over the long evenings. Can’t promise you an escape, but will take you a pint closer to the paradise!

Notes: October 30, 2015

-1.061 (15 Brix)
-Yeast: 20g S-04 (rehydrated in 250ml water) at 1AM at approx 62F (17C)
-Fermenter set at 60F (15C)

-A combination of better-than-usual efficiency and more boil-off than expected lead to a substantial jump in SG. I considered adding water to bring it to 5.25 gallons, but decided against it. 1.061 isn't bad for the style.

-Visible signs of fermentation and airlock activity within 6 hours.

-Small krausen developing at 16+ hours. Very steady airlock activity. Airlock smells of whole grain bread and dark fruit (dark cherries, plums).

-Full krausen, extremely vigorous fermentation at 36 hours. Airlock still smells of dark fruit and bread, but spicy hop aromas are more evident than before.

-Airlock activity slowing down, krausen beginning to fall at approx 54 hours. Temp has been constant between 59-61F.

-November 2: Krausen fallen before 72 hour mark. Airlock still active, but minimal. Temp raised to approx 64F (17.6C) to encourage yeast to finish up before dropping out.

November 5: Temp raised to 68-70 (approx 20.8C) to encourage full attenuation and diacetyl rest. Increased airlock activity a few hours after temp increase.

November 8: Reduced temp to approx 64F (18C) after diacetyl rest. Airlock activity is minimal, but still around 3 bubbles/min. Krausen has long since fallen, but beer has not yet dropped fully clear.

November 14: F.G. 1.016 - 5.89% alcohol. Crystal clear. Smells and tastes great. Plenty of body, with just enough bitterness to balance it out at the finish. Spicy Fuggle hop character. Very little, if any, S-04 "bubblegum" character - although the beer does have a pleasant, stone fruit-like, English character. Solid malt backbone although it is distinctly less bready, and overall less complex, than WY1968. Will allow to sit in primary for another week or so before adding gelatin and bottling.

-November 24: Bottled 4 gallons with 2oz. table sugar for approx 2 volumes of carbonation. Beer tastes good. Nice body, balancing bitternes - but with a distinct 'candy' character that I can only think is a product of S-04 or green beer character. Hoping it fades with time and bottle conditioning. Crystal clear. As aforementioned, much less complex and bready than WY1968.

December 17: I tasted one of these today only to find that the beautiful malt and hop flavor is masked by my most-dreaded of all off-flavors: plasticy phenols. It's not undrinkable, however, and I will wait it out and hope that it dissipates (or perhaps it was only that one bottle?) but needless to say I'm disappointed with this beer. Did I stress the yeast somehow? Regardless, and even though it may not be an issue with the yeast, I will never use Safale S-04 again. Some people love that yeast but I've never made a beer with it that I really like.

December 18: Drank another one tonight. Same thing - plasticy phenols masking malt and hop character. It's not unpleasant enough to dump, so I'll be drinking these off as quickly as possible to make room for new beer. Very frustrating.
