Notes: I use two 11g packs of Nottingham =220 billion cells.
This is my MBC with cucumbers added...

Ferment low 60F for 5 days and then increase 2F daily until reaching 68F. At 14 days do a two day rest at 70F.

Cucumber Ale : After 3 weeks total, I "dry cuked" with 3 large cucumbers. Starsan knife and a new cutting board. Peal and cut cucumbers into thin round slices and add to fermentor for 5 days. I also cold crashed to 38 during these 5 days. Made this for a summer pool party everyone really liked this beer. It does have a fairly strong but not over powering cucumber flavor. Light body, easy drinking, and very flavorful beer.

Note: I use uncrushed instant rice added to the crushed grains, in place of the flaked rice.
The brewing salts are divided as indicated then added to the mash and the brew kettle (boil).

Notes: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/sierra-nevada-bigfoot-barleywine/

Recipe calls for:
1.0 lb (0.45 kg) English Crystal 75L malt
1.0 lb (0.45 kg) English Crystal 105L malt

I am using SImpsons Dark Crystal (70-80) and Simpsons DRC double roasted crystal (105-120) instead of 105L

Ferment at 68° F (20° C) until gravity drops to 1.020 (5° P), rack into secondary fermenter and dry hop for two weeks. Bottle, using dry malt extract to prime. Allow to age about 6 months to reach maturity.

Gravity was low. Had to boost with DME/corn sugar and even a little honey, but got it to 1.103. Dry hopped after only a week and bottled after 2 more weeks. FG on target at 1.020.

Now the wait...

Notes: The following beer recipe is featured in the July/August 2019 issue of Zymurgy magazine. Access this issue along with the archives with Zymurgy Online!

AHA member Marshall Bishop loves Tree House Julius so much that he has devoted untold hours to developing a faithful homebrew clone, the recipe for which he has kindly shared with us. Marshall offers helpful advice for brewing this recipe.

Water chemistry, a specific combination of yeasts, plus acids and essential oils from the hops combine to give this beer its hazy appearance. Tree House doesn’t use flaked grains.

Minimizing calcium in the brewing water contributes a soft mouthfeel. Hard water ions such as magnesium and calcium can contribute chalky, thick sensations – if you want softness in a beer, start with soft water. Using canning salt (sodium chloride) provides chloride without adding calcium.

The long whirlpool at 108°F (42°C) extracts and retains volatile hop flavor and aroma compounds that would otherwise evaporate at higher temperatures. You can replace the whirlpool with a hop stand to maximize contact between hops and wort, but you will get the best utilization from constantly stirring during whirlpool.

Dried yeast has sufficient sterols for healthy fermentation, so there’s no need to aerate or oxygenate. You want to stress the yeast enough to encourage ester production. Esters and other complex fruity, yeast-derived flavors match perfectly with the hop-derived fruity flavors and aromas. Resist the temptation to round up the specified quantities of WB-06 and T-58 if you can’t measure less than one gram, as these will dominate the clean strain and add too much farmhouse character.

Pitching warm and then cooling the fermentation encourages ester production while retaining volatile aromatic compounds. You still want some yeast activity when adding the dry hops, more to prevent oxidation than for any biotransformation mumbo jumbo.

Dry hopping in a mesh bag is not recommended. You’ll get better wort contact by letting the pellet hops dissolve and float free in the primary. Cold crashing won’t clear the beer of hop/polyphenol haze, but it will settle yeast.

Learn more about Marshall’s process at trinitybrewers.com.

Directions:

Mash at 156°F (69°C) for one hour, adjusting pH to 5.2 with citric acid if necessary. Mash out at 168°F (76°C). Fly sparge at 168-170°F (76-77°C). Don’t use Whirlfloc or Irish moss in the boil. Chill to 108°F (42°C) and add whirlpool hops, stirring or whirlpooling to keep hops in suspension for 60 minutes. Chill to 70°F (21°C) and pitch dry yeast blend; do not pitch more WB-06 and T-58 than specified, as they will dominate the clean base strain. There is no need to hydrate the dry yeast prior to pitching and no need to aerate or oxygenate the wort. After 24 hours, lower fermentation temperature gradually to 64°F (18°C) over a 60-hour period, let fermentation run at 64° F for 4-5 days depending on yeast activity, and then add the dry hops to primary and ferment to completion (usually about 2 days). Take care to minimize oxygen uptake at all times after fermentation. Cold crash to 32°F (0°C) for 2 days, then closed-transfer to a keg and force carbonate.

Notes: When primary fermentation is complete, split 2 nice fresh vanilla beans lengthwise. Scrape out and reserve all the seeds and "gunk" in them. Cut the pods into roughly 2-3" pieces and add the pods, seeds and "gunk" to a secondary fermenter. Leave them there until you get the amount of vanilla flavor you like. I usually start tasting at about a week and a half, and may leave them in until 2 weeks. You may want to let them go a bit more than you think is necessary since the vanilla flavor fades with time. When the beer is done in secondary, rack to a keg or bottling bucket with about 375 ml. of bourbon. I use Jim Beam Black. You don't need to use an exceptionally good bourbon. The bourbon flavor should integrate with the porter and vanilla flavors, not stand out and shout "Bourbon!" You can determine the amount of bourbon for your own tastes through the following method....pour 4 2 oz. samples of the beer that goes into the bottling bucket or keg. Dose each with a measured amount of bourbon. Taste them to decide which you like best, then scale that amount up to your batch size. This beers does not need, nor benefit from, extensive aging. Generally, I prefer it within a couple months of brewing.

Notes: This keto friendly all grain brew clocks in at around 100 calories and less than 5g carbs per 12 oz serving. (at least according to calculator at http://www.mrgoodbeer.com/carb-cal.shtml)
--
I am currently brewing my first batch, and it's about ready to be kegged. More updates to follow.

It's kegged and first impressions are positive. Will update again once its been carbonated and sampled by some friends and family.

After sharing it around some and drinking it myself for a few months I have to see this is an all around pleasant beer considering the carb constraints. The carbonation seemed laking in the beginning, but after fiddling with the gas tank about its really dialed in and delightful.
--
1. Treat 7.5 gallons
2. Add 2-Row and Dextrose to mash tun
3. Strike mash with 1.5 gallons of 155 deg water. Mash 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Vorlauf.
5. Add 6 gallons 155 deg water to sparge.
6. Bring to Boil, add 1oz of hops after 15 minutes, and another oz in the last 5 min. Boil 60 minutes total.
7. Transfer to fermenter and chill below 72 deg.
8. Aerate and add yeast nutrient, stir.
9. Pitch Yeast and add Amylase Enzyme.
10. Cold Crash the fermentation and keg it. Set the c02 to 12psi to promote carbonation for the next week or so.
11. Turn the psi down to about 5. Enjoy a pint.

Notes: The recipe does not say what the actual bittering hops are. It says the first two additions should to have 10 HBUs (same thing as AAU) and be split evenly at 45 minutes and 30 minutes. I left it at Hallertau.
