Brutzyme may not be necessary if lower mash temp yield good conversion of sugars. Aiming for FG below 1.020

Notes: the goal here isn't actually to clone pliny the elder, but rather to clone the clone that won the NHS gold medal.

Wyeast 1056 America Ale Yeast or White Labs WLP001 or Safale US-05

Water salts:
Gypsum: 11gm/ 8gm
Epsom salts: 4gm/ 3gm
Calcium chloride: 1.5gm/ 1gm
Lactic acid: 0

Directions:

Mash grains at 151-152° F (66-67° C) for an hour or until starch conversion is complete.

Mash out at 170° F (77° C) and sparge. Collect 8 gallons (30 L) of runoff, stir in dextrose, and bring to a boil. Add hops as indicated in the recipe. A 90 minute boil,

Our Whirlpool Meathod:

1. Add Whirlfloc/ yeast nutrient @5 mins left on boil
2. Add 0 min hop addition
3. cut flame/ heat and whirlpool with hops in kettle. Wait 10 minutes

Cold Crash after this rest period

chill wort to 67° F (19° C) and transfer to fermenter. Pitch two packages of yeast or a yeast starter and aerate well. Ferment at 67° F (19° C) until fermentation activity subsides, then rack to secondary.

Add first set of dry hops on top of the racked beer and age 7-9 days, then add the second set. Age five more days then bottle or keg the beer.

original recipe:
https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/pliny-the-elder-clone/

Minor hopping adjustments made to account for 10% reduction in weight due to using pellets, and then minor rounding for economy of hop acquisition. We used less gypsum than the recipe called for because the numbers were insane so I looked at other data from the original brewer as well as the cult of homebrewers cloning some of the commercial versions of Pliny the Elder over the years in regards to water profiles and came up with a middle ground that I'm more confident in.

"9.48 oz (269 g) corn sugar per 12.3 gallon carboy to prime
12 Tbs (177 mL) gypsum in mash" -original recipe

21.87g per US gallon
x1 gallon/3.79L
=
5.78g per liter
=
121g per 21L

21.87g per US gallon
6.07 gallon carboys
= 132.75g

we primed 1 fermentor with 121g and the other with 132.75g, since the original recipe has a bit of room for divergence here. Will see which we prefer and note it here later.

Notes: BIAB half of blended BIAB/Extract NEIPA. Same hop schedule used. All specialty grains are in this half. Five Star 5.2 PH stabilizer was used in mash. This caused soapy/acidic/phosphoric flavors. Another Extract only batch was made to blend with the blended batch to get rid of the off-flavor.

Notes: This turned out really well. I might drop the bittering hops a bit next time.. the hops flavor was good, but there was a lingering bitterness. It had a large lingering head, maybe I'd drop the carmunich back to 1/2 lb
