Notes: 1. Finely (and I really do mean finely) dice your ginger and put into a steeping bag.
2. Cut your 6 lemons and 3 limes into quarters, squeezing each one into the water. Once squeezed, throw the slices in the water.
3. Add your 3 cinnamon sticks and 3 cloves.
4. Boil for 60 minutes.
5. Once 60 minutes has been reached, remove all of your steeping items and add your sugar. Boil an additional 10 minutes to sterilize the sugar.
Note: I found that by leaving the steeping items in the water, they tend to absorb the sugar, thereby affecting your gravity.
6. Dilute the wort with your other 2 gallons of water to chill it quicker. Aerate, then pitch your yeast.
7. Take continuous gravity readings, and stop around 1.011 or 1.010. The higher the gravity, the sweeter and more syrupy it will be. 1.011 is a good cross between sweet with just enough dryness.
8. Once FG is acheived, bottle using a plastic bottle to tell where your carbonation is at. Once carbonation has been acheived, pasteurize and you're done.
Other notes: Ginger and citrus slows the fermentation process, this can take up to a month or more, have patience and you'll get there.
I opted to use a champaigne yeast, as EC-1118 has almost no flavor profile, and has a huge ideal temperature range. This makes it easier to make this year-round. |

Notes: Make yeast start 2 days prior (first time using stir plate)
boil 4oz amber (10L) DME with 1/2 tsp yeast nutrient in 1000mL water for 15 mins. Chill and add to 1000mL erlenmeyer flask with magnet and place on stir plate.
Follow step-mash schedule for steeping grains
Skip the sparge, just add boiling sap to brew kettle to top off at 4.5 gallons
Add ~half (1.62 lbs) of DME after 15 mins of boil
Add remainder (2 lbs) with 15 mins left in boil
Add hops/extras per schedule
Chill to 70 and pitch yeast into 3 gallon carboy. Use blow-off tube, and switch to airlock after fermentation eases (2-3 days)
When fermentation complete, add 3.3 oz Black Walnut Syrup to bottling bucket (first boil the syrup in 2 cups water for 5 mins), and auto-siphon beer from carboy to bucket. Stir gently and bottle.

Notes: Made this for my wife who really enjoyed New Belgium's Snow day which appears to be discontinued. Was shooting for flavors of caramel, clove, orange peel and somewhat successfully accomplished this. Dry Hop addition added after tasting post fermentation found the beer was too sweet and simple.
Improvements:
Had to add a tincture of nutmeg/allspice/clove settled in whiskey for a week to add an extra punch of spice. Next time I'd add more spice during the boil and double the sweet orange peel. I'd also add some vanilla to taste at the bottling stage.
Closing notes:
Happy with the results, compared to other Winter Warmers this has more citrus/spice. Would like to play with water chemistry to see if the finish can be cleaned up. |
