Notes: Brewed 1/30/22
OG 1.040. Flaked barley did not add any gravity points as this calculator suggested it would. Not an unexpected result. Set PPG to 0 to correct calculations.
IBU will be higher than desired (though still to style) due to this and the late addition of the 3.5lbs of the extract. Would have preferred ~30. Should have cut aroma hops in half to 0.5oz to compensate. Didn't think about it.
SRM much lighter than anticipated, estimated about 20. More of caramel color then the soft black I associate with an Irish dry stout. The roasted barley I purchased listed a lovibond of 480-720 but even 480L plugged into the calculator yielded an SRM of 27 so I'd guess it was more in the 300L rang. I was hoping for roasted barley at 600L for an SRM around 32. If I do this recipe again I'll up the roasted barley to 20oz for color.
Pitched one packet of rehydrated Nottingham yeast into fermenter at 56f.
Temperature briefly touched 62f early in fermentation but only briefly and primarily stayed 58-60f.
Sampled 2/6/22. Attenuated to 1.009. Slight sulfur aroma. Roasty, almost oatey with a distinct lactic acid tang. Nicely dry. The flaked barley and acidulated malt feel like they're working together to make a creamy taste without the texture.
Sampled 2/9/2022. Attenuated to 1.008. Probably the end of the road. Sulfur smell almost completely dissipated. Very pleasant taste. Tastes of coffee and oatmeal with just a hint of cream and tart fruit.
Note: The color means I'm probably going to call this an Irish Dry Ale. The flavor and everything else is to style but I can't imagine calling something this light a stout.

Did manual whirlpool which meant it sat at highish temps for extra 15 mins - ??Increased bitterness. |

Steep grains in 2 gal water at 160 F for 20 minutes. Sparge grains. Remove from burner, add LME and bring to boil. Add Hallertau hops in hop bag and boil for 45 minutes. Add Huell hops to hop bag and boil 15 minutes (total boil of 60 minutes).
Remove kettle from burner and let cool for 10 minutes. Add wort to primary fermenter, which has 3 gallons cold, sanitized water. Mix to aerate. Let cool to below 80 F, then pitch yeast.
Primary fermentation at approx 66 degrees F. Roused yeast in fermentor at the 1 week mark. Used open fermentation process, covered fermentor with mesh cloth for first few days, then lightly covered fermentor with plastic lid. Skimmed krausen on day 2 and day 3. Nine days in primary fermentation, then into secondary for 24 hours, then bottled with 5.4 oz corn sugar, boiled in 1 pint water.
Use of the Huell Melon hops is an experiment, which was suggested by my LBS, to add a slight profile of melon and tropical fruit. Added the Belgian CaraVienne to add just a bit of a darker, rich color for a winter brew.
Numbers were off just a bit from the auto calc...
OG - 1.048
FG - 1.008

Bottle condition at 72 F for 1 week, then store at 68 F. |

Yeast: Gozdawa lager yeasts 7g
Fermentation in FV for 6 weeks, not 2-3 weeks as is stated on can. Flavor and taste increasing from week 3 to week 6. Hoppiness only after week 4. Steep even longer than 6 weeks, use different yeast.
Used 1 kg Coopers beer enhancer no. 2 instead of 1 kg of DME. Priming with 150 g of dextrose pitched to beer not bottles.
I've bottled on may 20th 2017 and fist tryed it on may 31st. It's already a vey good beer. |
